Brazilian family farms go high tech | Latin America & Caribbean: Opportunities for All The Meyer family from Anitapolis, Santa Catarina, southern Brazil A rude awakening by geese screaming at my door was not the way I envisioned starting my day. With temperatures near freezing, the 6.00 AM milking session seemed a daunting first task in my 12-hour internship as a family farmer in Santa Catarina, Brazil. Luckily, after making it out the door with multiple layers of clothing, I was received by a warm “chimarrao” (a caffeine-rich infused drink typical of Southern Brazil) served by Zenaide Meyer. I was there to try to understand how a family farmer makes decisions about adopting new technologies. Within 20 minutes, all 40 cows were milked with new equipment the family acquired two months before with support from the SC Rural Program. At 20 years old, Cleyton participated in a training program for young farmers that was also supported by the SC Rural Program. Many other family-run farms in Anitapolis have adopted new technologies in recent years. But this, too, has changed.

UNDP Jobs Child labour in Mexico "Education for everyone" has been a popular slogan since the Mexican revolution more than 100 years ago. But according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, eight out of 100 Mexican children who enroll in elementary school do not show up for classes. While barely 50 complete middle school, 20 graduate from high school, 13 get a bachelor's degree, and only two become graduate students. A study released by UNESCO last year says the children who don't attend school are mostly working. That means Mexico has one of the largest child labour forces in Latin America, second only to Colombia. Many of Mexico's youths who don't attend school work in plantations. Talk to Al Jazeera travelled to the coastal state of Veracruz to meet some Mexicans who have traded classrooms and pencils for sugar cane fields and machetes. Sixteen-year-old Albino was just 12 when he became a plantation worker. Albino sees his family every 20 days. Source: Al Jazeera
