Open design communities design for inclusion, modularity, bio-degradability, the shared use of machinery and combined with distributed microfactories, prefigure a demand-based economy {\textquoteright}of scope{\textquoteright} that aims to replace a suppy-driven economy {\textquoteright}of scale{\textquoteright}. This intervention will offer a tour of such open agricultural machining communities, contextualized within the FLOK transition program towards a peer-based social knowledge economy underwritten by the government in Ecuador (floksociety.org).},
