2021
This research was carried out in order to characterize and diagram the coffee value
chain in the Puyango canton in the traditional and associative modality, with each of its
links and actors. In the development, the methodological guide for facilitation in value
chains Value Links was required, with which the diagnosis of the current situation,
characterization and mapping of the traditional and associative value chain was carried
out, in order to later be able to compare them. To identify the base population of the
research, information provided by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock was used as
references, in addition, since it was a quantitative research, based on non-probabilistic
samples, the chain or ball sampling was used jointly. snow and for convenience, since it
was required to identify key participants who were more easily accessed and they in turn
provided information on possible participants in the sample that could expand the
information. In the research, it was possible to establish value chains in both the
traditional and associative modes, which are made up of suppliers, producers, collectors,
processors and marketers. It was possible to identify specific characteristics of each of
the actors, mainly the producer; who generates greater added value, since the sowing,
care, harvest and post-harvest processes have a direct impact on the quality of the coffee,
however, it is the one that presents the greatest problems, mainly due to low economic
performance since it is the intermediaries who have better profitability, this happens
mainly with those independent producers who do not have tools that allow them to better
develop their production processes, as in the case of associated producers, who have the
support of the associations in the case of PROCAP , has organic certification, fair price,
among others, and the AGROSOLEDAD association that is currently responsible not
only for the production of raw material but has also managed to establish its own brand
of roasted and ground coffee.
