The traditional space of the Alto Valle of Rio Negro in the north Argentinean Patagonia,  was orientated from his beginnings to activities linked to the exportation of fresh fruit, likewise, it has been a point of confluence of traffic not only of capital and goods but also of labor. On the fruit-growing having consolidated between1940 and 1950, migrants from Chilean origin and from the provinces of Neuquén and Rio Negro came to the zone to work in the farms. Some of these new comers settled in small population near the agricultural areas, constituting territories with particular characteristics. In this work we will present some approximations to the social construction of workers' territories and to the spatial mobility of this workforce, related to the transformations in the production of pears and apples in the Alto Valle of Rio Negro. 

Keywords : Fruit; Territory; Migration; Rural Workers.
