Took the decision to go inland, leaving aside the hectic pace of Capital and "win the calf is unclear how the wire down." It went looking for "a different lifestyle, I could only imagine in the interior," says the agronomist, 37, business manager of Thomas Brothers & Co. SA. Lives in Pehuajó happy to integrate a community "where everyone is known by name and surname. Everything is much nicer. In line at the supermarket you'll find that you know of the front, the back and serves you" , illustrated. It is one of the many young professionals born and raised in Buenos Aires or Greater Buenos Aires, in the last decade have settled inland, changing electric gate keeper and suit for underwear and sandals. Set foot outside the face with a reality very different: they must insert into new communities adapt to the environment and pace of the place and build bridges of communication that allow them to grow comfortable in their new destinations. The result is an assembly between the local and urban culture, a crossroads of values, customs and idiosyncrasies that, in most cases, produce a positive balance for all: "It is truly virtuous, have spread their entrepreneurial spirit and local society, "describes the responsibility of the job search portal Agrositio Frederick Pike. In the last ten years the production of cereals and oilseeds are doubled, and increased investments in ports, oil industries and storage plants, businesses of chemicals, agricultural machinery, seeds and fertilizer, road and rail corridors. "While in 2000 the harvest of the main grains (wheat, corn, soybean and sunflower) at an international price-value-less than U.S. $ 8 billion in 2008 climbed to more than 33 billion," said the head of the Center Economic Studies of the Grain Exchange Buenos Aires, Ramiro Costa. According to data of Regional Consortiums for Agricultural Experimentation (CREA), grain production increased 130% over the past fifteen years: from 38 million tonnes harvested in 1995 reached 88 million last season. "The planted area also increased by 48%, but at a slower rate than production, reflecting improvements in per hectare yields through new technologies," says project leader of the Movement Economic Approaches CREA, Juan Andres Del Rio . The magnitude of investment and the sophistication of the farming activity required in the last decade, a highly skilled workforce, which largely explains the migration of professionals towards the interior, where the job offers came. The new generation of agricultural technical studies and travels acres of wires and gates with fewer than before, and more sensors, monitors and digital files. One is James Liébana graduate degree in Agronomy from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA), who at 24 was named manager of the company cordgrass Technology in Daireaux party. To Liebana, born and raised in Barrio Norte, moving into the city of fewer than 13,000 inhabitants and 400 km from Buenos Aires, was a natural change. "Here, professionals do not work unless the city, as usually thought. They are all day doing business on the phone, and no naps," says the agronomist, 30, married to a Buenos Aires. Every morning, Liebana travels 35 kilometers to reach the facility Los Alamos, where cordgrass, which manages 30 hectares in Argentina, with fields in the province of Buenos Aires, southern Córdoba and east of La Pampa, and in Uruguay. Once there, providing technology support and from your computer, satellite images and designs low production schemes. Part of the new generation of agricultural technicians to name the GPS as a basic tool for their task and are capable of running most modern techniques of agricultural food production. Other codes According to the director of the consulting Agrostaff, María Rodríguez NATO: "The issue of transfer is on the agenda. The graduates in fields related to the field today find work. Before the famous had to pay dues, not now. We seek and placed at the moment, "he said. For the change to non-traumatic psychological studies are conducted to applicants and their families. "We have to analyze whether they can adapt to the environment, if they will resist," he says. He explains that in addition to evaluating different areas: access to education, health and comfort in the new place. When Oromí Miguel de Escalada, an agronomist for 33 years, was offered the position in the collection Lartirigoyen responded with "yes" immediately. " I knew I should move to Catriló, a town located 600 kilometers pampas of Buenos Aires. "They were very brave the early months is a very small village of 6000 inhabitants, where there are few dining options," says Oromí, who was born and lived in Recoleta. It has the hands gripping the wheel of the truck driving on the highway 188, to its present base General Villegas. Beside her, Josephine Anderson, his wife of two years, provides more anecdotes about the move "has transformed our lives." It is defined as "a typical girl from Palermo, who worked at the center. Today, he serves as head of HR consulting in the area. "The second day I had a job," he says, who a year ago could not have imagined a life away from the speakers of the city. "Before, every Wednesday I hung out with my friends in a pizzeria of the Centre; now, I meet in the Club Atlético de Villegas," says Michael, who is considered "a person representing the people." In the last decade, only in the local oil industry "took more than 3 billion dollars," adds Lopez. "In turn, in the past five years, 500 million more was spent on the production of biodiesel, and converted into new ports, storage facilities and the increase in milling capacity, estimates Costa, from his office in the Buenos Aires Grain Exchange. "It is an oil industry with a processing capacity of 50 million tonnes is above the U.S.. Ours are fewer and larger, compared Gustavo Lopez, analyst at Agritrend. For Lopez, who also works for the Fundación Produce and Conserve: "You need to understand the current process agriculturization within the agribusiness chain, directly or indirectly generates new jobs. Currently, there is a greater demand for skilled labor. Who soybean crop tractor now has a larger, more sophisticated, you do GPS, knows where to go and the type of input to use. Some go abroad for training on how to handle these combines, which cost up to 400 000 dollars. " According to officials to realize youth movements into the interior, what has happened is a natural part of what was once experienced as a violent and traumatic change. "It is commonplace, not a traumatic experience it. They take more naturally," says Rodriguez Otaño. This is true they have expanded the possibilities to destinations as far away as Santiago del Estero and Chaco. "Before we did not reach there," he warns. Frederick Pike produces a genesis of the phenomenon: "In the 70's began a major wave of young people from Buenos Aires that was installed on the inside." Then, this migration slowed its intensity until the last few years, which has promoted the transfer. "It's amazing the number of cases of young installed not only in the pampas, also in Salta, Tucumán, Santiago del Estero up," he notes. "In the initial stage, young professionals are encouraged to move with the spirit of adventure. The problem may arise when the woman if married, is a Buenos Aires who lives in Santa Fe and Callao, because it can cost more change . However, before applying for the transfer, 80% have consulted with your partner, "said Pike. In 2008, with the farm crisis, migration stagnated for some months. However, in recent times laborales.María resurfaced offers Olmos, agronomist for 28 years born in the capital, stood at the edge of the road in those days of tension and supported one of the first rural protests in Tres Arroyos, where he lived then. Just a few months later, married and returned to Buenos Aires to be installed. But the change was not positive: "I got sick of the city, the cost of living was very high and to get from one place to another lost too long," he insists. One of his first investments was a newlywed in Pehuajó buy land where he imagined himself commanding a family. "We had to invest in something for tomorrow. The question was terrible because it was a complicated time. We decided on the ground in Pehuajó" recalls Mary. So it was that after completing his degree in Agricultural and Food Management farewell to the Obelisk and was reunited with green and pure country air. It was early this year when he decided to leave for Pehuajó, along with her new husband, Joaquin Oliverio, who runs camps in different areas of Argentina. Now she is awaiting planting, crop or fallow, and works in the commercial area of collecting Thomas SA. Defend your bet: "The inside is growing, previously all went to the Capital, but now many come down here."
Exchanges In Trenque Lauquen, Luciano La Piettra ensures instant received a welcome from the locals. At age 27, with its Agricultural Engineering studies completed at the UBA, moved to this city to develop as commercial sales of agro (fertilizers, pesticides and seeds). The Piettra, who was born and raised in Ciudad Evita, explains: "I was accepted for entry. The key is to not go out with strange things. First we must adapt and then go push some changes. Trust is very important. They have trust you to hear what you say, what they propose, "he says. According to the Human Resources consultant Marina Eguren, which operates in the northwest corner of the province of Buenos Aires, the interesting thing about this phenomenon is what it means culturally to young people and the local community. "Sometimes it's difficult to find. Some come from urban areas, with greater emotional distance, where people are anonymous, where there are many proposals for activities, many fun and educational options. When they arrive at their new destinations, the city tend to think the thing that works is to do all over again. Fast and efficient, as only a matter of will, "notes Eguren, a psychologist who graduated from the UBA. Another young professionals to venture into the bulk is Diego Sanchez, his destination: a village in southeastern Cordoba called Inriville. From the comfort of your home in front of the Jockey Club in San Isidro, went to live in more than 450 kilometers from the Capital. The reason that sponsored such a change was his calling by the field. "I came to live in the country because I have agricultural vocation, the life I had," says the agronomist, married to Dolores Rodrigue, by setting ceremony in 2003. "When we came to live in the country before the devaluation, the prospect of work here was synonymous starve," he says, adding that by the movement of agricultural experience the same level of adrenaline in Buenos Aires. "While many continue to think that we live by eating roast," he complains. Despite the "remarkable cultural difference", he managed to partner with some of the locals to found a company of harvest. "We are like water and oil, but together we are the perfect mix," celebrates the engineer, 32, who initially felt a little intimidated by parochial traditions. The most positive thing that first move, now is installed next to his wife in Canada Rica, south of Santa Fe, was the combine in which has already invested more than five years. "I with numbers, and the locals with the irons. Thanks to the passion they feel for the machines, they know exactly how much a combine and how to maintain it. When the crisis came, we agreed to move forward," he recalls. As described by Eguren, these young professionals spread customs and habits, educational, cultural, employment and recreation to new premises. "They bring innovative ideas and if you have the patience to allow them to proceed from the local base, shoring and highlighting those good features local women, produce excellent results for all." By Victoria Pérez Zabala revista@lanacion.com.ar BOYS AND SCHOOL: A MAJOR CHALLENGE One of the areas in which it has become more visible hand of the newcomers is in education. The main reason: they want their children to have the same opportunities they had in schools in the Capital and Greater Buenos Aires. "People who come to Buenos Aires seeking the same opportunities they had to leave behind," says Carmen Sackman, from his home in Pehuajó, she shares with her husband James Rocca, and their four children. "The community involvement is necessary and has more impact," said Carmen, who is psychologist and worked in the school's parents committee of Santa Maria, founded 18 years ago. "Of the ten marriage founders, five were local and the rest natives of Capital and Greater Buenos Aires. It is useful to engage young couples," he suggests. "Together with young professionals, locals are developing plans for social development through Caritas Pehuajó. For example, a school of gardeners," he enthuses. "I go if my child takes place at the Colegio Santa Maria, is the warning that comes to the school principal model, with advanced studies in English, Paula Fourcade, on behalf of the wives of young professionals. "In recent years there was a boom, and we are left with no room for the lower grades," says Fourcade, graduated from the Instituto Lenguas Vivas. The director explained the difficulties of installing a private school that requires payment of a fee in the interior. "The locals were not used to having to pay for education, although they have a good economic status, many do not choose us," he says, but says that lately have been joining many who have passed both the children of Buenos Aires . Santa Maria College near Los Medanos Lauquen Trenque, Alba School, Lincoln, and the New Groove, Latin, form a network that allows them to exchange information and strategies to enhance educational development in different areas. RENEWED DEMANDS When at age 27 and about to be received a BA in Communication Sciences Agustina Ocampo decided to marry porvivir chose a stay at Pebbles, a town 490 kilometers from the capital. "I do not find anything more than a lonely, stagnant and deserted," he thought. But just five months after moving, got a job in the communication area of agro business, where today, two years later, continues its work. "I realized that the distances, at first I was afraid, were not so many. Ten years ago there was no light here, and now the roads are still dirt, but with the Internet is much easier. The distances are shorter, observed. As the inner cities get larger, emerging demands for services that did not exist. "New opportunities have appeared in professional development activities such as education, marketing, design, consulting, entrepreneurship, culinary, arts and business, thanks to the gradual increase in inland communities," says HR consultant Marina Eguren. Spillover Almost 40% of Argentina's population has any activity related to agriculture. According to a study by economist and former Minister of Education of Argentina Juan Llach, for each of the 1.2 million direct jobs in the primary stage are generated 3.83 jobs in other stages and sectors, totaling 4 4 million. This represents a ratio of almost 5 to 1 between the direct and indirect employment. Consulted experts describe it as spillover. "It only benefits the producer behind soy is also the one who put a restaurant in town. There is a direct impact on job creation in the establishment of each of the industrial chains in the early stages of production, industrialization or marketing. But, in turn, there is an indirect impact on input demand for each of the sectors which manufactures wire and rubber for machine reasoning Gustavo Lopez, consultant Agritrend. Given the importance of this sector in the national economy, the increased production will promote more jobs, both direct and indirect, with the consequent spillage in improving the quality of life of society as a whole.
