SOYA EN UN FLORERO: DIVISIÓN TERRITORIAL Y SEXUAL DEL TRABAJO AGRÍCOLA EN AMÉRICA LATINA (1986-2015).

The industrial agro-export model in Latin America not only determines the technological matrix, the specialization patterns, and the financialization of agriculture, as it also exacerbates the sexual division of labor, as part of the capital disposal strategy. Through a neo-Marxist theoretical framework (namely, food regimes, social reproduction, and the ecoterritorial turn), we compare the floriculture agrobusiness in Colombia and the soybean agribusiness in Brazil. These case studies reveal the processes of commodification within the corporate food regime and introduce important reflections on the dimensions of capital accumulation, food sovereignty, and gender.
