Resumen
El maíz es un bien fundamental en la dieta local y un componente clave de la seguridad alimentaria en la región. Además, la producción de maíz es una fuente significativa de ingresos para los pequeños y medianos productores en el Cantón Ventanas, sin embargo, para otros, la cosecha de maíz solamente logra solventar la provisión de alimentos para sus familias. Dicho esto, el objetivo general del presente trabajo de integración curricular busca analizar la relación entre la producción de maíz y el desarrollo socioeconómico en el Cantón Ventanas, durante el periodo 2018-2022. Para lo cual, se estableció una investigación cuantitativa y cualitativa de diseño documental y de campo, con la intención de recopilar la mayor información posible sobre el desarrollo socioeconómico y la producción de maíz en Ventanas, así también, se realizaron encuestas para conocer la percepción de los actores del sector maicero sobre las limitaciones y perspectivas del sector. Como resultado se obtuvo que alrededor del 34% de los productores encuestados utilizan esta opción como forma de financiamiento, mientras que, el 46% de productores de maíz reciben entre $1.000 y $1.900 dólares mensuales por la venta de las cosechas.
