The use of diverse chemical products in agriculture was the result of industrial an technological models which were adopted at the beginning of the twentieth century and, in particular, as a resul of suggestions arising out of the "green revolution". We highligt the importance of vegetables as a primary consumer of pesticides. We also note that, in spite of the use of agrochemical products in the Valley of Mexicali for various decades, little research has been done regarding the effects on public health and the environment. What little information has been gathered from studies carried out in agricultural zones utilizing these products is alarming. Therefore, we underline the need to carry out research that delves more deeply into long-term effects of the use of such products. Este trabajo se presenta una propuesta de periodización histórica del uso de plaguicidas y otros agroquímicos en el valle de Mexicali, tomando en cuenta la evolución del desarrollo agrícola en la región y su contexto. El uso de una diversidad de productos químicos en la agricultura ha sido resultado de los modelos tecnológicos industriales que se han adoptado desde principios de siglo, especialmente de las sugerencias de la “revolución verde”. Se resalta la importancia que están teniendo las hortalizas como consumidoras de plaguicidas. También se observa que a pesar de que por varias décadas se han usado agroquímicos en la agricultura del valle mexicalense, son escasas las investigaciones sobre su impacto en la salud pública y en el medio ambiente. Lo que se conoce por estudios realizados en zonas agrícolas que utilizan estos productos es preocupante, por lo que se propone la necesidad de realizar estudios que tiendan a profundizar en esa problemática. 2005-07-01 2021-06-03T03:34:49Z 2021-06-03T03:34:49Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Qualitative historical periodization Cualitativo, periodización histórica https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/216 10.21670/ref.2005.12.a05 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6565 spa https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/216/380 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/216/765 Derechos de autor 2014 Estudios Fronterizos Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades application/pdf text/html Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 6 No. 12 (2005); 119-153 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 6 Núm. 12 (2005); 119-153 2395-9134 0187-6961
