Desarrollo de un proyecto agrícola en la región marginal de la Patagonia Meridional Argentina. El caso de Gobernador Gregores

Santa Cruz, an Argentinean province located in the south of the territory, presents an environment seriously affected by the fragility of the natural conditions, and a socioeconomic activity essentially based on livestock in rural areas, and on state service in urban ones. In the 1990s, a project, supported by State organisms, and financed by local banking corporations was carried out to contribute to the development of agricultural project, according to the limited agrarian conditions of the area. A small number of croppers who were eager to develop any activity that could diversify the typically rural model were forced to experience the first problems aroused by this project.
