摘要

I examine how traditional agriculture, mechanized agriculture, agroforestry, and cattle raising are integrated into three types of agricultural land-use portfolios among 65 households across three localities on the Yucatan Peninsula. Findings show that traditional agriculture is practiced across all localities and integrated into the three portfolios, commonly serving as the primary or sole land use. Households receiving agroforestry subsidies or reporting higher agricultural investments, typically associated with mechanized agriculture, tend to incorporate traditional agriculture as a complementary rather than central option. Further research is needed to determine whether the observed land-use patterns primarily reflect differentiated opportunities or are predominantly the outcome of structural constraints.
