GONZALEZ, María del Carmen  y  ROMAN, Marcela. Extra-pampean agricultural expansion in Argentina. A Stakeholders view. Cuad. Desarro. Rural [online]. 2009, vol.6, n.62, pp.99-120. ISSN 0122-1450.

The terms "agriculturización" and "sojización" refer to some technical, economic and social processes that have originated from the annual expansion of grain production centered in soybean. This work aims to analyze the socioeconomic impact of this expansion in Argentina, comparing the results in different contexts. In one of these contexts, intensification was verified in the frame of capitalistic-style production (Pampean region) and in the other, the expansion was the result of an advance of the agricultural frontier (Non Pampean regions). Our reflections are orientated to show a more detailed image of the consequences of the expansion. The benefits that the increase in exports has generated for the country are undeniable, but the impact on local development is open to discussion. If any local benefit was generated, it was not for most of the people in non pampean territories. agriculture, expansion of soya, social.

Palabras clave : agriculture; soya expansion; social actors.
