La producción ganadera es un sector de enorme importancia para la economía nacional. El estancamiento ganadero viene siendo estudiado desde hace largo tiempo. En el transcurso de los últimos años, los indicadores de productividad se han visto incrementados. El sector vinculado a la cría vacuna es el sector que ha mostrado menores niveles de mejora. Dentro del mismo, los pequeños y medianos ganaderos criadores familiares constituyen un número importante de productores, los cuales conforman la mayoría de los pobladores rurales de Uruguay. El estudio identifica los factores que inciden en las decisiones de adopción de tecnología desde el punto de vista de estos productores. Se realizó un estudio de casos múltiples, con 9 (nueve) productores participantes de un proyecto denominado «Integrando Conocimientos» del Plan Agropecuario. El trabajo de campo se realizó entre los meses de octubre y diciembre de 2006. Se visitó a los productores seleccionados y se les preguntó de manera directa acerca de qué hacían y los motivos que tenían para ello. Se logró identificar un número importante de factores que inciden en las decisiones de adopción y no adopción. Este estudio posibilitó además plantear ideas para el diseño de estrategias de intervención, con el objetivo de lograr un mayor desarrollo de este tipo de productores.
