LEON ANDRADE, Marilu et al. And Who will Work the Land?: Migration of Ejido Owners from Valle de Santiago to the United States. Migr. Inter [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.4, pp.171-203. ISSN 2594-0279.
In this article, the link between international migration processes in four ejidos in the municipality of Valle de Santiago, Guanajuato and their effects on the market and land valuation are analyzed. The study was conducted in a region with an immigration tradition and high agricultural productivity, where the migratory phenomenon has continued throughout three or four generations of ejido residents, who were the subject of the study. The methodology was based on the qualitative and quantitative approach, in which surveys and in-depth interviews were applied. It is concluded that among the new generations of ejido residents, migration has encouraged the rent rather than the sale of ejido lands at the same time as it has reshaped and contrasted the appreciation and appraisal of land. For young people, land is losing its economic, historical and cultural value.
