The Saraguro Indians of Ecuador's southern Loja Province have earned a degree of economic independence through cattle production. Many Saraguros own large cattle ranches which sometimes puts them at odds with the rest of the Indian movement which is largely comprised of poor people chronically short of land. This has led to contradictory approaches to land reform on the part of Ecuador's Indigenous populations, which underscores the complexity of ethnic movements in that country.
