Descripción
Sumario:In Peru, a key export product is coffee, in particular its Arabica variant. The production areas are located in the high jungle, between 800 meters above sea level and 1,900 meters above sea level. About 60 million wages are generated each year, including those that come from the services of trade and transport of the product. Almost 150,000 families of small farmers have coffee as their livelihood. The research aims to analyze the collective, community and economic situation of small coffee farmers in the district of Tocache in San Martin and determine if the dimensions of associativity, productivity and marketing affect their economic growth. This research was based on a non-experimental, correlational, cross-sectional study and used instruments such as questionnaires and the compilation of data and references through secondary sources. The study population consisted of 200 small coffee farmers scattered throughout the district, who own less than 10 hectares of farmland. As a result of the investigation, it was determined that there is a relationship between associativity, productivity and marketing as dimensions of administrative management of small coffee farmers in the Tocache district that positively affect the economic growth of their community.
