Resumen
El presente trabajo, analiza la comercialización de Maíz (Zea mays L.) en el
recinto Mina de Piedra, cantón Ventanas, provincia de Los Ríos, con el
objetivo de plantear mecanismos que contribuyan a mejorar las condiciones
de esta actividad empresarial para el pequeño agricultor. Para este análisis,
se ocuparon encuestas descriptivas respondidas por agricultores del recinto,
en un muestreo no probabilístico por juicio de expertos, cuya técnica de
recolección de datos es de tipo primaria (fuente directa). Los datos obtenidos
se procesaron e interpretaron con el cálculo de números índice (porcentaje)
y gráficos circulares. Al final del trabajo, se obtuvo como resultados que los
agricultores de la zona experimentan altos costos de producción y bajas
compensaciones económicas en comparación a los datos oficiales
publicados por el Ministerio de Agricultura.
