Sustainability of Local Cattle Production Systems in Hopelchén, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico
A global trend in meat consumption has led to an increase in the amount of land used for extensive cattle production, causing deforestation and climate change. Cattle production is also one of the main sources of monetary income for rural families in low- and middle-income countries, including Mexico. However, agri-industrialization is transforming local production systems and threatening their sustainability. We used the Sustainability Assessmen…

Sustainability evaluation of contrasting milpa systems in the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico
The milpa agroecosystem is an intercropping of maize, beans, squash and other crops, developed in Mesoamerica, and its adoption is widely variable across climates and regions. An example of particular interest is the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, which holds highly diverse milpas , drawing on ancestral Mayan knowledge. Traditional milpas have been described as sustainable resource management models, based on long rotations within a slash-and-burn …
Back to the roots
In the middle of the last century, there were two types of agronomic scientists in Mexico. One group perceived traditional agriculture as backward and in need of modernization with advanced technologies. The other group, engaged in intensive fieldwork, studied and found inspiration in peasant and indigenous systems. This latter group of researchers who studied and described the biocultural richness of these systems provided the foundations for th…

Payments for Environmental Services
The Nevado de Toluca National Park, Mexico, performs important support, regulation, natural production, and cultural functions. Today these functions are severely endangered by the use of the Park's natural resources by people living within and near the National Park. Do payments for environmental services (PES), including schemes for carbon sequestration, offer alternatives that enhance livelihood options for local people and at the same time co…
Evolución y uso del agua de riego en los sistemas campesinos de producción de leche del noroeste del Estado de México
Se analiza en retrospectiva, la evolución del sistema de riego y la actividad agropecuaria en la región noroeste del estado de México. Se emplearon diversas estrategias de análisis a partir de información proporcionada por dependencias gubernamentales, entrevistas a informantes clave, así como la aplicación de cuestionarios a productores que hicieron uso del recurso. Se logró identificar que la disponibilidad de agua ha contribuido al establecimi…
El turismo en el espacio rural en la mitad sur de Río Grande do Sul, Brasil (1997-2005)
Con el objetivo de analizar la evolución de las propiedades rurales, así como diferenciar las que practican agroturismo de las que ofrecen turismo rural, se investigaron nueve propiedades rurales en la mitad sur del estado de Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. El estudio se llevó a cabo en dos fases: una cualitativa con carácter exploratorio y otra cuantitativa con carácter descriptivo que consistió en la aplicación de encuestas en tres momentos diferent…
