         <title>A Flowering Industry</title>
         <description><![CDATA[As the national industry producing anti-malaria medicine matures, farmers are meeting the demand by growing artemesia which pays more than tilling Uganda's dark soil for food crops. From Chien-Chi Chang's trip in Uganda, exploring the many facets of malaria with writer Kyu-Young Lee, here are three examples of older entrepreneurs who have changed their businesses in response to the country's needs.

     <description>&lt;p&gt;Está situación es parecida a los agricultores que siembran maiz o caña para producir Etanol&lt;br /&gt;
o los campesinos de Ecuador, Bolivia o la misma Colombia que siembran Coca para que le pagen altos precios por un monocultivo. Al fin, todo productor está al merced de los grandes capos, que son los que comercializan el producto final, es el caso de los agricultores en la provincia de Tarragona, España que siembran la avellana desde hace siglos y tienen que vender toda su produccion a la Nestle, ya que nadie más puede competir con esa empresa que tiene el monopolio.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
