“…All these are barriers that affect the competitiveness of agrotourism. The authors of [47][48][49] point out that agricultural activity has experienced a significant reduction in investment and that this is related to the deficient infrastructure for basic services such as electricity, healthy water supply and crop irrigation, low access to technological communication services, and inadequate and in some cases no public aid.…”

“…In spite of this, it can be seen that the farm has the necessary conditions for the development of agrotourism. It is necessary to pay attention to the difficulties and weaknesses detected, as suggested by the authors of [48][49][50].…”

“…In recent years, agricultural activity has experienced a decrease and a notable reduction in investment. This is due to several aspects that occur in rural areas, such as the lack of adequate jobs, low wages, the precariousness of work in the agricultural sphere, the poor infrastructure for the provision of basic services such as electricity, healthy water supply for irrigating crops, low access to technological communication services, and inadequate and in some cases no public aid [48][49][50].…”

Rural Agrotourism Development Strategies in Less Favored Areas: The Case of Hacienda Guachinango de Trinidad

The objective of the work was to assess and identify potential perspectives for the development of agrotourism activity in the Hacienda Guachinango del Valle de los Ingenios in the Trinidad municipality, so that the methodology applied and the results achieved can serve as a reference for application in other similar contexts in the country and in the Central American area. For this, the analysis and synthesis of spatial elements, discussion groups, the interpretation of descriptive statistics, and the study of the natural and social environment were applied. The diagnosis of resources was carried out in this work to determine the degree of competitiveness and attraction of the agrotourism product, and it was possible to establish the most convenient strategies to follow, considering the real possibilities of prospective development of the place studied. It was concluded that the proposal to develop agrotourism in Hacienda Guachinango constitutes a viable option to design and introduce a strategy for growth and socioeconomic reactivation based on the use of the natural, historical, cultural, and social potentialities of the small families dedicated to agricultural work.

“…Ecuador is divided into four natural regions: the Pacific Coast (Coast) located to the west, the Andean mountain range (Inter‐Andean), the Amazon rain forest (Amazon) to the east, and the Galapagos Islands (Ilbay‐Yupa et al., 2021) (Figure 1). Close to 4% of the Ecuadorian landmass is considered arable land and the agricultural sector represents ∼9% of the GDP and ∼55% of the total exports (Juca et al., 2021; World Bank, 2021). Moreover, the agricultural sector is the major source of jobs in the country employing ∼30% of the economically active population (Juca et al., 2021).…”

Mapping Potential Population‐Level Pesticide Exposures in Ecuador Using a Modular and Scalable Geospatial Strategy

et al. 2023

Human populations and ecosystems are extensively exposed to pesticides. Most nations lack the capacity to control pesticide contamination and have limited availability of pesticide use information. Ecuador is a country with intense pesticide use with high exposure risks to humans and the environment, although relative or combined risks are not well understood. Here, we analyzed the distribution of application rates in Ecuador and identified regions of concern because of high potential exposure. We used a geospatial analysis to identify grid cells (∼8 km × 8 km) where the highest pesticide application rates and density of human populations overlap. Furthermore, we identified other regions of concern based on the number of amphibian species as an indicator of ecosystem integrity and the location of natural protected areas. We found that 28% of Ecuador's population dwelled in areas with high pesticide application rate. We identified an area of ∼512 km2 in the Amazon region where high application rates, large human settlements, and a high number of amphibian species overlapped. Additionally, we distinguished clusters of pesticide application rates and human populations that intersected with natural protected areas. Ecuador exemplifies how pesticides are disproportionately applied in areas with the potential to affect human health and ecosystems' integrity. Global estimates of population dwelling, pesticide application rates, and environmental factors are key in prioritizing locations to conduct further exposure assessments. The modular and scalable nature of the geospatial tools we developed can be expanded and adapted to other regions of the world where data on pesticide use are limited.

“…A nivel mundial, cada país buscará reactivar la economía, Ecuador por su parte se enfocaría a reactivar la producción para satisfacer necesidades alimentarias, lo que demandaría al sector productivo mejorar sus procesos y atención en el sector acuícola y agrícola, generando un cambio de visión económica productiva, haciendo extensiva su actividad de productor, continuando con la transformación de sus productos considerándolos como materia prima, mediante la vinculación de valor agregado a su producción, que de acuerdo a Chuncho et al (2021) conside-ran que el crecimiento agrícola no sólo debe ser el producir, sino que es necesario la industrialización lo que generaría el desarrollo del país.…”

El resultado de esta pandemia afecto a una parte importante de la población y las medidas de restricción para evitar el contagio y limitar la propagación, dio como resultado que la mayor parte de la población permaneciera la mayor parte del tiempo aislada en los hogares, trayendo como consecuencia un aumento del desempleo, del poder adquisitivo y por ende de la comercialización de productos , lo que origino la quiebra de muchísimas pequeñas empresas y el cierre parcial de algunas medianas e incluso grandes empresas.
