MARTOCCI, Federico. To cultivate the farmer in the dry Pampas: Generation and spread of agricultural knowledge in the first decades of the twentieth century. Mundo agrar. [online]. 2014, vol.15, n.29. ISSN 1515-5994.
The aim of this work is to analyze the complex process of production and spread of knowledge among farmers in the east of the National Territory of the Pampas during the period of 1910 and 1940. Thanks to some institutions and experts, some from the state and some private, it was possible to create a corpus of agricultural knowledge to be used by farmers in their daily life activities. The institutions were dedicated to observe the agro ecological conditions of the region, they experimented with different varieties of cereals, they studied the applicability of agronomical techniques and they informed local farmers about the results of their investigations. Taking into account this aim, we are going to consider the experimental centers and the regional agronomies of the National Agricultural Ministry. At the same time, we are going to take into account the agronomic engineers of the train service as well as farmers. The latter, far away from being passive recipients, in some cases they were active researchers and they socialized knowledge among agricultural magazines of national spreading.
