Abstract

Peasant communities in the central zone of Chile received two heritage crops from past generations: quinua (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) and chili pepper (Capsicum spp.). These crops are valued by consumers, governments, scientists and international organizations for their nutritional contributions, and the environmental services that they can provide in the context of climatic change and biodiversity loss. The hypothesis of this work is that peasant communities have preserved these corps by adapting their agricultural management, processing and marketing systems in response to changes in markets and public policies. The main goal was to identify the adaptation, characterizing and comparing the production, processing and marketing systems in quinua in the dryland area of the Region of O’Higgins to chili pepper in the zone of Villa Prat in the Region of Maule. The results show that the communities have carried out collective and family actions in order to adapt production and processing technologies. In addition, they have established collaborative alliances with public and private institutions to reach different markets. There are differences between the two territories. In the Region of O´Higgins, the government has supported the formation of peasant cooperatives able to process and commercialize quinua in national and international markets. In contrast, in the Region of Maule, support have been focused on improving infrastructure and equipment for individual entrepreneurs processing chili pepper on a family scale. Currently, the government promotes the integration of peasants to short marketing circuits. In this regard, it will be important to develop alliances among producers and urban consumer organizations aware of the nutritional value, peasant origin and heritage characteristics of the products. The peasant communities cultivating chili pepper and quinua have maintained an agricultural heritage of biocultural relevance for the country, which must be conserved.
农民社区、农业遗产和辣椒和藜麦作物的市场
智利中部地区的农民社区从过去几代人那里继承了两种传统作物:藜麦(野生藜麦)和辣椒(辣椒属)。这些作物因其在气候变化和生物多样性丧失的背景下所能提供的营养和环境服务而受到消费者、政府、科学家和国际组织的重视。这项工作的假设是,农民社区通过调整其农业管理、加工和销售系统来应对市场和公共政策的变化,从而保留了这些军团。研究的主要目标是确定O 'Higgins地区旱地奎奴亚与Maule地区Villa Prat地区辣椒的适应性、特征和销售系统,并对其进行比较。结果表明,为了适应生产和加工技术,社区采取了集体和家庭行动。此外,他们还与公共和私人机构建立了合作联盟,以进入不同的市场。这两个地区之间存在差异。在奥希金斯大区,政府支持组建农民合作社,使其能够在国内和国际市场上加工和商业化奎奴亚藜。相反,在马勒地区,支助的重点是改善以家庭为单位加工辣椒的个体企业家的基础设施和设备。目前,政府推动农民整合,缩短营销线路。在这方面,重要的是在生产者和了解产品的营养价值、农民来源和遗产特征的城市消费者组织之间建立联盟。种植辣椒和藜麦的农民社区保留了对该国具有生物文化意义的农业遗产,必须加以保护。
