Abstract: Part-time farming (PTF) is a form of organisation that has remained as a structural adaptation to capitalism in every agricultural system in Europe. This article employs the ethnographic method to analyse, from a processual and intergenerational perspective, the starting strategies and future prospects for part-time viticulture in the Catalan region of Penedès. We suggest that PTF strategies, aided by employment conditions in the industrial sector, are intended to maintain, grow, and modernise family farms whose continuity is conditioned by gender and heritage symbolic values. First-generation PTF helped to avoid deagrarianisation. Though still connected to family land, the second generations present a wider range of future prospects – from abandoning agricultural activities altogether to returning to exclusive dedication to agriculture.
