Saberes migrantes. Trayectorias de productores bolivianos del periurbano platense

La actividad hortícola del periurbano platense comenzó a modernizarse desde los años 80, hasta convertirse en el área hortícola más productiva, capitalizada y un referente tecnológico del país. En estos años, los migrantes bolivianos de origen campesino se convirtieron en sus principales productores. Nos centramos en los debates acerca de la expansión de la Revolución Verde y los cambios culturales que esta significó para la agricultura familiar. Nos preguntamos ¿qué pasa con los saberes y prácticas agrícolas a lo largo de las trayectorias de migrantes bolivianos por diferentes espacios geográficos y productivos? Partimos de la idea de ?trayectorias? de Bourdieu para analizar dicho proceso a partir de la superación de dualismos; es decir, considerando la estructura y el individuo en relación dialéctica. Y desde la técnica de ?historias de vida? analizamos las trayectorias de un grupo de productores de las localidades de Abasto y Etcheverry, que comenzaron su recorrido en Tarija y Chuquisaca (sur de Bolivia), pasaron por las zonas hortícolas de nuestro país (NOA, NEA y Cuyo) y finalmente se establecieron en la actividad hortícola platense

Agroindústria familiar : Um mecanismo de estímulo à especialização das atividades na propriedade rural?

Family agroindustry has been considered by several authors as an important reproduction alternative for family-based agriculture. However, this production process, which includes primary (production of raw-materials) and secondary (industrialization of production) activities, is generating a general concern. Can agroindustry, by promoting non-agricultural income for farmers, cause a reduction or, in extreme cases, an extinction of agricultural production in farm estates developing industrialization activities for selling in markets (family agroindustries)? In this sense, the purpose of this research was to analyse whether agroindustry can promote specialisation in family-based farm estates, or whether it is a form of economic diversification, being merely an activity similar to those developed in farm estates before the emergence of this process. The empirical study was conducted in 45 family agroindustries of sugarcane derivatives located in the Northeast of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil).
