Ganadería ovina y usos alternativos del suelo en la Patagonia austral, Argentina

Abstract

El sector ganadero ovino está atravesando una profunda crisis en la Patagonia argentina, acrecentada por el sobrepastoreo en los establecimientos de la región. Se realizaron entrevistas a los ganaderos para explorar su conocimiento y sus actitudes hacia la incorporación de actividades complementarias, potencialmente más sustentables que la ganadería. El uso turístico de sus establecimientos y de la fauna silvestre con fines productivos fueron las preferidas por los encuestados. Sin embargo, solo la mitad de ellos estarían dispuestos a reducir la carga ganadera si se vieran recompensados por ingresos provenientes de esas o de otras actividades complementarias. Estos resultados sugieren considerar con cautela los beneficios potenciales de explotar poblaciones de especies silvestres, o los de otras actividades complementarias, para la conservación de los ecosistemas esteparios patagónicos.

The sheep livestock sector is going through an important crisis in Argentine Patagonia, which has been magnified by reduced pasture productivity caused by a lasting history of overgrazing. Farmers were interviewed in order to assess their knowledge and attitudes towards adopting additional, potentially more sustainable activities complementary to livestock farming that would help to mitigate income losses and land abandonment. Tourism and consumptive uses of wildlife were the preferred options by the respondents. However, only half of farmers would be willing to reduce sheep stocking density even if economic reward from complementary uses of wildlife exceed losses due to overgrazing. This casts some doubts on the potential conservation benefits for Patagonian shrub-steppe ecosystems of exploiting populations of wild species or other complementary activities.
