Description: Eco Ruralis is an association of farmers that practice organic farming and follow traditional principles of environmental awareness. It was established in April 2009 in Cluj Napoca, bringing together farmers from all over the country. Eco Ruralis fights for the right of farmers to practice agriculture on a small, non-industrial scale.This includes the right to use, multiply, and distribute traditional seeds and the strict regulation of biosecurity (GMOs); the organization supports food sovereignty in Romania and consumer health. Its vision is an equitable and ecologically sustainable society where peasants are at the heart of the food system. Its mission is to support and promote agroecological small-scale family farming as the ideal mode of agriculture in Romania. Its activities include educational programs for the public, participatory research programs in the field of traditional seeds in partnership with universities, and advocacy for the right of farmers to use traditional seeds and against the authorization of new GMOs.
