This study aimed to highlight the local variety of Quinoa from Varvarco. The research took into account the guardian families of quinoa seeds. The team identified and interviewed family farmers; the crop was observed in situ and the information was validated in workshops with the Varvarco community. The results showed that this quinoa is part of Varvarco's historical and cultural heritage, it contributed to food security in times of economic crisis because of different historical events that affect the economy and culture of the north of Neuquén. This quinoa has been in this area for at least 90 years. The cultivation cycle is from November to March, its phenotypic characteristics and management are similar to Central Chile varieties. The study improves the knowledge of quinoa behavior to adapt the calendars, forms of crop management, soil and plant protection in other agroecosystems.
