Abstract
GOMEZ ECHEVERRI, Luis Fernando; RIOS OSORIO, Leonardo and ESCHENHAGEN DURAN, María Luisa. Proposal of some general principles for the science of agroecology: a reflection. Rev. Lasallista Investig. [online]. 2017, vol.14, n.2, pp.212-219. ISSN 1794-4449. https://doi.org/10.22507/rli.v14n2a20.
Several authors have presented agroecology as a science based on principles. However, there is not agreement on what are the basic principles of agroecology. Also, some of the principles have been formulated in a way that does not correspond to what a scientific principle is. For this reason, a critical review of theoretical literature was conducted in order to establish the basic principles of agroecology. Seven principles that can work as hard core of theory of agroecology.
Keywords : Sustainable agriculture; biomimicry; agroecological principles; biodiversity.
