OROZCO HERNANDEZ, María Estela. Articulation of domestic economies to the regional development of Alto Lerma, Mexico. Pap. poblac [online]. 2005, vol.11, n.46, pp.189-222. ISSN 2448-7147.

Nowadays, the cooperative economies are articulated to the regional dynamics by urban economic activities and the complementary agricultural and cattle activities. The multiple occupation of the cooperative population responds to the loss of importance of agriculture and to the reduced profitability of the production unit, at the same time, it expresses a change in the orientation of the domestic economies in search of better life conditions. It is important for us to analyze the implications of the contact between the cooperative economies and the urban environment. The adopted approach is of an analytic-synthetic nature and is based on the statistic and documental information available, as well as the data from the 439 questionnaires applied in selected production units in the agricultural year 2001-2002.
