| Sumario: | The province of Buenos Aires (Argentina) has been one of the regions where the widespread of agribusiness logic has been more severe. However, it is possible to find cases that try to persist and recreate ways of alternative agriculture. Based on a previous compilation, this paper aim to analyze deeply two cases located in different districts of the province. To address the objective we will describe each area considering its production, agrarian structure and normative (mainly those which refers to fumigation control or the support for alternative cropping systems). Then we analyze specifically two cases of alternative production -one carried out by an agrarian organization, and the other by a small group of people- considering their agronomic practices, location, internal organization, social and commercial networks, among others. Finally we will present some considerations about the condition of emergence and persistence of these projects of alternative agriculture and their possibilities of expansion. |
