description Background and aims: The fairs and markets present in the cities are a sample of the biocultural heritage of a region. The objective of this work is to identify and characterize the social actors and the places of sale -in addition to determining their relationship with agrobiodiversity- in fairs and markets in the city of Córdoba and surroundings. M&M: Based on participant observation, interviews with different degrees of structure, 30 municipal fairs (FM) and 5 agroecological fairs (FA) were visited. Species and product censuses were carried out. Variance analyzes and similarity indices (Sörensen) were carried out between the different points of sale. Results: The social actors identified in the commercialization were, in FM, “feriantes” or “puesteros” (they manage 49 species, most of them exotic); in FA, “productores agroecológicos”, “distribuidores” and “elaboradores” (manage 49 species, mostly native). In addition, the presence of “vendedoras ambulantes” was identified (they offer 8 species of Andean tradition). The species have greater similarity between FM and FA than between fairs and “vendedoras ambulantes”. Conclusions: The complementarity and differences between the fairs and the market depend on the characteristics of the social actors involved, the buyer/seller relationship, their botanical knowledge, personal, cultural and economic values that determine and influence the present agrobiodiversity; they all develop sales strategies that combine “tradition” and “innovation”. The different options in the markets favor the formation of a complex and dynamic urban botanical knowledge.

Introducción y objetivos: Las ferias y mercados presentes en las ciudades son muestra del patrimonio biocultural de una región. El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar y caracterizar los actores sociales y los sitios de expendio, además de determinar su relación con la agrobiodiversidad, en ferias y mercados de la ciudad de Córdoba y alrededores.  M&M: A partir de observación participante, entrevistas con distinto grado de estructura, se visitaron 30 ferias municipales (FM) y 5 agroecológicas (FA). Se realizó censos de especies y de productos. Se efectuaron análisis de la Varianza e índices de similitud (Sörensen) entre los distintos puntos de expendio.  Resultados: Los actores sociales identificados en la comercialización fueron, en FM, “feriantes” o “puesteros” (manejan 49 especies, en mayoría exóticas); en FA, “productores agroecológicos”, “distribuidores” o “elaboradores” (manejan 49 especies, en su mayoría nativas). Además, se identificó la presencia de vendedoras ambulantes (ofrecen 8 especies de raíz andina). Las especies tienen mayor similitud entre FM y FA que entre ferias y vendedoras ambulantes.   Conclusiones: La complementariedad y diferencias entre las ferias y el mercado dependen de las características de los actores sociales involucrados, la relación comprador/vendedor, sus conocimientos botánicos, valores personales, culturales y económicos que determinan e influye en la agrobiodiversidad presente; todos desarrollan  estrategias de venta que combinan “tradición” e “innovación”.
