This paper aims to verify the income differential between pluriactive, agricultural and non-agricultural families in rural Brazil. For this purpose, the microdata the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) of 2014 were used, through non parametric method of Ñopo (2008) was used. The results showed that pluriactive households earn approximately 64% the more than agricultural households and around 6% the less than non-agricultural households. Econometric estimates reinforced income disparities favorable of pluriactive households (0.1169 Lnw) in relation to agricultural households, and negative income differentials (-0.0647 Lnw) for pluriactivity, compared to non agricultural activity.

The current organization of the brazilian rural space has transformed because of to the new technologies that have been inserted into the field. In this new scenery the field became a multi-functional space and began to meet different demands and occupations. The general objective of this study is to present a discussion based on the concepts and definitions of pluriactivity in family farming, emphasizing its importance when being carried out by people living in rural areas, since this activity is reorganized in the field and contributes to the income of many families. The specific objectives are: to address the concepts and definitions of pluriactivity in family agriculture in the socio-spatial dynamics of the field; and understand the importance of family farming for the pluriactivity. The theoretical reflections are anchored in the propositions of authors such as: Sérgio Schneider, K. Kautsky e A. Chayanov. Articulated with these orientations on pluriactive activities data on these activities in family farming production were organized to check if there is correspondence between the concept and reality. As we have tried to make evident in the text, it is possible to state that, the pluriactivity is a phenomenon in which farming families traditionally occupied with agricultural activities will develop other activities considered non-agricultural as an income complementation strategy. In addition, many rural settlements can to presente various natural, cultural, and socioeconomic factors, that contribute to the realization of pluriactivity, as: the local tradition, customs and way of life of the rural man, the production categories, agricultural activities and the those not developed in rural areas.

El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo analizar los cambios en la configuración productiva y territorial de las áreas rurales que se localizan más allá de la periferia urbana, que difieren por completo del periurbano, pero que son parte de los intersticios rurales que conforman la estructura metropolitana. Todo ello, desde la mirada de la nueva ruralidad, que alude a los cambios en la funcionalidad de las sociedades rurales, como consecuencia del reciente proceso urbano. La estrategia metodológica se centró en un análisis deductivo de la información derivada de las entrevistas. El lugar de trabajo y las actividades productivas realizadas por los residentes de San Miguel Atepoxco, permitieron definir la conformación de la estructura productiva y los vínculos laborales entre el ámbito rural y su entorno rural urbano circundante. De acuerdo con el análisis, se observa, por un lado, una estructura ocupacional diversificada, con un claro predominio de las actividades no agrícolas, en su mayoría, terciarias y; por otro, una preeminencia del mercado de trabajo rural, puesto que gran parte de los empleos se reparte en localidades rurales (menos de 5,000 mil habitantes) a no más de los 10 kilómetros.

We sought to characterize the consumer profile at the Empório Lago Oeste in the Federal District, Brazil, a space destined for family production commercialization. It is exploratory quantitative and qualitative research. For the field study, interviews were carried out using a semi-structured questionnaire, with closed and open questions, in a sample of 20 consumers from an average universe of 534 daily visitors to the fair, delimited in non-participant observation. The study revealed the socioeconomic diversification and pluriactivity of consumer agents, among which 55% were women and 45% men, had a high level of education, had visited the Emporium weekly for at least three years, sought facilities such as ready-to-eat meals and snacks, used technology a lot, had high incomes and were willing to pay more for better products. The main motivations for the participants to buy at the Empório were the possible absence of pesticides, good service, good location, product quality, social relationships, and ecological awareness. Participants challenged the use of plastic packaging and suggested improving advertising. The quantitative and qualitative results complemented each other. All in all, it is stated that the objective of characterizing the consumer profile of the Empório Lago Oeste was achieved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

¿Cómo se gana la vida la gente de los interiores rurales de un país como la Argentina? Con esta pregunta, este artículo propone contribuir al conocimiento e intervención pública sobre un conjunto de problemas de economía política que signa la vida contemporánea de poblaciones rurales que pueblan y cultivan campo argentino. En base a una investigación etnográfica, empíricamente situada en el Valle de Traslasierra, noroeste de Córdoba, analizamos las dificultades sistémicas de legibilidad, social y gubernamental, de las que son objeto las economías pluriactivas que caracterizan al presente y pasado de este territorio –como de muchos otros interiores de la Argentina y la región latinoamericana. En la medida que esas dificultades comportan efectos –también sistémicos– de indiferencia, desposesión y violencia trivializada sobre estas poblaciones rurales, formulamos propuestas al ámbito público y gubernamental, orientadas a tornar legibles y visibles procesos de producción de valor implicados en las economías pluriactivas, y por intermedio de ello, a intervenir en geografías de desigualdad históricamente configuradas.

The productive and reproductive dynamics in rural areas have been diversifying as economic agents need to adapt to new social and demographic changes. Off-farm work plays a major role as an adaption strategy for the producers and residents in this context. Different motivations and contexts where work diversification is an option make new empirical and theoretical approaches arise to explain such phenomenon. In this sense, this work seeks to analyze in an applied and comparative perspective the main concepts found in literature, such as empirical evidence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

*Texto recibido antes de la modificación de criterios editoriales de la revista Las familias campesinas productoras de café se han enfrentado a una serie de problemáticas recurrentes. Ante esta situación, las familias implementaron estrategias que les permiten recuperarse y persistir buscando su bienestar. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la diversificación como un mecanismo que opera en el sistema socioambiental de café y que determina el establecimiento de estrategias familiares para lidiar con las amenazas. Para ello, se analizó la información de 100 entrevistas que se realizaron en 28 localidades en la región de la Sierra Madre del Sur de Chiapas. Se identificaron cinco estrategias principales de diversificación que pueden fortalecer la resiliencia del sistema socioambiental.

Los prestadores de servicios de maquinaria agrícola –contratistas– realizan las labores culturales para la agricultura extensiva de la región pampeana argentina. A través de una encuesta de alcance nacional a 426 contratistas complementada con entrevistas cualitativas, se ha caracterizado el tipo de estructura, los servicios ofrecidos, el nivel de capitalización y la dimensión familiar de sus empresas. Los resultados obtenidos muestran la pérdida del peso explicativo de la identidad de estos agentes del agro frente al creciente volumen y flexibilidad del capital, y el peso de la dimensión familiar para definir las dinámicas empresariales en la Región Pampeana Argentina.

En Argentina, la producción agropecuaria familiar tiene una importante relevancia, tanto por el número de explotaciones que existen, así como por la generación de empleo, arraigo y alimentos para consumo interno. En el Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires (AMBA) existe una gran cantidad de “tambos pequeños” -definidos como establecimientos cuya actividad principal es la producción lechera, tienen un rodeo de hasta 100 vacas totales (VT), la mano de obra es predominantemente familiar y pueden contar con alguna instalación para el ordeñe-. El siguiente estudio forma parte del trabajo realizado en el marco de un Proyecto Especial de ProHuerta (N° 989/2017), adjudicado a siete productores tamberos familiares de La Matanza, Marcos Paz y Virrey del Pino. El objetivo del proyecto era garantizar el acceso al agua segura para consumo humano y animal, pero también se utilizó como insumo para profundizar en el estudio de las lógicas productivas que llevan adelante tamberos familiares que producen en un territorio complejo como el AMBA. Se utilizó el método basado en casos, la información fue recolectada mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas e información secundaria. De la información recabada se observó que los tambos tienen entre 7 y 45 VT, la tenencia de la tierra es un factor conflictivo, sus recursos forrajeros se encuentran deteriorados y la inseguridad e incertidumbre condiciona la continuidad de la actividad. Se resalta la pluriactividad –entendida en términos de actividades dentro de la explotación, así como a la combinación de la producción agropecuaria con ingresos extraprediales- como una de las estrategias utilizadas para garantizar la sustentabilidad de estos sistemas productivos.

It is evident that, despite the existing diversity in European rural areas, there has been significant changes seen in them over the last two decades, both from a social and economic point of view. Although scientific literature still holds views generalising the most common problems affecting the rural areas, today it certainly must no longer be considered as a simple production surface. Rural areas are pluri-active and multifunctional spaces that provide values of high interest to society. Information and Communication Technologies contribute to the installation of new economic activities in these spaces, albeit both human capital and political initiatives are required to spread this reality throughout the European countryside, especially when it comes to the more peripheral areas at risk of abandonment.

A 35 años de su llegada a México, familias guatemaltecas de origen maya han creado un nicho económico de tipo comercial que conecta la producción agrícola con prácticas mercantiles en ciudades como Chetumal y Cancún. Mediante un trabajo etnográfico detallado, en este artículo se documenta la evolución en las últimas tres décadas de poblaciones de refugiados guatemaltecos a comunidades de comerciantes mexicanos que desarrollan una práctica económica innovadora. Tal transformación se produce en el contexto de pérdidas culturales, –por ejemplo en el terreno lingüístico– a falta de políticas públicas posteriores a la integración en México.

Antecedentes: una de las estrategias que se ha implementado en la lechería familiar para contrarrestar la crisis económica es la recría de bovinos. Objetivo: analizar social‚ económica y tecnológicamente la recría de becerros y becerras como estrategia de permanencia de las unidades de producción de lechería familiar en el municipio de Maravatío Michoacán. Métodos: se realizaron censos y encuestas a 120 productores durante los años 2020 a 2021; esta información se analizó de manera descriptiva con cifras absolutas y relativas de las variables para conocer la recría dentro de estas producciones. Resultados: la recría de bovinos en las producciones lecheras familiares se lleva a cabo por familias de 4,37 integrantes‚ cuyos jefes de familia tienen edad promedio de 54,55 años‚ de sexo masculino 87 % con escolaridad promedio de nivel primaria‚ cuya actividad principal es la pecuaria. Cada unidad posee en promedio 6,47 vacas‚ 3 becerros‚ 1 baquilla y 1 ternero. La producción promedio por vaca en línea es de 10,83 litros. Los animales se encuentran estabulados 64,18 % y son alimentados con forraje de corte 88,34 %. La recría inicia cuando el becerro es destetado y finaliza en hembras‚ cuando recibe su primera monta o servicio‚ y los machos‚ cuando realizan su primera monta o son vendidos para engorda. Este proceso consta de 4 etapas: 1) Nace hasta los dos días de vida; 30 - 38 kg; ingesta de calostro; corte y desinfección de ombligo; costo $2.500. 2) Segundo día hasta los cuatro meses de vida; 97 - 110 kg; separados de la madre y estabulados; alimentación con leche y concentrado; costo $4.000. 3) Cuatro hasta ocho meses de vida; 180 - 194 kg; alimentación con forraje; costo $10.000. 4) Ocho hasta 13 meses de vida; 300 - 340 kg; alimentación con forraje; los bovinos entran en pubertad; se vende o se reproduce; finaliza la recría; $20.000 - $40.000. Conclusiones: la actividad de recría genera animales para reemplazo y venta de excedentes‚ complementando la producción láctea al generar empleos directos e indirectos‚ mayores ingresos económicos y permitiendo la adopción y modificación de tecnologías.

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar las estrategias de reproducción social de una familia campesina, binacional, trasfronteriza y trasnacional, cuya trayectoria se ha desarrollado en la región México, Guatemala y Estados Unidos. En esta investigación longitudinal se utilizaron las técnicas de observación no participante y entrevistas a profundidad, para identificar la producción de autoconsumo, el jornalerismo agrícola nacional y trasfronterizo, la pluriactividad y la migración hacia Estados Unidos, como las estrategias principales de reproducción social. Según los resultados, las características de la familia analizada se presentan con regularidad y en generaciones distintas en la mayoría de las que habitan en el ejido Talquián, en Chiapas, por eso se tomó como estudio de caso. Este trabajo aporta un análisis cualitativo a partir de relatos de vida. Se concluye que en los estudios de frontera es fundamental tomar en cuenta una visión trasfronteriza, para explicar las dinámicas que ocurren en ambos lados de la línea geopolítica entre dos países.

La multiterritorialidad es la vivencia de varios territorios en simultáneo, implica una construcción histórica y social de los mismos, cuyo espacio resultante es un híbrido entre sociedad y naturaleza, materialidad e idealidad. A través de una metodología de carácter mixto (cualitativa y cuantitativa), el artículo da cuenta de cómo los migrantes de origen boliviano asentados en el rururbano norte de la ciudad de Santa Fe, Argentina, construyen territorialidades múltiples. En dicha construcción cuentan: los procesos que intervienen en el fenómeno de reterritorialización de esta población; las dimensiones del territorio que priman en los diferentes momentos de su construcción histórica; y las formas que se pueden reconocer hoy en dicho territorio. Allí, la pluriactividad y la neorruralidad emergen como nuevas categorías teóricas y como experiencias que explican las estrategias para afrontar los conflictos, abonando a la perspectiva de la hibridez y posibilitando una aproximación al descubrimiento de la morfología de ese territorio.

This article aims to characterize how families based on an official agrarian reform program have been developing their socioeconomic reproduction strategies from agricultural and non - agricultural activities. A specific case study was carried out at Lagoa do Capim settlement, located in São Luís do Curu, West Coast of Ceará. The methodological course was based on a qualitative approach and for data collection, visits were made to the settlement, with the purpose of interviewing the representatives of each family, and the results of the research were subjectively discussed. It was observed that, even with the problem of water scarcity in the area, the main activities developed by the farmers are the planting of corn, beans and some fruit trees in productive farms. The families are of rural origin, beneficiaries of social programs and with some incidence of retirees among its members. Many of their individuals, especially the younger ones, work off-farm in agricultural or non-agricultural activities to supplement family income. Among non-agricultural activities, those related to local commerce, outsourcing or services in other properties and to informality by the sale of the workforce in rural areas prevail.

La tarea de delimitar y definir el medio rural ha sido, y sigue siendo, una misión compleja en la que la mayor parte de los investigadores sociales admiten no existir una definición estricta y consensuada sobre el término. En el presente artículo se expone una revisión de la literatura científica acerca de las distintas conceptualizaciones del medio rural y sus posibles delimitaciones. Junto a ello se propone un índice de ruralidad para Galicia, una región del noroeste de España con un medio rural muy diverso fruto de las importantes transformaciones que han tenido lugar desde mediados del pasado siglo.

La provincia de Segovia está inmersa en un proceso de transformación de sus estructuras productivas que tiene que ver, como primera manifestación, con la actividad agraria y el desarrollo rural. La calidad de las producciones alimentarias constituye una de las apuestas más seguras con la que enfocar el futuro del predominante mundo rural segoviano. En él, la dinamización económica y el progreso de la diversificación de funciones tienen que ver, más que con cualquier otra consideración, con una creciente terciarización en base a los servicios de atención a la menguante población. Son las limitaciones y las oportunidades que se ciernen sobre el desarrollo rural provincial. Tendencias apuntadas y perspectivas de futuro que encuentran en el entramado agroindustrial y en los productos agrarios de calidad su principal vector.

This sociological study attempts to describe and analyze professional musicians' diverse activities and how they are a response to precarious employment and constitute a redefinition of their profession itself. Interviews with musicians in Guadalajara show that this profession generally demands mastering different competencies (playing different instruments or genres, among others) and doing different music-related jobs (sound engineer, music teacher, etc.), or combining the profession with other non-musical activities. To analyze this, the author uses the concepts of "multi-skilled activity," "plural activities," and "multi-activity." [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Accounting 35 years after arriving to Mexico, Guatemalan families with Mayan ethnic origins created a trade type economic niche, connecting agriculture production with market practices, in the Mexican cities of Chetumal and Cancun. With in-detail ethnographic research, this article provides evidence on this population's three-decade evolution from Guatemalan refugee into communities of Mexican tradesmen developing innovative economic practices. This given transformation may be observed in the context of cultural losses, showing lack of public policy under the Mexican integration aftermath; e.g., loss in the sphere of linguistics.

We examined the role of agriculture within the life strategies of pluriactive families on the Sustainable Development Project (PDS) Milton Santos Land Reform Settlement. PDS is a style of land reform project which attempt to enhance the ecological adequacy of farming practies, including restrictions to pesticide use. Starting in the 2000s, the Brazilian Government created settlements called Sustainable Development Projects (PDS). In the State of São Paulo, these PDS projects are located on metropolitan regions, in which nonfarm activities are typically available and propitiate pluriactive strategies. We raised the contextual elements of the settlement, pluriactive strategies, characteristics of pluriactive families and their agricultural practices, as well as family income indicators. We found out that agricultural activities play a multifunctional role, enabling settlers to carry out productive activities that generate income and contribute to sustainable development. Agricultural activities were particularly important for settlers with difficult insertion in the urban labor market due to illiteracy and/or deficient educational background. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The task of delimiting and defining rural areas has been, and continues to be, a complex one. Indeed, most social researchers admit to there being an absence of a strict, consensual definition of the term. In this article, a review of scientific literature looking at various conceptualisations of rural areas and their possible boundaries is discussed. Together with this, an Index of Rurality for Galicia is proposed, a region in north western Spain with highly diverse rural areas due to major transformations which have taken place since the middle of last century [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Rural tourism in Spain faces a number of problems that may hinder their sustainability in the medium and long term. Although in some areas impacts are identified due to the overcoming of the carrying capacity, the main conflicts in the medium and long term concern the socio-economic sphere of the phenomenon. The mismatch between public and private agents, the preponderance of an offer based on stereotypes of the "rural", standardized and barely distinguishable by the market, the widespread presence multiple-job holding among micro-entrepreneurs, without financial capacity and time constraints to qualify, innovate, invest in promotion and marketing and networking, are problems to be solved to ensure the sustainability of the sector favoring models of low environmental impact which, in turn, promote employment, incomes and basic services improving the quality of life and rural development.

Este trabajo estudió la relación que tiene la pluriactividad con el manejo y productividad del maíz, el empleo de tecnologías campesinas y de la sinergia agricultura-ganadería. Los resultados señalan que: 74% de los productores de maíz han diversificado sus actividades, 65% en actividades primarias y 35% en secundarias y terciarias. La pluriactividad está afectando la especialización del productor en el manejo adecuado del maíz y su productividad, porque se ha ampliado la discontinuidad técnica de los maiceros y se encontró que existe una ruptura en la transmisión de conocimientos empíricos y tecnologías campesinas, así como un deterioro de la sinergia agricultura-ganadería, aspectos esenciales para el manejo del maíz.

This paper presents the results of the perceptions of rural development between farmers who are part of the Nuclei of Rural Entrepreneurs in the Tequendama Province of the department of Cundinamarca (Colombia), as well as between public and private personnel who execute rural policies in this region. The results show that among respondents there is confusion between the concept of rural development and agrarian development, given their answers are oriented to privileging productivity, modernization, and technology aspects, above those who place the inhabitants of the rural sector as first. This confusion could be explained in that during the 1950s it was thought that rural development had to be oriented toward issues that claim the rural sector economic activity, regardless of its inhabitants and their cultural aspects, values and dignity. This aspect shows the need to reassess the meaning of the rural environment and its importance for the nation's development

Se analizan las múltiples estrategias de reproducción social de los productores de maíz del estado de Tlaxcala y el efecto que ha tenido la pluriactividad en el manejo del maíz y de otros recursos, así como en el desarrollo sustentable y humano. Con este fin se recurrió a información acopiada por una encuesta aplicada en el año de 2002 a una muestra de 1,884 maiceros. Los resultados indican que, aparte de producir maíz, 74% vende su fuerza de trabajo para sobrevivir, realizando distintas actividades; una sexta parte de productores o de sus familiares tienen que emigrar para contribuir al sustento familiar; las actividades pri- marias (siembra de maíz, ganadería y recolección de bienes), aunque aportan menor cantidad de recursos económicos, son estrategias de gran importancia por garantizar la reproducción social de la unidad campesina. Finalmente, no se encontró ninguna evidencia que demuestre que la política agropecuaria haya contribuido a mejorar la productividad, el bienestar social y la sustentabilidad de los recursos naturales de los productores de maíz del estado de Tlaxcala.

The insertion of pluriactivity in family agriculture indicates the presence of new territorialities, based on rural tourism activities that contribute to reproduction and permanence of man in the countryside. In this context, rural tourism is seen as a set of activities developed in rural areas, engaged in agropecuary production, adding value to products and services as well as promoting the recovery of cultural and natural heritage of the community involved. In this sense, the work aims to analyze the processes and dynamics placed in rural areas of Santa Maria - RS developed by family agriculture based on rural tourism as activity of socioeconomic reproduction of and in the field. Rural tourism in Santa Maria presents itself as an alternative of development for districts and some farms located near urban areas, highlighting the demand for restaurants that offer typical Italian food and the beauty of the existing natural landscapes in rural areas of the city.
