Note 23 — Chapter II · THE OASES OF THE NORTH-WEST AND PASTORAL LIFE IN THE SCRUB
Reading edition
The fattening of cattle for Chile was no longer done in the invernadas of Mendoza at the beginning of the nineteenth century. See an article on Mendoza in the Telegrafo Mercantil, January 31, 1802, which tells of the development of ranches on the Tunuyan. Mendoza and San Juan were their only markets, and they did not sell cattle to Chile.
