Sumario:Agricultural modernization, represented today by the expansion of the agribusiness model, is based on the consolidation of infrastructure systems and business topologies that modify the way in which the territory is used. The process of agricultural modernization through the network of fixed lines and flows that stimulate this activity is analysed in this paper. Among the fixed, we are interested in observing the engineering systems that allow the transport of grains both in the Pampas region and in the expansion areas of modern agriculture, the grain collection network, the commercial structure linked to the distribution of agricultural inputs and the industrial structure linked to the transformation of grains. In relation to flows, we are interested in observing the percentages of grains produced and transported and especially recognizing the territorial distribution of productive specializations that explain such flows, specifically: areas of production extraction, areas of industrial transformation, areas of collection and export. All of the above will be crossed by the analysis of the spatial circuit of agricultural production and the analysis of some representative case studies of southern Córdoba.
