Descripción
Sumario:his article discusses the territorial implications generated by three productive activities inthe Hermosillo,sonora coastal strip: charcoal production, harvesting of marine species, andshrimp farms. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews and the generationof a complex database. The results indicate a loss of mesquite ecosystems, an increased de-nuding of rangeland, wide variation in the catch of various species in coastal fisheries, com-plete loss of vegetation in some places, and a change in the hydrology in aquaculture zones.Finally, the article analyzes a set of synergies that positively articulate the three activities insome cases, but generate unhealthy competition in others.
