2020-2021年，新型冠状病毒疫情危机加剧了霸权农业综合企业模式的危害，同时也为替代方案提供了机会。早在危机发生之前，拉丁美洲民间社会网络就一直在建立一个基于农业生态的团结经济（简称EcoSol-agroecology）。这些网络通过短食品供应链（circuitos curtos）将农业生态生产方法与集体营销联系起来，与消费者建立了更密切的关系。尽管政府的政策不利，而且新型冠状病毒（COVID-19，即2019冠状病毒病）也存在障碍，但这些举措已经扩大。这种扩张被广泛理解为加强了社会的接近性。作为对这方面的分析贡献，EcoSol-Agroecology网络建立了一种“邻近经济”，其基础是互助、民主自我管理、妇女领导、粮食安全和生物多样性资源保护等邻近目的。这些团结的目的有助于激活其他邻近性（地理，组织，机构和文化），同时也将它们联系起来。集体能力以特定的方式发展了这些接近性。这一战略视角为巴西Baixada Pasta地区的EcoSol-agroecology网络提供了信息，该地区是本案例研究中基层声音的所在地。不同的贡献已被纳入一个复合文化，作为一个象征性的归属地。随着全球精英在2019冠状病毒病大流行后寻求恢复占主导地位的农业食品体系，一个不同的未来取决于建立EcoSol-Agroecology的社会接近度。
In 2020–2021 the Covid-19 crisis worsened the harms from the hegemonic agribusiness model, while also providing opportunities for alternatives. Since long before the crisis, Latin American civil society networks had been building an agroecology-based solidarity economy (here EcoSol-agroecology for short). These networks have linked agroecological production methods with collective marketing through short food-supply chains (circuitos curtos), establishing closer relationships with consumers. Such initiatives have been expanded, despite adverse government policies and Covid-19 obstacles. This expansion has been widely understood as strengthening social proximities. As the analytical contribution here, EcoSol-agroecology networks build an ‘economy of proximity’, based on proximate purposes such as mutual aid, democratic self-management, women's leadership, food security and biodiverse resource conservation. These solidaristic purposes help to activate other proximities (geographical, organisational, institutional, and cultural), while also linking them. Collective capacities have developed those proximities in context-specific ways. This strategic perspective has informed EcoSol-agroecology networks in Brazil's Baixada Santista region, the site of grassroots voices in this case study. Diverse contributions have been integrated into a composite culture as a symbolic site of belonging. As global elites seek to restore the hegemonic agri-food system after the Covid-19 pandemic, a different future depends on building the social proximities of EcoSol-agroecology.
