【 摘 要 】

In the conservation of natural resources and the preservation of environmental quality, the participation of the decision making actors, specially the local producers, is very important, . This way, some characteristics of the decision making actors in livestock systems in the high Guarinó river basin are presented in this article. Some of them highlight: gender, origin, piece of land ownership and size, age, education, participation, among others. This study allowed to evidence the heterogeneity of livestock farmers in the region, and to recognize, the environmental problems they perceive and the water conservation practices they use. And even though significant relations between characteristics of the decision making actors , the environmental problems and the conservation practices were not found, some recommendations for the design of conservation strategies in the high basin are made based upon the results found.
