In the last 15 years some local people started inquiring about the connection between the dust that the mills generates and the prevalence of carcinogenic and respiratory diseases and the high rate of deaths expanding in the city known as the capital center of rice. The article explores how the advancement of the agribusiness, affects the relation of proximity between the agricultural land, the mill and the city, making of it a ‘sacrifice zone’ where development becomes associated to body and environment degradation. The study focusses in how it is incarnated the corporeal and discursive embodiment of the cost of this model of development. This research was developed through the use of interviews and the environmental and the socio-health reports from UNLP and UNR respectively.  En cada marzo, en San Salvador, Entre Ríos, se genera una bruma que crece hasta que envuelve a toda su ciudad como resultado del procesamiento del arroz. En los últimos 15 años algunos pobladores comenzaron a preguntarse sobre la conexión entre el polvillo que se genera en los molinos y la preponderancia de enfermedades cancerígenas y respiratorias y la alta tasa de fallecimientos expandiéndose en la ciudad conocida como la capital nacional del arroz. El artículo explora cómo el avance del agronegocio, afecta aquella relación de proximidad entre el campo, el molino y la ciudad, convirtiéndola en una ‘zona de sacrificio’ donde el desarrollo resulta asociado a la degradación de los cuerpos y el ambiente. El estudio indaga cómo se encarna corporal y discursivamente los costos de este modelo de desarrollo para sus pobladores. Para el presente trabajo se realizaron entrevistas y se apoyó fuertemente en los informes ambientales (UNLP) y socio-sanitarios desarrollados en San Salvador (UNR).
