To fulfill the mentioned purpose, surveys were started which consisted of 33 questions and were applied in said canton. In the aforementioned villages, the participating population was made up of 42% female and 58% male. The results obtained from the investigation were the identification of general information on tree tomato cultivation in the aforementioned hamlets, where 91% producers obtain their seedlings on their own, 84% do not use grafted plants and 71% .2% occupies the common yellow truth. Regarding the agricultural information of the crop, 96% have not carried out a soil analysis, the age of the crop 58% is three years old and they plant at a distance of 1x1m, 59% plant at a hole depth 25cm, 94% do not apply organic pesticides, the water shift is once a week and 49% have a time of 2h. In relation to agricultural production, 41% carry out the harvest every fourteen days and 67% use the sack to place the fruit. And the causes that affect the production and commercialization of the tree tomato are; presence of pests and diseases, lack of knowledge of crop management and high production costs, and with respect to marketing problems are the power that intermediaries have, the lack of alternatives to the wholesale market and scarce producer organization.
