Parex supports the strengthening of agricultural productive projects in Casanare

With the aim of boosting the regional economy by promoting initiatives that enhance social capital and productive activity in Casanare, Parex Resources Colombia, a company affiliated with the ACP and a partner of Ecopetrol in the Llanos 122 project, supports the strengthening of agricultural productive projects of four associations in the municipality of Yopal, in coordination with the Municipal Administration.

More than 450 inhabitants of the capital of Casanare will benefit directly from this management; thanks to an approximate contribution of $300 million, the Agricultural Association (ASOMACANA), the Agricultural Association of the Corregimiento of Punto Nuevo, the Beekeepers Association of Yopal Corregimientos of Tacarimena and Punto Nuevo, and the Association of Cattle Ranchers and Agricultural Producers of the Piedemonte (ASOGAMP) will access agricultural machinery and equipment that will allow them to improve the profitability of their production systems and optimize the implementation of strategies for the sustainable management of livestock and agricultural production, seeking to strengthen the production and marketing of their products.

“The communities prioritized the line of productive units, today supported by Parex. My enormous gratitude to this company for reinforcing its social contributions,” stated Luis Eduardo Castro, mayor of Yopal.

For his part, Alfonso Leguizamo, a beneficiary of the project, expressed, “I want to give a very special thanks to Parex for providing us with 10 beehives for 20 users, benefiting us economically and contributing to the environment.”.

With initiatives like these, the company promotes the generation of shared benefits and the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG1: No poverty) and (SDG8: Decent work and economic growth) and reaffirms its commitment to generating well-being, progress, and competitiveness in the areas where it operates.
