A multi-criteria method was used, using indicators based on information supplied by field visits and interviews with key actors. For this purpose, ecological, economic and social characteristics were considered. The main critical points were found in the social sphere, due to limitations on the access to public services, poor training and associativity. Regarding the economic sphere, profitability was acceptable; however, the economic risk was at the sustainability threshold due to the lack of marketing channels, high dependence on external inputs and low production efficiency.

Se evaluó la sustentabilidad de un modelo extensivo de cría bovina en General Alvear, Mendoza. Se utilizó un método multicriterio, mediante la construcción de indicadores de sustentabilidad basados en la información suministrada por visitas a campo y entrevistas realizadas a informantes clave. Para tal fin, se consideraron características ecológicas, económicas y sociales. Los principales puntos críticos observados se encontraron en la dimensión social, debido principalmente a limitaciones en el acceso a servicios públicos, escasa capacitación y bajo nivel de asociatividad. Desde el punto de vista económico, si bien el nivel de ganancias resultó aceptable, el riesgo económico se ubicó en el valor umbral por las escasas vías de comercialización, la elevada dependencia de insumos externos y una baja eficiencia productiva. En cuanto a la dimensión ecológica, todos los indicadores se encontraron por encima del valor umbral. Sobre la base de los resultados obtenidos, se proponen alternativas de manejo que contribuyan a la mejora de las condiciones sociales, la estabilidad y conservación de los pastizales y los logros económicos a largo plazo. A su vez, los resultados confirman la necesidad de evaluar la sustentabilidad de los sistemas de cría mediante indicadores acordes con las condiciones locales.

description |
The sustainability of an extensive cow-calf model in General Alvear, Mendoza, was assessed. A multi-criteria method was used, using indicators based on information supplied by field visits and interviews with key actors. For this purpose, ecological, economic and social characteristics were considered. The main critical points were found in the social sphere, due to limitations on the access to public services, poor training and associativity. Regarding the economic sphere, profitability was acceptable; however, the economic risk was at the sustainability threshold due to the lack of marketing channels, high dependence on external inputs and low production efficiency. Concerning the ecological sphere, all indicators were above the sustainability threshold. Based on the research outcomes, management alternatives are proposed in order to contribute to the improvement of social conditions, range preservation and long-term economic results. In addition, the results confirm the need of assessing the sustainability of extensive cow-calf systems through appropriate indicators according to the local conditions. |
