Comercialización del cacao producido en la vereda La Pica, municipio de Arauquita, departamento de Arauca.

Abstract

For 2000 years, the cultivation of cocoa in the pre-Columbian age was considered one of the primary sources of food, economy and commercialization. However, throughout history, the cultivation of this plantation has won strength due to the diversity of products derived from it, thus representing one of the most important sources of Colombian agriculture. Given this perspective, initiatives for the production and commercialization of cocoa have been developed in the Colombian territory and therefore in highly productive sectors such as Santander and Arauca, although strategies have been developed for its commercialization, in some municipalities of these departments, it is not enough to cover a representative national and international market In the present investigation, a study on the implementation of productive and commercial strategies of cocoa in the village of La Pica and La Granja farm of the municipality of Arauquita in the department of Arauca is proposed, since the trade of products harvested in the region has High quality standards have been segmented into a local and regional trade, considering that its production, as well as its commercialization, can have a greater national and export scope.
