The richness of the cultural values found in the Argentinean Andean communities is integrated by a varied diversity of genetic resources, the development of a sustainable agriculture, and the conservation of the producer’s own seeds. Local agriculture is a family economic activity, in which traditional varieties of vegetable landraces are highly appreciated for their flavour, colour and aromas. However; social, economic and environmental factors have an effect on crop diversity conservation. The main aim of this work was to retrieve and maintain a representative collection of traditional crop genetic resources still cultivated in the District of Valle Fértil, San Juan Province, Argentina, and to document the farmers’ crop experiences and uses. Fifty families were interviewed; 26 of these donated a total of 49 samples belonging to eight species. The landraces collected showed a geometric distribution, typical of communities with low number of species; and a pattern of dominance. A few species are present in almost all farms while rare species are found in specific environments. Local germplasm recovery can prevent genetic erosion, so that both the formal breeding sector and the farmers can make use of the diversity of this collection. La riqueza cultural de las comunidades andinas de la Argentina está integrada por la diversidad de sus recursos genéticos, el desarrollo de un sistema agrícola sostenible y por el mantenimiento de sus semillas. La agricultura local es una actividad económica familiar, donde las variedades tradicionales de hortalizas son muy apreciadas por su sabor, color y aroma. Sin embargo, distintos factores sociales, económicos y ambientales afectan la diversidad de tales cultivos. Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron recuperar y conservar una muestra representativa de los recursos genéticos vegetales tradicionales aún presentes en el departamento de Valle Fértil, provincia de San Juan, Argentina, y documentar las experiencias y usos de ellos por parte de los productores. Se entrevistaron 50 familias de las cuales 26 donaron un total de 49 muestras pertenecientes a ocho especies. Las variedades criollas recolectadas mostraron una distribución geométrica típica en comunidades con pocasespecies, y un patrón de dominancia donde algunas especies están presentes en casi todas las huertas mientras que especies poco representadas se encuentran en ambientes específicos. La recuperación del germoplasma local puede prevenir la erosión genética, de modo que tanto los mejoradores como los productores puedan aprovechar la diversidad de esta colección.

The richness of the cultural values found in the Argentinean Andean communities is integrated by a varied diversity of genetic resources, the development of a sustainable agriculture, and the conservation of the producer’s own seeds. Local agriculture is a family economic activity, in which traditional varieties of vegetable landraces are highly appreciated for their flavour, colour and aromas. However; social, economic and environmental factors have an effect on crop diversity conservation. The main aim of this work was to retrieve and maintain a representative collection of traditional crop genetic resources still cultivated in the District of Valle Fértil, San Juan Province, Argentina, and to document the farmers’ crop experiences and uses.
