“…This is because there are not a lot of works that address how does climate variability affect the six factors analyzed. In fact, there are only 11 studies that analyze the effect of climate on different parts of the cacao SAFs, and are mainly concentrated on the population ecology of insects (Capetillo-Concepción et al, 2014, Gerónimo-Cruz et al, 2020, Hernández-Lara et al, 2020 and in least amount the phenology of the cacao (Barrón- García et al, 2014), the leaf fall at different seasons (Pérez-Flores et al, 2018), the infestation of moniliasis (Torres-De La Cruz et al, 2020), the prediction of the effects of the climate change (Pérez-Sosa and Granados-Ramírez, 2020), the effect of different kinds of management over the physiology of the cacao and the microclime (Jiménez-Pérez et al, 2019) and only superficially the local perception of the cacao producers to the climate change (Larrondo-Posadas, 2017, Méndez-Sánchez et al, 2019Martínez-Salvador and Martínez-Salvador, 2020). This little quantity of works related to the effects of climate variability it´s an important limitation to this review, and the reason why this work analyzes the general resilience of the system more than the resilience to climate change.…”
