Unidades productivas agropecuarias como referentes para la planificación y gestión del paisaje agrario municipal: caso Onzaga, Santander

Abstract

This document is related to the development of an investigation on agrarian landscapes as a possible element of diagnosis and formulation of actions for the modern rural territorial ordering of the Municipality of Onzaga, Santander. The validity of this academic effort is established in the deficiencies that the current legislation presents for the ordering of the elements and activities established in the rural context, demonstrating at the same time an ignorance of its complexity. Based on experiences and academic advances especially European, an analysis exercise is developed that uses the Agricultural Productive Units of the municipality as referents of the agrarian landscape expression in view of the fact that the complexity of its structure efficiently explains the conformation, structure and behavior of the landscape in which it is established. Methodologically, a diagnosis of these units is developed, discriminating each of its constituent dimensions and then arriving at a description of the visible relationships between them. The paper is organized as follows: first, the problem, the justification and the objectives to be met at work are described. In a second aside, the conceptual framework and state of the art that contextualize the research is presented. In a third section the methodology that was followed for the fulfillment of the objectives is described and finally, based on the exposed results, the main conclusions of the study are formulated.
