No full textFarmers' Use of Improved Seed Selection Practices in Mexican Maize: Evidence and Issues from the Sierra de Santa Marta
No full textThe principal advantage of in situ conservation is that it allows adaptive evolutionary processes to continue in the species that are being conserved. For a cultivated crop species, in situ conservation involves farmers' management of their own genetic resources even as the farmers themselves adapt to a changing environment. Improved seed selection practices and other on-farm breeding strategies have been proposed as a means of providing economic incentives for farmers to continue growing traditional varieties or landraces identified as important for conservation. This paper describes a pilot study among a group of indigenous farmers in the Sierra de Santa Marta, Veracruz, Mexico, who have collaborated in such efforts. The findings raise key issues about the potential impact of such an approach, as well as some useful methodological points for applied economists. In the study area, there is a high frequency of experimentation, exchange, loss, and replacement of seed over time -- seed of the same varieties, including both modern and traditional varieties. This poses a challenge for economists' models of varietal choice, which tend to be based on static perceptions of a 'variety' as well as simplistic distinctions between 'modern' and 'traditional' varieties. Seed selection in the study area is not a single event but an iterative, continuous process. Women may be more involved in seed selection than previously thought, which may have implications for the welfare impact of new seed selection practices. Other implications of the study are that (1) the impact of introducing practices to enhance farmers' varieties is likely to be diffuse and difficult to observe, predict, or measure, and (2) in developing analytical models of farmer decision-making as it affects the diversity of genetic resources on the farm, the most appropriate unit of analysis for predicting the effects of some policy interventions is not likely to be the individual farmer or the individual farm household. A better understanding of the 'social infrastructure' shaping seed and information flows is needed, since in the diffusion of innovations of this type, the seed system is based entirely on farmers and their interactions.Crop Production/Industries,
Stages for the More Sustainable Farm
No full textCurrently, agricultural farm units are faced with a double and most times contradictory challenge, in order to be successful: on the one hand the invested capital has to be profitable and the economic performance has to be maximised. On the other hand, given the socio-environmental situation, it is necessary to preserve and to protect the environment and natural resources. Given the potential conflict of the two aims, since the satisfaction of one implies the underperformance of the other (and vice versa), the question then is: which is the solution to choose? We intend, in this work, to formulate a farm plan with the purpose of reconciling the criteria of environmental sustainability with that of economic competitiveness. For this achievement we proceed to the comparative study of sustainability of different groups of farms identified in the study area (first evaluation cycle) through MESMIS (“Marco para la Evaluación de Sistemas de Manejo de Recursos Naturales Mediante Indicadores de Sustentabilidad” - Framework for Evaluation of Natural-Resource Systems Handling through Sustainability Indicators) methodology, that allowed to select the more sustainable group of farms. Based on the found potentialities and weakness on these production systems, we stepped to the planning of a production unit of bovine meat, which obeys simultaneously to economic and environmental objectives, using Multicriteria Decision. We finished the work with the sustainability evaluation between groups of farms identified previously and the planned farms (second evaluation cycle), based, again, in the MESMIS methodology, to confirm (or not) the greatest sustainability of the last ones. Analyses of the results allow us to confirm the greatest relative sustainability of the planned farm, for the diverse traced scenarios.Decision taking, planning, sustainability, Environmental Economics and Policy, Farm Management,
Informe de gestion de las practicas realizadas en el area de compras de la Sociedad Portuaria Santa Marta
No full textEl presente proyecto de grado tiene como objetivo principal la ampliación del portafolio de proveedores de agentes de carga para compras internacionales en la Sociedad Portuaria Regional de Santa Marta. Actualmente, la empresa opera exclusivamente con un único agente de carga, Malco Cargo (TCC y Mario Londoño), lo cual limita las opciones disponibles para la gestión de envíos y puede afectar la eficiencia y competitividad en el manejo de la carga internacional. La Sociedad Portuaria Regional de Santa Marta, una de las principales terminales portuarias del país, enfrenta el desafío de diversificar sus proveedores de agentes de carga para optimizar sus procesos de logística y mejorar el servicio ofrecido a sus clientes. La dependencia de un único agente de carga presenta riesgos asociados con la falta de alternativas en términos de costos, tiempos de tránsito y calidad del servicio.Abstract
The main objective of this thesis is to expand the portfolio of freight forwarder suppliers for international purchases at the Sociedad Portuaria Regional de Santa Marta. Currently, the company operates exclusively with a single freight forwarder, Malco Cargo (TCC and Mario Londoño), which limits the options available for managing shipments and may affect efficiency and competitiveness in the handling of international cargo. Sociedad Portuaria Regional de Santa Marta, one of the main port terminals in the country, faces the challenge of diversifying its freight forwarder suppliers to optimize its logistics processes and improve the service offered to its customers. Dependence on a single freight forwarder presents risks associated with the lack of alternatives in terms of costs, transit times and quality of service.Resumen -- Abstrac -- 0 Introduccion -- 0.1 Planteamiento del problema -- 0.2 Justificación e importancia -- 0.3 Objetivos -- 0.3.1 Objetivo general -- 0.3.2 Objetivos especificos -- 0.4 Marco teórico -- 0.5 Metodología -- 1 Descripción y naturaleza de la organización -- 1.1 Razón social de la empresa -- 1.2 Misión -- 1.3 Vision -- 1.4 Valores -- 1.5 Estructura organizativa -- 1.6 Requerimiento de la organización -- 1.7 Información de la persona de contacto -- 1.8 Actividades realizadas (informe de gestión) -- 2 Desarrollo de la propuesta de valor -- 2.1 Diagnóstico (situación encontrada) -- 2.2 Plan de acción -- 2.3 Propuesta de valor -- 3 Limitaciones -- 4 Conclusiones -- 5 Recomendaciones -- 6 Referencias bibliograficasPregradoProfesional en Comercio Internaciona
