RESPONSES TO LAND GRABBING: REPRODUCTIVE STRATEGIES AND CONTEMPORARY FORMS OF ORGANIZATION OF FAMILY FARMERS IN THE LOCALITIES OF LAS PALMAS AND LA LEONESA (CHACO) AND COLONIA PIRAY KM 18 (MISIONES)

Abstract

In order to explore the strategies of social reproduction of subaltern actors in relation to the agribusiness model, we restored the experiences of family producers from two provinces of the northeastern Argentina, Chaco and Misiones, characterized by having an important number of agricultural small-scale holdings. The analysis shows the variety of responses to the processes of land grabbing in the localities of Las Palmas and La Leonesa (Chaco) and the Piray km 18 colony (Misiones). The articulation of productive strategies and organizational formshas allowed the subsistence of family producers. We argue that the organizational forms generated in specific conjunctures has been intertwined with the domestic and daily strategies of social reproduction.
