Abstract

[EN] In recent decades, the rural landscape of the Argentine Pampas has undergone a process of simplification due to the increased land allocated to crops, replacing pastures and grasslands, with a substantial increase in soybean area. In 2016-2017, a survey was conducted to analyze changes in cultural ecosystem services in this region. Pergamino citizens relate landscape improvement in terms of aesthetic and recreational values to increasing its complexity since they prefer more winter crops, grazing areas, native vegetation, trees, and birds. The significant relationship between sociodemographic variables and preferences for landscape attributes is consistent with the notion that aesthetic perception is constructed from personal experiences and background. [ES] En las últimas décadas, el paisaje rural de la Pampa argentina ha experimentado un proceso de simplificación debido al aumento de tierras destinadas a cultivos, reemplazando pasturas y pastizales, con un aumento sustancial de la superficie sojera. En 2016-2017, se realizó una encuesta para analizar cambios en los servicios ecosistémicos culturales en esta región. Los ciudadanos de Pergamino relacionan la mejora en el valor estético y recreacional del paisaje con el aumento de su complejidad, ya que prefieren más cultivos de invierno y áreas de pastoreo, vegetación nativa, árboles y aves. La relación significativa entre las variables sociodemográficas y las preferencias por los atributos del paisaje es consistente con la noción de que la percepción de la belleza del paisaje se construye a partir de experiencias personales.
