Even though are recognized own characteristics which differentiate it from the business production, they are presented according to the type of production and the territory where they are inserted, particularities that allow defining and analyzing them. In the case of family horticultural and flower production, which supplies with fresh products to big urban centers, the specificity of labor-intensive production system, the technologies utilized, the characteristics of the obtained products, their commercialization and their localization, differs substantially from others productive systems of the country.

Si bien se reconocen características propias que la diferencian de la producción empresarial, se presentan de acuerdo al tipo de producción y el territorio donde se inserta, particularidades que permiten definirlas y analizarlas. En el caso de la producción hortiflorícola familiar que abastece de productos frescos a los grandes centros urbanos, la especificidad del sistema productivo intensivo en trabajo, las tecnologías utilizadas, las características de los productos obtenidos, su comercialización y localización, difiere sustancialmente de otros sistemas productivos del país. De acuerdo a diagnósticos elaborados por INTA [2004] y otros trabajos cualitativos en el periurbano bonaerense, las dificultades que afrontan estas unidades familiares son de carácter múltiple. Entre las más importantes se mencionan la subordinación en la cadena comercial y acceso al financiamiento. Este trabajo busca dar cuenta de un proyecto de desarrollo territorial en la región periurbana del Gran La Plata, en el cual se aborda desde una perspectiva integral aspectos de financiamiento y comercialización a productores familiares. El mismo se focaliza en 30 productores familiares de La Plata y Berazategui pertenecientes al proyecto "Banco Social" implementado desde la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias y Forestales de la UNLP; avanzando en un análisis respecto al acceso al financiamiento y las estrategias comerciales llevadas por los productores familiares bajo estudio 2012-07-30 2022-03-16T17:59:27Z 2022-03-16T17:59:27Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v12n24a13 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/26574 spa https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v12n24a13/2151 https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v12n24a13/html application/pdf text/html Centro de Historia Argentina y Americana Mundo Agrario; Vol. 12 No. 24 (2012) Mundo Agrario; Vol. 12 Núm. 24 (2012) Mundo Agrario; Vol. 12 N.º 24 (2012) 1515-5994 |
