description | The bovine meat sector in Argentina has been showing various changes in recent years. Two of the most relevant are the increase in the bovine stock and the decrease in the number of producing establishments, which could imply a process of production growth with concentration. The objective of this work is to carry out an analysis on the inequality and concentration of cattle and bovine establishments in the provinces of Argentina in the period 2012-2021. For this, the GINI index and the Herfindahl-Hirschman index were built and obtained from the stratification of establishments, making a comparison of the evolution between the years raised. The results show that there is a good distribution of the stock by strata, but comparatively in the years there was an increase in inequality and concentration. Based on these two results, three groups of provinces could be formed. |

Dos de los más relevantes son el aumento del stock bovino y la disminución en el número de establecimientos productores, lo que podría suponer un proceso de crecimiento de producción con concentración. El objetivo del presente trabajo es realizar un análisis sobre la desigualdad y la concentración del ganado y los establecimientos bovinos en las provincias de Argentina en el período 2012-2021. Para esto, se construyeron y obtuvieron los índice GINI e índice de Herfindahl-Hirschman a partir de la estratificación de establecimientos, haciendo un comparativo de la evolución entre los años planteados. Los resultados muestran que existe una buena distribución del stock por estratos, pero con un aumento en la desigualdad y concentración. En base a estos dos resultados, se pudieron conformar tres grupos de provincias. Facultad de Ciencias Económicas.
