GARCIA, Mabel  e  LOMBARDO, Patricia. Biased Contracting in Machinery Services in Agricultural Production in the Argentinean Pampas. Cuad. Desarro. Rural [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.71, pp.125-144. ISSN 0122-1450.

Biased contracting in machinery services have had an important historical role in the process of expansion and intensification of agricultural activity in the Pampas region. The purpose of the present paper is to analyse the evolution of biased contracting in machinery services during the period 1988-2002, as well as its main characteristics. With this scope special reprocessing of the National Agricultural Censuses (CA 1998 and 2002) were used in order to quantify some variables that allow us to further understand their evolution and characterisation. Results mainly show the heterogeneous nature of biased contracting both between provinces of the region and between deciles of agricultural area in the worked land
