ALVARO, María Belén. Impacts of the modernization in the farmer units of the Alto Valle, in Rio Negro province. Mundo agr. [online]. 2012, vol.12, n.24, pp.00-00. ISSN 1515-5994.

The methodological strategy is based on a structured design, with triangulation of cuanti and qualitative methods, working on a selective sample of family farmers, in Allen, Río Negro. The study reveals that facing the increasing requirements of quality and health for the commercialization, new ways of heterogeneización come out in the structural positions this type of social subjects occupy. Also, these positions appeared to be linked to the labor insertions of the family members, and connotations for his paths of social reproduction.
