Abstract

El artículo analiza los orígenes de la ganadería bovina en la provincia de El Socorro (nororiente de Colombia) desde las dinámicas en la posesión de tierras, la adecuación de potreros en las estancias y haciendas para las razas criollas, el intercambio económico con los llanos del Casanare y los intereses pecuarios de los insurgentes de 1781. A partir de la consulta en los archivos notariales de El Socorro, trabajos de grado sobre demografía y movimiento de tierras y estudios de especialistas sobre la historia de la ganadería en Colombia, se demuestra que desde sus orígenes como provincia se fomentó la producción, intercambio y comercialización del ganado bovino a la par de sus tradicionales comercios interprovinciales de mieles, tabacos y artesanías de algodón. ***** This paper analyses the origins of cattle in the province of Socorro (north eastern Colombia) from the dynamics of land ownership, adequacy of pastures on farms and ranches for landraces, economic exchange with the plains of Casanare and livestock interests of the insurgents of 1781. Notarial archives of Socorro, graduate theses on demographics and earth moving and specialist studies on the history of livestock in Colombia, demonstrate that from its origins as a province, the production, exchange and trading of cattle was promoted at the same time as traditional interprovincial trade of honey, tobacco and cotton handicrafts.
