Abstract: The changing characteristics of labour during agrarian restructuring are a result of processes of productive transformation typical of this stage of capitalism, where land consolidation, technological change, and economic strategies adopted by farms to cope with the market are involved in the reorganisation of production and labour. Agriculture in Argentina has seen significant changes since the last quarter of the twentieth century – changes that continue to the present day. Analysis of a varied group of crops shows differences in the demand for labour across different farm-types.
