El objetivo del trabajo es clasificar y tipificar una muestra de explotaciones rurales que pueda ser usada para la generación y transferencia de alternativas tecnológicas coherentes con las circunstancias de la agricultura de regadío en Santiago del Estero. La tipificación de los sistemas productivos permitió identificar formas de gestión rural bien diferenciadas entre sí, con necesidades y limitaciones diferentes, que facilitan la detección de debilidades y fortalezas, y establecer prioridades a la hora de diseñar políticas de desarrollo para esta zona.
The development of planted forests in Argentina was brought about by a range of State-maintained incentive programmes throughout the 1990s. These initiatives sought to relieve pressure on native forests and reduce dependence on imported wood by subsidising actually attained plantations of fast-growing species. In many regions of the country, the policy generated real and effective responses. There are today over a million hectares of forest under cultivation. The benefits of forest incentives went to waste in the province of Santiago del Estero, however, despite its having a large surface apt for forestry uses in both irrigable and dry areas. There appears to be insufficient information and, therefore, scant producer response to the incentives. Also in evidence is a need to update the value of the subsidy in the light of the realities faced by producers in the province. This paper pursues two aims: (a) to analyse the social and economic consequences of the forest incentive policy at the national level, and (b) to evaluate the response of producers in Santiago del Estero to those incentives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
