A live fences project in Ecuador sought to associate the idea of environmental recovery, characterized by an agro-ecological focus, with a perspective of socio-economic development. Cultivation of a Opuntia cactus and the cocheneal insect, environmentally and culturally adapted to the region, permitted the recovery of several degraded areas.
