Vloga permakulture v portugalski lokalni skupnosti Benfeita

Mislej, Jernej (avtor), Vintar Mally, Katja (mentor)

Permakultura je nastala ob koncu 70. let 20. stoletja v Avstraliji kot odgovor na čedalje vidnejšo okoljsko in socialno problematiko v svetu, v katerem je glavno vodilo gospodarska rast. Permakulturniki se zavzemajo za načrtovanje in vzpostavitev raznolikih, stabilnih, odpornih in naravnih človekovih habitatov in delovanje po etičnih načelih permakulture: skrb za Zemljo, skrb za ljudi in načelo pravične delitve dobrin. Ideja permakulture se je iz Avstralije širila po svetu. Med drugim tudi na Portugalsko, kjer se v zadnjih letih število permakulturnih projektov in ljudi, ki se permakulturnega načrtovanja poslužujejo, povečuje. Tak projekt je tudi permakulturna kmetija Quinta do Vale v župniji Benfeita, kjer sem opravil terensko raziskavo z namenom spoznati delovanje kmetije in značilnosti lokalne skupnosti. Na podlagi analize podatkov, ki sem jih pridobil s pomočjo opazovanja z udeležbo ter z intervjuji z lastnico kmetije, udeleženci PDC-ja in prebivalci lokalne skupnosti, sem ugotovil, da kmetija Quinta do Vale deluje po permakulturnih načelih, je do določene mere samooskrbna s hrano in energetskimi viri ter pomembno vpliva na lokalno skupnost.

Izvleček

Permaculture was created at the end of the 1970s in Australia as a response to increasingly visible environmental and social problems in a world in which economic growth was the main guiding principle. Permaculturists are committed to planning and establishing diverse, stable, resilient and natural human habitats and operating according to the ethical principles of permaculture: care for the Earth, care for people, and the principle of fair sharing of goods. The idea of permaculture spread from Australia around the world. In Portugal, among others, the number of permaculture projects and people who use permaculture planning has been increasing in recent years. The Quinta do Vale permaculture farm in the parish of Benfeita is such a project. Here, I conducted field research, the purpose of which was to learn about the operation of the farm and the characteristics of the local community. Based on the analysis of data obtained through participant observation and interviews with the owner of the farm, PDC participants and residents of the local community, I found that the Quinta do Vale farm operates according to permaculture principles, is to a certain extent self-sufficient in food and energy resources, and has a significant impact on the local community.
