Resumen
Los huertos familiares constituyen un medio de subsistencia escasamente implementado en Latinoamérica, considerado importante para el abastecimiento de alimentos del núcleo familiar así como también para la reserva de alimentos, mejora en la nutrición, ahorro de dinero en la compra de alimentos y mejoramiento de la ecología ambiental, que sumado a sus múltiples beneficios, permite la generación de nuevos ingresos económicos, así como el fortalecimiento de las relaciones familiares y de las comunidades del sector rural. Bajo este contexto, el presente trabajo tiene como propósito analizar la incidencia de los huertos familiares en la independencia alimentaria de las parroquias rurales de la ciudad de Guayaquil. Para ello, se desarrolló una investigación cualitativa con énfasis bibliográfico en una temporalidad no mayor a cinco años. Los resultados indican que es posible replicar y expandir este modelo de agricultura sustentable a las familias de este sector rural con el apoyo de los entidades gubernamentales. Se concluye que esta actividad productiva y recreativa, generaría acceso y abastecimiento de alimentos frescos y sanos generando mejora en la nutrición humana, diversificación productiva y por ende beneficios de índole social, económico y ambiental.

Under this context, the present work aims to analyze the incidence of family gardens in the food independence of rural parishes in the city of Guayaquil. To do this, a qualitative research with bibliographic emphasis was developed in a period of no more than five years.

It is concluded that this productive and recreational activity would generate access and supply of fresh and healthy food, generating improvement in human nutrition, productive diversification and therefore benefits of a social, economic and environmental nature.
