Etnobotánica del Darién Caribe colombiano : los frutos del bosque

ABSTRACT: The article presents the relationships established between the residents of San Francisco de Asís, in the Colombian Caribbean Darien, and their ecological context, regarding the use of wild fruits and introduced fruit species as strategies of self-sufficiency. From an ethnobotanical perspective and with an agroecological approach, it reports and discusses observed ecosystem changes, as well as practices that counter traditional environmental management, and agricultural challenges brought up by those changes. In a multicultural context composed of African descendents, peasants from coastal savannas and Andean migrants, conservation processes involve the absence of the State, illegal economy and generational shifts that reveal different expectations and contradictions.
