description Background and aims: National routes 9 and 34 cross Santiago del Estero, and on its shoulders there are stalls selling cacti. With the aim of registering and identifying the diversity of commercialized species, considering whether they suffer some degree of threat according to the IUCN, describing the forms of access to them in the extraction environments and characterizing the informal spaces of commercialization, the study of this activity was approached from an ethnobotanical perspective. M&M: Open interviews were conducted with residents of both sexes between the ages of 20 and 60 at 25 posts on RN9 and 14 posts on RN34.The number of species, local names, uses, and form and place of collection were recorded at each stall, considering a stable stall to be one with at least 10 individuals for sale. Results & Conclusions: 19 taxa are traded, 13 wild and 6 cultivated, all categorized as "Least Concern" (LC) by IUCN. The collection technique consists of searching for specimens around the houses. The stalls are mostly staffed by women between the ages of 20 and 50 and children between the ages of 10 and 15. Cactus sellers have a Local Knowledge System that allows them to flexibly use plants available in their immediate environment, to which they assign a new value. Considering the IUCN category of all traded species, the activity would not put diversity at risk. This trade could represent a sustainable economic activity for residents of arid zones.

Introducción y objetivos: La provincia de Santiago del Estero está atravesada por las Rutas Nacionales N° 9 y 34, en sus banquinas se instalan puestos de venta informales de Cactáceas. Con los objetivos de registrar e identificar la diversidad de especies comercializadas, considerar si sufren algún grado de amenaza según la UICN, describir las formas de acceso a las mismas en los ambientes de extracción y caracterizar los espacios informales de comercialización, se abordó desde una perspectiva etnobotánica el estudio de esta actividad. M&M: Se realizaron entrevistas abiertas a pobladores de ambos sexos entre 20 y 60 años, en 25 puestos sobre la RN9 y 14 puestos sobre la RN34. En cada puesto se registró cantidad de especies, nombres locales, usos y forma y lugar de recolección, considerando puesto estable al que tenía al menos 10 ejemplares de Cactaceae en venta. Resultados & Conclusiones: Se comercializan 19 taxones, 13 silvestres y 6 cultivados, todos categorizados “Preocupación menor” (LC) por IUCN. La técnica de recolección consiste en la búsqueda de ejemplares en los alrededores de las viviendas. Los puestos son atendidos en su mayoría por mujeres de entre 20 y 50 años y niños de entre 10 y 15 años. Los vendedores de cactus poseen un Sistema de Conocimiento Local (SCL) que les permite utilizar de manera flexible plantas disponibles en su entorno inmediato, a las que les adjudican un nuevo valor. Considerando la categoría de IUCN de todas las especies comercializadas, la actividad no pondría en riesgo la diversidad. Este comercio podría representar una actividad económica sustentable para pobladores de zonas áridas.
