The importance of soil studies in basic education: Knowledge necessary for sustainable development

Basic knowledge about the soil where one lives is of paramount importance for the education of new generations in Amazonas, considering that it is the place where people produce part of the food they need for themselves and their families. and, consequently, it is from the production relationships they establish in the localities where they live that the men and women of Amazonas must build and rebuild their histories as autonomous individuals who deal with the soil. Given this, there is a need for the region's educational system to implement, through the school curriculum, content that deals more explicitly with the study of soil, more specifically in the Amazon region.
