El sector agropecuario a nivel mundial, y a nivel de Latinoamérica y de México en específico, es muy importante por el aumento creciente de población, y por tanto de las necesidades de alimentación, pero es uno de los sectores que más funciona con un sistema de producción lineal, en vez de circular. Esto provoca que se genere una gran cantidad de residuos, que por su mala disposición puede provocar contaminación al agua, al suelo y muy especialmente atmosférica. Por tanto, es imprescindible ayudar a que los sistemas agropecuarios tiendan a cerrar el ciclo de materia y así disminuir sus impactos ambientales y obtener un mayor rendimiento en el sistema. Todo ello contribuirá a conocer cómo contribuir a la economía circular desde el sector agropecuario. En este artículo se presenta el estudio hecho con tres granjas experimentales en el estado de Guanajuato (México). Se diagn...

: The agricultural sector is very important worldwide, in Latin America and Mexico, due to increasing population and therefore the need for food. But this sector works mainly as a linear production system, instead of a circular one. This causes the generation of large amount of waste, which can cause water, soil and, especially, atmospheric pollution if not disposed correctly. It is therefore essential to help agricultural systems to close the material cycle and thus reduce environmental impacts and obtain a higher performance in the system. This will help to knowing how to contribute to the circular economy in the agricultural sector. This article presents the study carried out with three experimental farms in the state of Guanajuato (Mexico). The farms were diagnosed qualitatively and quantitatively, the valuation of wastes already done in the farms was detected, and new valuations wer...
