ABSTRACT: A turning point in the Uruguayan economy came in 1987 with the creation of its Forestry Law, aimed at promoting the expansion of monoculture alien tree plantations. With the forestry came the foreign-owned pulp mills, and in 2007 the first load of cellulose was produced in Uruguay near the small interior city of Fray Bentos. Along with nearly one million hectares of Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified planted forest, the arrival of the pulp mill and eucalyptus trees brought with them the promise of more jobs for the country’s interior, where rates of unemployment are highest, and an industry relying on the ‘‘best technology available’’ to ensure the most sustainable practices. With these developments, Uruguay officially entered the ‘‘green economy.’’ Yet, while the government and industry work to ensure that the environmental benefits of trees are recognized and contamination levels minimized, very little has been said on how small farmers working the land in the country’s rural areas have been affected by the changing industry. Loss of productive land and traditional livelihoods, drying water wells, social isolation, and the destruction of longstanding communities are just some of the underexplored consequences of the plantation economy. Taking into account these impacts, this article will examine the ways that the growing pulp/plantation industry is changing the socio-cultural relationships of ranchers and farmers with the land on which they live and work and suggests that assessments of industry’s environmental impacts need to consider residents’ accounts of change along with the quantitative data to build a complete picture.
