GUZMAN-GOMEZ, Elsa  and  LEON-LOPEZ, Arturo. Peasant peculiarities in rural Morelos. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.44, pp.175-200. ISSN 2448-6183.

In rural Morelos, the agricultural activities are still important despite the proximity and competition for resources with large cities, industrial processes and the growth of the service sector. Agricultural lands hold multiple crops both for self-supply and the market. Small farmers integrate a complex set of objectives, their proper economic resources and social and family networks. This peasant strategy denotes the viability of rural life and also provides multiple services to society.

Keywords : peasant security; rural multi-activity; market; peasant strategy.
