Abstract

La organizacion de productores familiares en las ferias francas de la provincia de Córdoba. FAVE. Secc. Cienc. agrar. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.2, pp.25-32. ISSN 1666-7719.

The purpose of the present article is to understand the organizational processes of 12 tax free fairs trades in the province of Cordoba. To this end, key stakeholders were interviewed during the years 2014 and 2015. Tax free fairs trades are initially valued as an appropriate solution for both conscious consumers and family farmers seeking a more sustainable marketing alternative. Nevertheless the analysis reveals that they are a social arena stressed by relations of collaboration / competition between diverse actors that interact in the territory. The results make it possible to identify two trends in dispute in the majority of the participants: i) the assembly, who holds an individualistic position and trusts in the regulation of the process that can be made by consumers; ii) the formalizer, which facilitates the organization in internal commissions that agree norms for the behavior of the members.
