    Efecto de la participación de la agricultura familiar y campesina en la producción de alimentos para la seguridad alimentaria en la Provincia de Tungurahua en los cantones Píllaro, Mocha y Tisaleo

    Family farming is important throughout Ecuador because it is the main source of work and food for the entire population. However, food production must be planned in order to avoid excess and, as a consequence, overproduction, thus endangering food security. The methodology used in this work includes a mathematical model to determine the production zones in the cantons of Píllaro, Mocha and Tisaleo. For this, we used the GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System) software, which is designed to solve problems of linear and nonlinear systems, as well as the use of SPSS Statistics, which allows us to perform statistical analysis and descriptions, among others. The data obtained from the surveys of 244 farming families in the three cantons and the collection of data on the main crops through MAGAP helped us determine the production and yield of the most harvested crops in each canton. Therefore, the results obtained indicate that the current agricultural production guarantees the availability of food throughout the year, ensuring that all people have access at all times, thus guaranteeing food security for the entire population.

    Aplicación de modelos matemáticos para la determinación de zonas de producción en el cantón Píllaro para garantizar la seguridad alimentaria
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ciencia e Ingeniería en Alimentos y Biotecnología. Carrera de Ingeniería en Alimentos, 2022-03) Tubón Saquinga, Bélgica Janneth; Franco Crespo, Christian David
    Agricultural activity is very important in all sectors of Ecuador because this is one of the main sources of work and food for many inhabitants. However, the absent planning when planting the different products means that sometimes they are grown in excess and therefore are marketed at low prices or on the contrary that they are not grown, and prices are relatively high. The current production system, irrigation water, labor, and the investment that each farmer has for his crops are some of the factors that influence agricultural production. For this reason, the methodology includes the design of a mathematical model to determine the production areas in the canton of Píllaro. For this, the GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System) program was used, designed mainly to solve problems of nonlinear and linear systems, based on data obtained through surveys of 85 farmers from different areas of the canton. On the other hand, the analysis of three food security indicators was applied to know how this situation is in the canton of Píllaro. The results indicate that current agricultural production guarantees the food security of the inhabitants and the territories to which their products arrive. This is because the products grown are sufficient to ensure the availability and demand of food for consumers.

    Análisis exploratorio del efecto COVID19 a nivel socio-económico en conglomerados de productores de cebada (Hordeun Vulgare L.) en la provincia Cotopaxi
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ciencia e Ingeniería en Alimentos y Biotecnología. Carrera de Ingeniería en Alimentos, 2022-03) Iza Rivera, Cristian Alexander; Peñafiel Ayala, Rodny David
    The present work focuses on the effect caused by COVID19 at the socio-economic level in the barley production chain in the province of Cotopaxi. Comparisons of production, demographics and perception of the impact of COVID19 in terms of performance were analyzed. The actors of the productive chain analyzed were grouped through a conglomerate analysis, in addition, primary and support activities were mapped. The parishes that were under study were Belisario Quevedo, Guaytacama, Mulaló, Poaló, San Juan de Pastocalle and Tanicuchí. With this information, the study aims to transmit key information for decision-making, which is carried out by public-private stakeholders. that are involved in this productive sector.
