SAN VICENTE, MISIONES, ARGENTINA - NOVEMBER 2012: Francisco prepares his spraying backpack with gliphosate for the spraying of his field. Local farmers use agrochemicals to cultivate their properties, following the guidelines established by the cooperatives of large local producers, who demand the use of these agrochemicals as a condition for the purchase of their crop. These agrochemicals include gliphosate and 2.4 D, a derivative of Agent Orange. The financial cost of these products always falls on small producers, who only retain 40% of the crop value, which has been unilaterally established by the cooperatives of large producers.
