“Proyecto de creación de un centro de acopio de fréjol en el cantón Pallatanga, provincia de Chimborazo, año 2022.”

Abstract

The present research work does not have administrative and economic planning for a storage center for farmers in the canton of Pallatanga, does not have an infrastructure to store bean production, and lacks technical guidance for the storage and post-harvest processes; in addition to the participation of intermediaries traders who obtain more significant economic benefits than the farmer. The main objective was to design the project for the creation of a bean collection center for Pallangueños farmers. The methodology used was a mixed approach, with explanatory and descriptive methods through techniques such as interviews and surveys with their respective instruments for determining and collecting information. Once the main variables were defined, the proposal was structured to identify the resources needed to execute the project. The supply and demand of the product to be marketed, the investment, costs, and expenses incurred were determined; all this information was evaluated through the economic and financial study. It is concluded that the proposed project for the locality obtained an NPV of $646,395.60 and a positive IRR of 48%, which is why the project is feasible for its execution.
