Descrição
Resumo:This article discusses the territorial implications generated by three productive activities in the Hermosillo, sonora coastal strip: charcoal production, harvesting of marine species, and shrimp farms. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews and the generation of a complex database. The results indicate a loss of mesquite ecosystems, an increased denuding of rangeland, wide variation in the catch of various species in coastal f isheries, complete loss of vegetation in some places, and a change in the hydrology in aquaculture zones. F inally, the article analyzes a set of synergies that positively articulate the three activities in some cases, but generate unhealthy competition in others.
