Abstract

This survey was conducted in Cuenca del Papaloapan, with the purpose of knowing how to manage rice genetic resources. It was aimed at scanning the possible relationship existing between farmers�?? application of technological packages and their management of rice genetic resources in two cooperatives: �??Héctor Montes Parra�?� and �??Juan Pacheco Alemán�?� from Veracruz, Cuenca del Papaloapan. It was proved that by increasing the use of technology in rice, higher yields are recorded than when employing agrochemicals, which are not even related to farmers�?? profits. There was a poor crop diversity, since most growers use �??Milagro Filipino�?? as a single variety.
