Territorial Regenerative Farming Systems in the Amazon and Andes: The ATA–LxC Engineering Framework for Carbon-Positive Biomass and Food Sustainability

Resumen

This article presents the ATA System (Amazon Tambo Aldea) as a strategic regenerative platform designed to operate in high-biodiversity territories such as the Peruvian Amazon, applying LxC Engineering (Life per Carbon). This approach is grounded in the PCRC (Physicochemical Carbon Regeneration Cycle), which transforms captured CO2 and solar energy into useful biomass, living energy, and social cohesion through thermodynamically and biologically quantifiable processes. Using a modular intervention structure of 24 hectares per ATA unit, the model enables ecosystem restoration, job creation, and maximization of environmental, social, and economic returns without deforestation. The methodological architecture integrates the CUPA cycle (Calculate, Understand, Plan, Act), the 9SP canvas (Nine Strategic Pillars), the Value Chase (VC) adapted from QFD, and the ROP (Return of Operational Performance) indicator. The system is validated at three levels: Technical: through indicators such as Marginal Consumption (CM), Marginal Benefit (BM), and ROP. Territorial: through projective simulations demonstrating scalability. Academic: with international recognition, including first place at IEOM 2023. The ATA System demonstrates the feasibility of redesigning degraded territorial processes into sustainable regenerative models, enabling multicapital traceability, community participation, and measurable impact.
