- ItemSheep production systems in Chilean Patagonia. Characterization and typology(ELSEVIER, 2021) Toro Mujica, Paula; Riveros, Jose LuisSheep production is a common activity in family farms that develop mixed farming in developing countries in South America. In the area known as the Patagonia, it is possible to find this type of farm in isolated areas with a temperate climate, where sheep production takes place in small and medium-sized flocks managed with family labor. In these systems, obtaining animal protein for family consumption and the sale of surpluses is the main objective of farmers. The Chilean Patagonia is an area that stands out for its tourist attractions. This feature has been used at the government level to develop production and commercial linkage and improvement programs. However, the proper application of these programs needs to characterize sheep production systems, define groups, determine similarities and differences among them, and identify individual or joint adaptation strategies. Thus, the objective of this research was to characterize sheep farming in an extreme mountain area in the Chilean Patagonia and provide a typology of sheep production systems, focusing on the socio-productive aspects of family farms. Within the province of Palena, the study area corresponded to the communities of Palena and Futaleufu, where a survey was given to a sample of 172 sheep farmers. Through multivariate analysis methodologies, four groups of sheep production systems were identified. The main differences between systems were farm surface, surface destined for sheep, type, duration, and supplementation strategy and presence of purebred sheep. Sheep production in extreme areas contributes to rural families' livelihood by being part of an integrated system of activities that naturally uses circular economy strategies and sustainable practices. Geographical isolation limits the marketing channels, generating that the surpluses produced are sold locally. Given the government strategies to support the study area and the strong tourist component of governmental assistance, the sheep farmers need to modify their management strategies.

- ItemTECHNICAL EFFICIENCY AND VIABILITY OF GRAZING DAIRY CATTLE SYSTEMS IN LA PAMPA, ARGENTINE(COLEGIO DE POSTGRADUADOS, 2013) Angon, Elena; Garcia, Anton; Perea, Jose; Acero, Raquel; Toro Mujica, Paula; Pacheco, Hernan; Gonzalez, AnaGrazing dairy systems in La Pampa are going through a difficult situation due to low profitability and the competitive and sustitutive relationship between agriculture and livestock production over use of the land. Agriculture (primarily soy and maize) is listed at international prices, but dairy production competes in the inner Argentinian market. In this complex situation it is necessary to understand the efficiency and viability of these systems in the province of La Pampa (Argentina). Random stratified sampling was carried out per department with proportional allotment and 47 producers were interviewed, representing 27 % of the producers in the Pampa basin. Milk production (MP, L year(-1)) was modelled with regards to the size of the herd in number of milking cows (MC) and concentrate intake (CONI, kg MC-1 d(-1)). Through parametric techniques, an average technical efficiency of 35 % was estimated and three levels of efficiency were established through the interval OF ((x) over bar - 1 / 2S,(x) over bar +1 / 2S). Later, through single-factor variance techniques of fixed effects the variables that explain differences based on the level of efficiency were determined: size, productivity, percentage of permanent grasslands, use of supplements, labor productivity and degree of diversification of farms. The viability study revealed that 59.6 % of farms are not economically viable. The main factors to increase viability are: improving feeding guidelines and use of concentrate; optimization of input allotment and size of farms.
