Melisa Longo Blasón

I designed and executed a field study focused on local family farming systems. My methodology included conducting comprehensive agrobiodiversity inventories and semi-structured interviews with farming families. By triangulating interview data with secondary sources, I reconstructed a 15-year history of the local farmers' market. Additionally, I performed a comparative analysis of crop yields and prepared goods across two seasons to evaluate shifting market trends and the long-term decision-making processes that sustain domestic food production.
