Dinámicas identitarias y políticas públicas para la transición hacia la agroecología de los pequeños agricultores del Chaco argentino

Abstract

Criticism of industrial agriculture opened the debate on "alternative agriculture" for the transition to new sustainable systems. One of the responses to this discussion generated the idea of agroecology. In this paper, we analysed from an ethnographic approach the process of building an agroecological identity within a group of family farmers in the Bermejo Department (Chaco Province) and the role that the public policies play in this transformation.
