    Lightbulb Can someone help with this text!

    A partir de las diversas crisis económicas por las que el campo mexicano ha atravesado, así como la escasez de agua y tierra, el gobierno mexicano implementó la Estrategia Nacional de Agricultura Protegida (promoción de la produccion agrícola en invernaderos). El objetivo es impulsar no solo el rendimiento sino el desarrollo local en los enclaves productivos. Una característica de esta actividad es que involucra principalmente mano de obra femenina joven, similar al impulso que en 1980 tuvo la industria maquiladora de exportación (Lara, 1993). Si bien la maquila tuvo impacto económico, también generó efectos poco satisfactorios ya que estimuló la migración, abandonando las mujeres sus lugares de origen y enfrentando diferentes riesgos como los feminicidios en Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, entre otros. A diferencia de las fuentes de trabajo anteriores, la agricultura protegida busca retener a la población local y desarrollar de manera coordinada con sus principales actores políticos y sociales, estrategias para mejorar su calidad de vida más allá de resolver el problema económico.

    Hi Eréndira,
    Normally you shouldn't post a full article like that, but I'm practising for a translation exam, so I'm feel ing generous :-)

    After the various economic crises that the Mexican land has gone through, such as shortages of water and land, the Mexican government implemented the National Strategy for Protected Agriculture (promoting agricultural production in greenhouses). The goal is not only to boost production, but also local development in productive areas. One characteristic of this activity is that it principally involves young female labour, in a similar way to the boom that the exporting assembly plant industry experienced in 1980 (Lara, 1993). Although the assembly plants had an economic impact, they also generated unfortunate side effects in that they stimulated migration, causing women to leave their areas of origin and run various risks such as the 'feminicides' (murders of women) in the cities of Juarez and Chihuahua, among others. In contrast to former sources of employment, protected agriculture seeks to retain the local population and develop strategies in a coordinated way with the main socio-political actors in order to improve their standard of life beyond resolving the economic problem.

    Hope that helps you,

    Jonathan
