Implicaciones de política pública para el desarrollo de agro-iniciativas sostenibles en Caquetá, Guaviare y Putumayo: factores de éxito y cuellos de botella desde la visión del empresario

Abstract

There is a gap in the literature on how and why agro-initiatives emerge. This study addresses this gap through a qualitative approach in which the main success factors and bottlenecks are identified based on interviews with leaders of agro-initiatives in value chains with latent comparative advantage in Caquetá, Guaviare and Putumayo. The analysis is based on CONPES 3866 "National Plan for Productive Development" and considers three levels to understand the determinants of productivity of agro-initiatives: 1) production unit, 2) production factors, and 3) settings. The study's recommendations are oriented toward promoting local enterprises based on value chains with a latent comparative advantage, increasing the possibilities for expansion of local agribusinesses, and creating an inspiring image of local agro-industries and agribusinesses.
