Named after José Manuel Estrada and other leaders, it sought to empower rural communities, improve economic conditions, and foster regional identity. The movement played a key role in advocating for agricultural interests, supporting national sovereignty, and encouraging modern infrastructure. Overall, it was a structured push for rural progress and cultural unity, influencing Argentine politics and society during that period.
