Abstract: This article analyses the agrarian debate in Argentina during the interwar period. Beginning in 1912, times of hardship for grain growers made agrarian conflict a recurrent feature in the Pampean cereal belt. As a result, large estates became the target of much criticism, both in the countryside and the city. This article explores changes in the way rural problems were depicted and discussed, focusing on the climate of ideas and the public mood rather than how individual authors analysed the agrarian question. A look at how the right and the left addressed rural issues also suggests that their contribution was of little significance. Finally, the article explores why the reformist consensus achieved during this period failed to transform the land tenancy structure.
