Functional responses and adaptation strategies of pastoral households to drought and volcanic ashfall in Northern Patagonia
Livestock is the main source of food and income, as well as a key socio-cultural asset for pastoralist households in arid and marginalized environments. Pastoral households in the drylands of Northern Patagonia in Argentina have faced repeated droughts over the past two decades and a large volcanic ashfall in 2011 that halved their livestock herds. While most households were severely affected by these events, some were able to withstand or recove…
Mapping Ecosystem Conservation Priority Based on Social Assessment, a Tool to Assist Land Use Planning
The lack of planning regarding the spatial location and extent of different anthropogenic activities (such as agricultural production, biodiversity conservation, tourism, and urbanization) results in unsustainable land use and occupancy. Unplanned land use change threatens the supply of ecosystem services (ES) and thus, human well‐being. Reversing this requires participatory land use planning that includes the stakeholders who inhabit the territo…
Socio-technical networks in rural contexts: Analysing shearing schedules and functioning in Patagonian sheep farming
Ley Caprina: Análisis de una política pública para el desarrollo en Neuquén
El mundo rural y las políticas agrarias fueron objeto de distintas transformaciones en las últimas décadas. En ese contexto surge la Ley Caprina, de actual cobertura en todo el territorio nacional argentino, pero con origen en la Patagonia. En este artículo estudiamos la Ley Caprina, ley n° 26.141, en la provincia de Neuquén desde un abordaje cuanti-cualitativo. Estudiamos el contexto de surgimiento en relación con diversos modelos de desarrollo …
Desarrollo y política pública en Argentina: El caso de Ley Ovina en Río Negro
Ley Ovina es una política pública destinada a productores del agro argentino. Surgió como demanda del sector ovinero empresarial de la región patagónica, sin embargo, actualmente cubre a todo el territorio nacional argentino y tiene como destinatarios también a productores pertenecientes a la agricultura familiar. Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar a la Ley Ovina en Río Negro, provincia en la que la ganadería ovina es una de las principal…
Rise from the ashes! Resilience patterns in Patagonia pastoralist communities
Pastoral household resilience is shaped by the interplay between human agency and community resilience mechanisms. As a major component of pastoral household livelihoods, livestock can serve as an indicator to characterize resilience of pastoralist communities. In 2011, Patagonia faced droughts and a volcanic ashfall that affected livestock, water and forage resources during an ongoing economic recovery process. In two localities, we reconstructe…
Agroecología periurbana en la Argentina del siglo XXI: De Los Márgenes a La Estatalidad
La agroecología surge en el seno de los movimientos sociales como una forma de producción frutihortícola, pero también como una denuncia del modelo hegemónico. Este ensayo propone realizar un breve recorrido por las diferentes formas de exclusión que ha sufrido la agroecología y por su incipiente reconocimiento estatal como una alternativa viable para la producción de alimentos, a través de una revisión bibliográfica y documental. Luego, se anali…
Biocultural heritage of transhumant territories
Socio-technical networks modulate on-farm technological innovations in wool production of North Patagonia, Argentina
Producción agropecuaria y desarrollo en Argentina: Un análisis desde la regionalización en el Censo Nacional Agropecuario 2008
En este trabajo exploramos los vínculos entre dos herramientas analíticas, las regiones y los censos, que son utilizadas para diseñar el abordaje político de un territorio en relación al desarrollo agropecuario. Para ello problematizamos las regionalizaciones y los censos como herramientas de la política pública, la historia censal argentina y el modo en que se han conformado asimetrías territoriales en la Argentina, para de allí avanzar en el de…
Convergence between satellite information and farmers’ perception of drought in rangelands of North-West Patagonia, Argentina
Strains in Sustainability Debates: Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Western Science through the Lens of Extension Agents in a Pastoral Region
Those involved in sustainability debates on developmental pathways concur in the synergistic potential of integrating traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and Western scientific approaches. Transhumant pastoralism is a livelihood strategy adapted to spatiotemporal environmental variability in many mountainous and arid regions worldwide. This form of livelihood is based on a mobile logic that is increasingly threatened by novel lifestyles promot…
From traditional knowledge to novel adaptations of transhumant pastoralists the in face of new challenges in North Patagonia
El proceso de urbanización en un territorio pastoril trashumante del Noroeste de Patagonia, Argentina (1920-2010)
Many mountainous, arid and semi-arid regions sustain rural communities with cultural and socio-productive characteristics, which are adapted to the biophysical conditions of such environments, such as transhumant pastoralism from North-West Patagonia. In these contexts, it has been proposed that the urbanization process can have implications in the sedentarization of the communities, in the ecological and agronomic fragmentation of landscapes and…
