Abstract:
Argentina's history has been profoundly influenced by the development of its agriculture. It was through the exportation of beef and grain that the country experienced spectacular economic growth between 1880 and 1930. Historically, agricultural and agro-industrial production have made up between 70 and 80% of export earnings.1 As a consequence, the sector's dominant interest group during that period, the Argentine Rural Society (Sociedad Rural Argentina – SRA) acquired enormous economic power, which led to political clout as many of its members went on to become presidents of the republic and to staff the most important ministries. Because of the political influence so attained the SRA was soon referred to as one of the key factores de poder, or power holders, along with the military, the Church and, later on, labour. This hegemony came to an end in the mid-1940s when industrialisation replaced agriculture as the main contributor to the nation's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and when Peronism removed the landowning elite from control of the levers of power. The agricultural sector continued to take a backseat among the priorities of most of the administrations following Perón's downfall in 1955, because the future of Argentina was perceived to rest upon the promotion of import substitution industrialisation. Agricultural interest groups were never again able to gain the same kind of access to economic policy-making as they had once enjoyed. To make matters worse, the whole rural sector was forced to finance the state-led industrialisation process through a variety of direct and indirect government taxes.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to identify determinants of the reductions in the use of labor observed in Argentine agriculture. The paper focuses on the 2002-2018 period, using data from the last two publications of the Censo Nacional Agropecuario (the census undertaken in 2008 is incomplete). The paper summarizes trends of labor use and firm size in Argentina, and presents three possible hypothesis accounting for the observed changes: (a) capital-labor substitution, (b) labor-saving technical change (reduced and no-tillage), and (c) changes in the farm size and the types of capital (machines) used.

Abstract:
El artículo pone en tensión la disputa en el agro contemporáneo de dos modelos antagónicos de producción, como también de tradición y relación con la naturaleza: el agronegocio y la agroecología. Destacamos los casos argentino y brasileño de producción agrícola de la soya en las recientes décadas, intensificada por el “boom de la soya”, es decir, el agronegocio sojero. Entendemos esa producción como un caso paradigmático, por evidenciar la profundidad del agronegocio y de sus consecuencias sociales, económicas y ambientales. En oposición a ello, acentuamos a la agroecología como un paradigma sustentable ambientalmente, y social y económicamente armónico. Así, va más allá de un modelo de producción agrícola, en la construcción de buenas condiciones de reproducción de la vida en el agro y en la ciudad. El artículo se divide en tres apartados. En el primero abordamos los fundamentos de formación del padrón de producción agrícola que conlleva al agronegocio. En el segundo nos centramos en el fomento del agronegocio sojero en Argentina y Brasil. En el tercero analizamos la agroecología como un proceso disruptivo que está en constante tensión con aquel modelo de producción agrícola. Abstract This article puts in tension the dispute between two antagonistic models of agricultural production in the contemporary agriculture, as well as tradition and relationship with nature: agribusiness and agroecology. We highlight the Argentine and Brazilian cases of soybean production in recent decades, intensified by the “soy boom”, that is, soybean agribusiness. We understand this production as a paradigmatic case, for evidencing the depth of agribusiness and its social, economic and environmental consequences. In opposition to this, we emphasize agroecology as environmentally sustainable, socially and economically harmonious paradigm. Thus, it goes beyond a model of agricultural production, in the construction of good conditions for the reproduction of life in agriculture and in the city. The article is divided into three sections. In the first, we address the fundamentals of forming the pattern of agricultural production that leads to agribusiness. In the second we focus on the promotion of the agribusiness in Argentina and Brazil. In the third, we analyze agroecology as a disruptive process that is in constant tension with that model of agricultural production.

Abstract:
Import substitution policy replaced the model of export-oriented agricultural economy that existed in Argentina during the period of 1870–1929. Its mechanism was relatively simple: agricultural products, for which the country had optimal natural conditions, were exported to the external markets, while wide range of industrial products, machinery and equipment were imported. Exports generated substantial revenues (providing a lion's share of state income), and the imports quite satisfied domestic demand for capital and consumer goods. The history of import substitution policy in Argentina can be divided into two stages. At the first stage (1930–1952), the government created its basic tools with a stress on development of labor-intensive light industries whose products were intended to meet domestic consumer demand. During the second phase (1953–1976), Argentine political establishment, not satisfied with the results achieved in the previous period, initiated the policy of “super industrialization”, namely, the creation or expansion of basic capital-intensive industries: metallurgy, machinery, chemicals and petrochemicals, energy. In these years domestic production of machinery and equipment for agriculture and light industry, durables, pharmaceuticals increased dramatically, the national military-industrial complex, scientific and technical sectors were created. In other words, Argentine’s policy of import substitution created a new frame of economic relations. It brought both positive and negative results which fully showed up in mid 70s. Since then, the crisis of import substitution policy became especially evident amidst the world process of globalization and dynamic formation of worldwide value-added chains. Argentina found itself largely isolated from these trends and came into clinch with the changing external conditions. So, under the rumbling populist and nationalist rhetoric it proceeded into the prolonged recession.

Abstract:
In Argentina, farming traditionally took place in small and medium-sized family farms, mostly by means of their own land, labour, capital (financial, machinery, etc.) and entrepreneurship. Farmers owned enough equipment to cope with all the activities required for the production cycle. This traditional family farm model is the dominant organisational form in agriculture in almost every country. However, the way of managing, contracting and organising agriculture in Argentina has changed since the 1990s as a result of several institutional innovations. Even though the 2002 economic crisis created a highly uncertain scenario, farm production continued to expand and new organisational forms appeared. Since 2007, institutional changes (more related to Government intervention) had a negative impact on production and organisational forms. These different periods and scenarios enable us to explore the dynamics and interrelationships of the different institutional, organisational and technological environments. The paper discusses organisational adaptation in the agriculture sector as a response to radical changes in the technological and institutional environments, in a context of increased international demand for agricultural commodities.

Abstract:
This article investigates structural change in Argentina between 1935 and 1960, a period of rapid industrialization and of relative decline of the agricultural sector. We use a dynamic three-sector computable general equilibrium model of the period to analyze the effects of the policies of import-substituting industrialization (ISI), and changing factor endowments, on the structure of the economy. We find that the declining land-labor ratio was more important than ISI in explaining relative stagnation in agriculture. ISI gave a substantial boost to manufacturing, but primarily at the expense of non-traded services, rather than of agriculture.

Abstract:
This study is a first exploratory approach to identify differences and similarities between U.S. and Argentine farmers’ main management strategies. Considering the importance of agriculture in these countries and the key roles both of them play in agriculture world markets, our findings could help agribusiness industries and policymakers to make well-informed decisions based on a more comprehensive understanding of farmers’ behavior in both countries. Regarding sociodemographic aspects, U.S. farming is more family-operated, farmers are older, and farms are, on average, a smaller scale than in Argentina. The results show that U.S. farmers work more on their own farm compared to Argentine farmers. Regarding the factors considered more important in farm management, Argentine and U.S. farmers are more concerned about costs and productive aspects than about marketing issues or human resources aspects. This study also indicates that farmers in both countries prefer to do most of the farm tasks by themselves.

Abstract:
Argentina is among the largest producers of transgenics and its export occupies a strategic place in the GDP. In 2020, Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) and tech-companies lobbied the government to adopt Agro-Technology ecosystem as a strategic plan to intensify and add technologies that present uncertain risk. This work analyzes the hegemony of techno-optimistic discourses that support the adoption of AgTech. Through the analysis of meanings and chaining between key concepts, it was determined that discourses attempt to make power relations invisible by presenting technology as ideologically neutral; and the best solution to increase production while it allows to reach social, economic and environmental sustainability goals. Despite being presented as inclusive, collaborative, scientifically objective and efficient; the analysis conducted determined that the AgTech ecosystem is dominated by corporations and venture capitals. The training programs for AgTech companies impose an image of market-oriented entrepreneurs. In addition, corporations extract and accumulate in the global north flexible values, such as patents, data. Thus, this should be understood as a dependency, compatible with colonial structures, from Argentina towards the corporations that manage to control the agro-industrial system.

Full text
Abstract:
Subtropical deforestation in Latin America is thought to be driven by demand for agricultural land, particularly to grow soybeans. However, existing remote sensing methods that can differentiate crop types to verify this hypothesis require high spatial or spectral resolution data, or extensive ground truth information to develop training sites, none of which are freely available for much of the world. I developed a new method of crop classification based on the phenological signatures of crops extracted from multi-temporal MODIS vegetation indices. I tested and refined this method using the USDA Cropland Data Layer from Kansas, USA as a reference. I then applied the method to classify crop types for a study site in Pellegrini, Santiago Del Estero, Argentina. The results show that this method is unable to effectively separate summer crops in Pellegrini, but can differentiate summer crops and non-summer crops. Unmet assumptions about agricultural practices are primarily responsible for the ineffective summer crop classification, underlining the need for researchers to have a complete understanding of ground conditions when designing a remote sensing analysis.

Abstract:
En Argentine au début des années 2000, le monde de la recherche agronomique publique s’est attelé au développement d’un machinisme approprié pour l’agriculture familiale. L’agriculture familiale, devenue une catégorie d’action publique et scientifique à cette même époque, renvoie aux agriculteurs travaillant leurs terres sans employer de main d’œuvre salariée. Ce modèle se différencie de celui de l’agronégoce, centré sur la production de matières premières destinées à l’exportation, qui a connu depuis les années 1990 un essor considérable en Argentine.La thèse revient d’abord sur l’installation des activités de développement de machinisme pour l’agriculture familiale au sein de la recherche agronomique argentine, autour de la création de nouveaux instituts spécialement dédiées à la recherche et au développement technologique pour l’agriculture familiale (Ipaf). Ces institutions ont notamment la particularité de se fonder sur la référence au concept de « technologies appropriées ». Né en Europe dans les années 1960, ce concept est ancré dans une forte critique des technologies conventionnelles, tout en proposant de développement de technologies simples, locales, de petites échelles, et décentralisées. Après avoir observé la trajectoire de circulation, faite d’hybridations, du concept de technologies appropriées dans l’espace latino-américain, nous présentons la manière dont il a été mobilisé par la recherche agronomique publique argentine, dans le contexte spécifique des années 2000. Ce contexte, politiquement marqué par le Kirchnérisme, a vu l’instauration d’un mandat visant à mettre les sciences et les technologies au service de l’inclusion sociale.La thèse s’intéresse ensuite en détail au travail mené par les ingénieurs chargés de développer des machines appropriées à l’agriculture familiale. Nous revenons sur deux cas concrets, que sont la conception et la fabrication de machines de post-récolte de quinoa, et le développement d’un prototype de vendangeuse semi-mécanisée. Nous présentons la manière dont les ingénieurs interviennent sur différents fronts. Ils ont ainsi conçu des modèles, trouvé des fonds pour les prototyper, participé à la fabrication, mais également cherché des financements publics pour permettre aux petits producteurs de faire l’acquisition des machines. Nous analysons ce mode d’intervention spécifique, tourné vers l’accomplissement d’une mission, qui est d’assurer que les innovations parviennent jusqu’aux petits producteurs.Enfin, nous présentons la manière dont les agents de la recherche agronomique publique ont, au cœur de ce projet porté par l’État, interagi avec le secteur privé, et tenté de construire un secteur de fabricants de machines pour l’agriculture familiale. Cette dernière thématique est d’autant plus complexe dans le contexte des technologies pour l’agriculture familiale, où il s’agit d’envisager le développement de marchés pour des acteurs pauvres, ou du moins ayant un faible, voire très faible, pouvoir d’acquisition.Cette thèse propose une analyse détaillée du rôle de la recherche agronomique publique dans le soutien à l’agriculture familiale, et des relations mouvantes en sciences, techniques et politiques dans un pays périphérique comme l’Argentine
In Argentina in the early 2000s, the world of public agricultural research focused on the development of appropriate machinery for family farming. Family farming, which became a category of public and scientific action at the same time, refers to farmers working their land without employing paid labor. This model differs from the agri-business model, which focuses on the production of raw materials for exportation, which has grown considerably in Argentina since the 1990s.The thesis first focuses on the establishment of such machinery and its subsequent development in relation to family farming within Argentinean agricultural research, around the creation of new institutes specially dedicated to research and technological development for family farming (Ipaf). These institutions are particularly unique in that they are based on the reference of the concept of "appropriate technologies". Born in Europe in the 1960s, this concept is grounded on a strong criticism of conventional technologies, while at the same time proposing the development of simple, local, small-scale and decentralized technologies. After having observed the trajectory of circulation, made of hybridizations, of the concept of appropriate technologies in Latin America, we will present how it has been mobilized by Argentinean public agronomic research in the specific context of the 2000s. This context, politically marked by Kirchnerism, has seen the establishment of a mandate to put science and technology at the service of social inclusion.The thesis then focuses in detail on the work carried out by the engineers responsible for developing machines suitable for family farming. We return to two specific cases, namely the design and manufacture of quinoa post-harvest machines and the development of a semi-mechanized harvester prototype. We present how engineers are working on different fronts. They designed models, found funds to prototype them, participated in manufacturing, but also sought public funding to enable small producers to acquire the machines. We analyse this specific method of intervention, which is oriented towards the achievement of a mission, which is to ensure that innovations reach small producers.Finally, we present the way in which public agricultural research agents have, at the heart of this state-led project, interacted with the private sector and attempted to build a sector of machine manufacturers for family farming. This last theme is all the more complex in the context of technologies for family farming, where it is a question of considering the development of markets for impoverished individuals, or at least those with low or very low purchasing power.This thesis provides a detailed analysis of the role of public agricultural research in supporting family agriculture, and the changing relationships in science, technology and politics in a peripheral country like Argentina

O objeto deste trabalho são as negociações do Acordo de Associação Inter-regional Mercado Comum do Sul (Mercosul) - União Europeia (UE), tendo como escopo de análise o período entre 1995 e 2016. O foco da análise está no posicionamento dos governos de Argentina e Brasil, assumindo que os dois países são o eixo fundamental para o avanço da integração do Mercosul. Ao longo dos anos de negociações é perceptível a mudança de ímpetos para a negociação dos dois países, com momentos de maior e menor convergência entre seus posicionamentos em relação à proposta europeia. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar os interesses defendidos pelos governos argentinos e brasileiros, a partir da compreensão do papel dos grupos de interesses domésticos agrícolas e industriais e sua influência nas negociações, sob ponto de vista político. Demonstra-se que os interesses de negociação de Argentina e Brasil se modificaram ao longo das tratativas tal como dos grupos domésticos estudados. Advoga-se que os posicionamentos dos países refletiriam as preferências nacionais, formadas a partir de pressões de grupos agrícolas e industriais de cada país.

The focus of the analysis is the position of the governments of Argentina and Brazil, assuming that both countries are fundamentals axis for the progress of Mercosur integration. Throughout the years of negotiations the change of impetus for the negotiation of the two countries is perceptible, with moments of greater and lesser convergence between their positions in relation to the European proposal. The objective of this paper is to analyze the interests defended by the Argentine and Brazilian governments, from the understanding of the role of the agricultural and industrial groups and their influence in the negotiations, from a political point of view. It is shown that the negotiating interests of Argentina and Brazil have changed during the negotiations as well as the domestic groups studied. It is argued that the positions of the countries would reflect the national preferences, formed from the pressures of agricultural and industrial groups in each country.

Abstract:
Les organisations interprofessionnelles (OIP), complètement nouvelles dans le cadre institutionnel agricole argentin, sont nées au sein d’un processus plus large de transformation du secteur où la technologie va tenir une place de plus en plus centrale. La vocation innovatrice manifestée par les OIP a suscité le besoin de comprendre leur rôle dans les processus d’innovation des filières.Cette thèse a fait apparaître, à partir de l’étude de trois cas (l’OIP de la filière du soja, l’OIP de la filière du tournesol et l’OIP de la filière du riz) que les OIP ont des rôles différenciés dans les processus d’innovation des filières. Nous avons pu montrer que les différences dans ces rôles sont liées à la fois aux formes d’insertion des filières argentines dans des chaines de valeur globales et aussi au type d’acteurs qui dominent les systèmes d’innovation de chaque filière. Le cadre théorique mobilisé combine des approches institutionnalistes des mécanismes de coordination des acteurs avec des approches de la géographie critique qui permettent de rendre compte des processus qui conditionnent le développement des filières agroalimentaires concernées. L’analyse empirique, basée sur la triangulation de sources d’information et de techniques d’analyse de données différentes, nous a permis de mettre en relation les différentes dimensions de la problématique et d’interpréter les rôles des OIP dans les processus d’innovation
Interprofessional organizations (OIP), new actors in the Argentine’s agricultural institutional framework, were born in the context of a broader transformation of the sector where technology takes an increasingly central place. The innovative spirit manifested by the OIP raises questions about its role in the innovation process of the value chain. This thesis shows, from the study of three cases (the soybean chain OIP, the sunflower chain OIP and the rice chain OIP) that the OIP have differentiated roles in the innovation process. We have shown that differences in these roles are related to the forms of insertion of Argentine industries in global value chains and also the type of players that dominate the innovation systems of each chain. The framework combines institutionalist approaches to the coordination mechanisms of the actors in the innovation processes with a focus on critical geography, which can account for the processes that affect the development of agricultural chains
Las organizaciones interprofesionales (OIP), actores completamente nuevos en el mapa institucional agrícola argentina, nacieron en el marco de un proceso más amplio de transformación del sector donde la tecnología ocupa un lugar cada vez más central. La vocación innovadora manifestada por las OIP lleva a interrogarse sobre su papel en el proceso de innovación de la cadena de valor. Esta tesis muestra, a partir del estudio de tres casos (OIP de la cadena de la soja, la cadena OIP girasol y las OIA del sector arrocero) que la OIP tienen roles diferenciados en el proceso de innovación y que las diferencias están vinculadas a las formas de inserción de las en las cadenas globales de valor y también el tipo de jugadores que dominan los sistemas de innovación de cada cadena. El marco teórico combina los enfoques institucionalistas de los mecanismos de coordinación de los actores en los procesos de innovación con el enfoque de la geografía crítica, que puede dar cuenta de los procesos que afectan al desarrollo de las cadenas agroalimentarios.El análisis empírico, basado en la triangulación de las fuentes de información y diferentes técnicas de análisis de datos, nos ha permitido relacionar las diferentes dimensiones del problema e interpretar los roles de las OIP en proceso la innovación

Dans ce but, il a ete releve la structuration des reseaux de dialogue technique qui sont les supports des differents systemes de pensee locaux, systemes de pensee qui correspondent a des modalites specifiques de production agricole. Simultanement, nous avons realise une typologie basee sur les capitaux dont disposent les agriculteurs et une autre sur les systemes fourragers. C'est ainsi que notre methode de travail a combine l'analyse de reseaux avec une analyse typologique des exploitations qui nous a permis d'interpreter le fonctionnement de ces reseaux. Dans ce contexte, cette recherche permet de voir les limites du role des techniciens dans ce systeme de connaissance local leur role est biaise car il n'ont de contact qu'avec un sous-reseau d'agriculteurs. Cette recherche nous permet de nous interroger sur les possibilites d'une strategie differente d'intervention de la part de l'inta
The purpose of our research has been to give indications for improving articulation between the knowledge of agricultural technical institutions (like inta) and the family-farmers knowledges. This work is based on the analysis of a local knowledge system. It has been analysed the structuration of technical dialogue networks that are the support of different local thought systems. Thos thought systems correspond to various specific modalidies of agricultural production. Simultaneously, we realised a typology based on farmers capitals and another on forrage systems. Our method combined network analysis with typological analysis of farms and this allowed us to understand the functionning of those networks. In this context, this research allows to identify the limits of technicians rol in this local knowledge system. Their rol is inefficient because they only have contacts with a sub-unit of the network. This work allows us to set up a debate on a new intervention strategy for inta

Este trabalho pretende analisar, a partir da comparação de dados, as mudanças na dinâmica produtiva do espaço rural da província de Santa Fé, a partir das políticas econômicas aplicadas na década de 1990. As modificações serão entendidas sob o histórico processo de construção ou de "formação sócio-espacial" da província e da região pampeana. Esta pesquisa demonstrará os avanços das relações capitalistas de produção sobre o cada vez menos diversificado e mais modernizado espaço rural santafesino. Relacionado a isto analisará a crescente interligação e subordinação da agricultura á indústria e ao mercado. A presente dissertação também procurará considerar o papel dos mercados e das políticas externas como forças que modificam o local. Por fim, serão apresentadas algumas das alterações e continuidades no papel do Estado no referente à política econômica a partir do governo Kirchner, em 2003.

Abstract:
AbstractBioeconomy is a concept that has been developed in the OECD and is prominently discussed in Europe and industrialized countries. Over the years, Argentina has begun appropriating and developing its own interpretation of the concept, which has a clear agro-industrial and bio-technological focus. In Argentina, bioeconomy is framed as further intensification of agro-industrial production—including GMOs and the immense use of pesticides—combined with strengthening industrial upgrading. The same people and institutions that have supported soybean expansion over the last decades also advocate bioeconomy. Nevertheless, Argentina’s agricultural policies have been contested for several years; this particularly applies to the expansion of soybean monocultures and the related use of pesticides. Referring to the debate on agrarian extractivism, this chapter argues that Argentina’s focus within the bioeconomy debate risks deepening the extractivist tendency within the dominant form of agriculture and continuing the exclusion of peasants, indigenous groups and environmental concerns.

Abstract:
The new coronavirus disease (Covid-19) evolved quickly from a regional health outbreak to a global collapse, stopping the global economy in a unprecedented way, creating uncertainty and chaos in the financial markets. Based on these events, it is intended in this paper to test the persistence of profitability in the financial markets of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru and Mexico, in the period between January 2018 to July 2020. In order to perform this analysis where undertaken different approaches in order to analyze if: (i) the financial markets of Latin America are efficient in their weak-form during the global pandemic (Covid-19)? ii) If so, the persistent long memories cause risks between these regional markets? The results suggest that the returns don’t follow the i.i.d. hypothesis, from dimension 2, reinforcing the idea that returns of stock indexes have a non-linear nature or a significant non-linear component, exception made to the Argentina market, which was expected in virtue of the Ljung-Box (with the return squares) test results, and ARCH-LM. Corroborating the exponents Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA), indicate the presence of persistent long memories, namely into the following markets: Colombia (0.72), Chile (0.66), Brazil (0.58) and Peru (0.57). The Argentina market does not reject the random walk hypothesis, while the Mexican market suggests some anti-persistence (0.41). This situation has implications for investors, once that some returns can be expected, creating arbitration opportunities and abnormal income, contrary to the supposed from the random walk hypothesis and information efficiency. The t-test results of the heteroscedasticity form the two samples suggest that there is no risk transmission between these regional markets, with the exception to the BOVESPA / BOLSAA MX markets, that is, the existence of persistent long memories in the returns does not imply the risk transmission between markets. These finds allow the creation of strategies of diversification inefficient portfolios. These conclusions also open space for the market regulators to implement measures that guarantee a better informational information of these regional markets.

Inter-American Development Bank, November 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0003794.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper, we assess the economy-wide impact of Climate Change (CC) on agriculture and food security in 20 Latin American and the Caribbean (LAC) countries. Specifically, we focus on the following three channels through which CC may affect agricultural and non-agricultural production: (i) agricultural yields; (ii) labor productivity in agriculture, and; (iii) economy-wide labor productivity. We implement the analysis using the Integrated Economic-Environmental Model (IEEM) and databases for 20 LAC available through the OPEN IEEM Platform. Our analysis identifies those countries most affected according to key indicators including Gross Domestic Product (GDP), international commerce, sectoral output, poverty, and emissions. Most countries experience negative impacts on GDP, with the exception of the major soybean producing countries, namely, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. We find that CC-induced crop productivity and labor productivity changes affect countries differently. The combined impact, however, indicates that Belize, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Paraguay would fare the worst. Early identification of these hardest hit countries can enable policy makers pre-empting these effects and beginning the design of adaptation strategies early on. In terms of greenhouse gas emissions, only Argentina, Chile and Uruguay would experience small increases in emissions.

Abstract:
The power and promise of genome editing, CRISPR specifically, was first realized with the discovery of CRISPR loci in the 1980s.i Since that time, CRISPR-Cas systems have been further developed enabling genome editing in virtually all organisms across the tree of life.i In the last few years, we have seen the development of a diverse set of CRISPR-based technologies that has revolutionized genome manipulation.ii Enabling a more diverse set of actors than has been seen with other emerging technologies to redefine research and development for biotechnology products encompassing food, agriculture, and medicine.ii Currently, the CRISPR community encompasses over 40,000 authors at 20,000 institutions that have documented their research in over 20,000 published and peer-reviewed studies.iii These CRISPR-based genome editing tools have promised tremendous opportunities in agriculture for the breeding of crops and livestock across the food supply chain. Potentially addressing issues associated with a growing global population, sustainability concerns, and possibly help address the effects of climate change.i These promises however, come along-side concerns of environmental and socio-economic risks associated with CRISPR-based genome editing, and concerns that governance systems are not keeping pace with the technological development and are ill-equipped, or not well suited, to evaluate these risks. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) launched an initiative in 2020 to understand the complexities of these new tools, their potential impacts on the LAC region, and how IDB may best invest in its potential adoption and governance strategies. This first series of discussion documents: “Genome Editing in Latin America: Regulatory Overview,” and “CRISPR Patent and Licensing Policy” are part of this larger initiative to examine the regulatory and institutional frameworks surrounding gene editing via CRISPR-based technologies in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) regions. Focusing on Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Honduras, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay, they set the stage for a deeper analysis of the issues they present which will be studied over the course of the next year through expert solicitations in the region, the development of a series of crop-specific case studies, and a final comprehensive regional analysis of the issues discovered.

Full text
Abstract:
Este estudio evalúa el impacto del Programa de Desarrollo Rural y Agricultura Familiar (PRODAF), un proyecto de subsidios inteligentes que benefició al estrato de agricultores familiares en el noreste de Argentina. La evaluación aprovecha dos fuentes complementarias de datos. La primera es una encuesta de hogares agrícolas con una muestra de 898 productores (534 tratados y 364 control) después de la finalización del proyecto. La segunda utiliza la georreferenciación de las parcelas para medir los rendimientos agrícolas con datos satelitales para una submuestra de 195 productores durante un periodo de 10 años. Utilizando la metodología de Inverse Probability Weighting, encontramos que el PRODAF aumentó la tasa de adopción de tecnologías en 21 puntos porcentuales, e incrementó el acceso a crédito en 47 puntos porcentuales. Superar estas barreras permitió a los productores beneficiarios aumentar el valor de sus ventas e ingresos netos, aunque los impactos fueron dispares entre las cuatro cadenas priorizadas. En cambio, el análisis solo detectó un impacto significativo en los rendimientos para la cadena citrícola, lo cual potencialmente se debe al tipo de tecnología adoptada en esta cadena. Por último, construimos el ndice de Vegetación de Diferencia Normalizada (NDVI) para aproximar la productividad en las cadenas algodonera y citrícola. Aplicando el método de Event Study, confirmamos que la adopción de tecnologías es un proceso complejo que solo desarrolla su impacto completo sobre los rendimientos entre el segundo y tercer año post-tratamiento. Además, confirmamos que el uso de datos satelitales es una herramienta efectiva que estima cambios en los rendimientos con precisión y puede servir para monitorear y evaluar este tipo de intervención de forma contemporánea y a bajo costo.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic affected everyone in the United States, and essential workers across industries like health care, agriculture, retail, transportation and food supply were key to our survival. Immigrants, overrepresented in essential industries but largely invisible in the public eye, were critical to our ability to weather the pandemic and recover from it. But who are they? How did they do the riskiest of jobs in the riskiest of times? And how were both U.S.-born and foreign-born residents affected? This report explores the crucial contributions of immigrant essential workers, their impact on the lives of those around them, and how they were affected by the pandemic, public sentiment and policies. It further explores the contradiction of immigrants being essential to all of our well-being yet denied benefits, protections and rights given to most others. The pandemic revealed the significant value of immigrant essential workers to the health of all Americans. This report places renewed emphasis on their importance to national well-being. The report first provides a demographic picture of foreign-born workers in key industries during the pandemic using U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) data. Part I then gives a detailed narrative of immigrants’ experiences and contributions to the country’s perseverance during the pandemic based on interviews with immigrant essential workers in California, Minnesota and Texas, as well as with policy experts and community organizers from across the country. Interviewees include: ■ A food packing worker from Mexico who saw posters thanking doctors and grocery workers but not those like her working in the fields. ■ A retail worker from Argentina who refused the vaccine due to mistrust of the government. ■ A worker in a check cashing store from Eritrea who felt a “responsibility to be able to take care of people” lining up to pay their bills. Part II examines how federal and state policies, as well as increased public recognition of the value of essential workers, failed to address the needs and concerns of immigrants and their families. Both foreign-born and U.S.-born people felt the consequences. Policies kept foreign-trained health care workers out of hospitals when intensive care units were full. They created food and household supply shortages resulting in empty grocery shelves. They denied workplace protections to those doing the riskiest jobs during a crisis. While legislation and programs made some COVID-19 relief money available, much of it failed to reach the immigrant essential workers most in need. Part II also offers several examples of local and state initiatives that stepped in to remedy this. By looking more deeply at the crucial role of immigrant essential workers and the policies that affect them, this report offers insight into how the nation can better respond to the next public health crisis.
