The objectives of this work are, in a first place, know the relationship between family farming of the Pampas region of Argentina with the different factors of production trying to verify whether, in the context of this region increasingly specialized in the production of soybean, embedded in global marketing channels, it is possible to find a particular way of organizing work, relating to the land resource and / or capitalizing (invest in technology) that distinguishes family farming from other forms of production, and on a second place, inquire about the processes of change that have occurred in the dynamics of these families, whose has adopted "modern" behaviors and values characteristic of urban families, to study their impact on the organization of the production unit. In this sense, we first observed the characteristic that presents the link between this type of units with different factors of production (land, capital and labor), and then, we suggest an analysis of the changes crossed by the families involved that have been influencing the way decisions are token and the impact on the production unit. For the methodological approach, we work with a survey of family farmers from a sample of agricultural establishments in the district of Junin, located on the Pampas, on the northwest of the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
