Description:This article examines the role of agriculture as an engine of local development. To this end, the experience of four municipalities in Guatemala, where two large agricultural extension and two practiced small-scale agriculture is analyzed. The results show differences between groups. In the first the poverty rate remained high, while in the second the poverty rate fell by a significant amount over a period of six years. Municipalities differ in geographic location, size and ethnic composition, but have in common agriculture as main activity.
