Abstract

In this work, an accompaniment was carried out through technical assistance to small producers of blackberry and tomato in the villages of Miraflores, La cuchilla, Planadas, in the municipality of Piedecuesta Santander. Blackberry and tomato crops are managed by small and medium producers, who take out their products and sell them in the local market and some in the national market. In the villages of Miraflores, La cuchilla and planadas, 9 farmers were accompanied where they sought to reduce the shortcomings and critical points in the areas of fertilization, pests and diseases, to achieve this, a methodological study of a descriptive type was implemented in the first instance -qualitative, tools were also used to collect information and a large number of variables, such as: interview, personal experience, life stories, observations, images, sounds, through field visits, field schools and a survey obtaining as a result weaknesses of the farmers. The survey was very useful to guide the activities to be carried out since farmers do not carry out fertilization according to the needs of the crop, so the training plan focused on instructing farmers on the importance of fertilizing, the survey also revealed difficulties in the phytosanitary part of the crops, these pathogens found in the area are very aggressive and
