Diseño del plan estratégico para el desarrollo económico local con enfoque en cadenas productivas de la parroquia García Moreno provincia de Orellana-Ecuador

Abstract

The value chain is the sequence of activities necessary to bring the products from the point of cultivation and production to the final consumer. Therefore, it is directly linked to economic development and is part of the social progress generated by production chains within communities and small towns since all the actors involved circumstantially improve their income, all aiming to create an improvement in local and family economic development. For this reason, this study aimed to develop a strategic plan for improving the local economy with a focus on productive chains within the García Moreno of El Coca canton, Orellana province. This study follows a methodology with a mixed approach, that is, qualitative and quantitative, through a documentary bibliographic study and at the same time in the field to know first-hand the needs of the parish and its inhabitants. This process allowed the collection of documentary and source information. Finally, the production procedures developed in Garcia Moreno are carried out in productive processes and chains with empirical foundations transmitted from parents to children. However, the population of Garcia Moreno is predisposed to receive help from specialized institutions to learn new technical processes. In addition, the population has several strengths since the variable climate would allow the cultivation of various short-cycle products, improving the family economy
