| description |
Background and aims: In the NW of Argentina, there are systems of subsistence with cattle extensive management of grazing by family units. They have peasant characteristics, traditional management guidelines, community agreements and a strategy of transhumance in the use of different environmental units. This article identifies the main forage ethnospecies involved, the vernacular categories used for their classification, the livestock management practices implemented and the perceptions related to the landscape and its resources by the transhumant farmers of Iruya (Salta, Argentina).
M&M: Ethnobiological methodology was used to record the manifestations of the biocultural system addressed from the actors' own perspective. The analysis is qualitative with quantitative contributions in the interpretation of the data, this work was carried out between the years 2011-2018.
Results: Eighty-one ethnospecies were identified between wild and cultivated, two vernacular classification systems (one for cattle management and others for forage resource management). A scheme of the availability of fodder in the annual cycle was constructed, based on the supplementation strategies of the domestic units. A livestock management system was observed with two levels of management, one private by the families and the other by the community organization.
Conclusions: Livestock farming, as a productive subsistence practice, offers this society the possibility of building a deep knowledge of the natural environment that influences the interaction between plants, animals and people, which is made operational through a system of environmental management. |

Introducción y objetivos: En el NO de Argentina se encuentran sistemas ganaderos de subsistencia con manejo extensivo del pastoreo a cargo de unidades familiares. Poseen características campesinas, pautas de manejo tradicionales de raigambre andina, acuerdos comunitarios y una estrategia de trashumancia en el uso de diferentes unidades ambientales. En este artículo se identifican las principales etnoespecies forrajeras involucradas, las categorías vernáculas utilizadas para su clasificación, las prácticas de manejo ganadero implementadas y las percepciones relacionadas al paisaje y sus recursos por parte de los campesinos trashumantes de Iruya (Salta). M&M: Se empleó metodología etnobiológica, para registrar las manifestaciones del sistema biocultural abordado desde la propia perspectiva de los actores. El análisis es cualitativo con aportes cuantitativos en la interpretación de los datos, este trabajo se llevó a cabo entre los años 2011-2018. Resultados: Se identificaron 81 etnoespecies entre silvestres y cultivadas, dos sistemas clasificatorios vernáculos (uno de manejo ganadero bovino y otros para el manejo de los recursos forrajeros). Se construyó un esquema de la disponibilidad de forraje en el ciclo anual, en base a las estrategias de suplementación de las unidades domésticas. Se observó un sistema de gestión de la ganadería con dos niveles de manejo, uno privado a cargo de las familias y otro a cargo de la organización comunitaria. Conclusiones: La ganadería como practica productiva de subsistencia, le brinda a esta sociedad la posibilidad de construir un profundo conocimiento del medio natural que influye en la interacción entre vegetales, animales y personas, que se hace operativo por medio de un sistema de gestión del ambiente.
