Riassunto:The article offers a comprehensive vision of the Ecuadorian agrarian sector. On the one hand, it incorporates those conflicting political and economic conjunctures in which the country has been involved. On the other hand, it rejects any image of do-nothing policy or of homogenization of agriculture and/or the Ecuadorian rural space. In this sense, between 1980 and 2005, the Ecuadorian agrarian sector has drawn a trajectory marked by four facts: a) the consolidation of structures that continue being very unbalanced social and territorially, b) a less fast growth of the agricultural border, an increase of lands dedicated to grass, a reorientation of lands cultivated in benefit of exporting items or about urban massive demand, and a considerable increase of the cattle activity, c) a remarkable rise of the physical production that joins to a significant decrease of the prices perceived by the agriculturists in real terms, and d) a remarkable expansion of the agricultural exports, what is possible thanks to a sensible diminution of the unitary prices of the sold agro-alimentary goods to the outside.
