La búsqueda activa de soluciones para los problemas de los sistemas agrícolas: una visión desde análisis de decisiones

Abstract

Introduction / objective: Nowadays society demands from agricultural systems not only the provision of goods for the market but also environmental and social services. This transformation is a challenge due to the unpredictability of executing actions in a complex system with no certainty that it will lead to the desired outcome. This perspective paper describes the application of Decision Analysis (DA) for such uncertain scenarios of decision-making in agricultural systems. Methodology: This paper describes a general protocol for the implementation of DA, proposes a temporal-spatial framework for the application of DA in agricultural systems using concepts of Decision Theory and strategic planning, and introduces a case study for describing how this framework can be applied to agricultural innovation systems. Results: Problems in agricultural systems can be outlined as decision analysis models of specific spatial-temporal scale (planning horizons). This framework has potential for the application of DA in the planning efforts of the Colombian National Agricultural Innovation System, but especially in the implementation of Regional Innovation Systems. Conclusions: We provided an extended DA framework aimed to constitute a sound basis for finding solutions in the complex setting of agricultural systems, for planning actions of science, technology and innovation and for supporting the decision making process of sustainability transformation of agricultural systems.

Territorios Hidrosociales: una metodología para promover la seguridad hídrica ante el cambio climático a través de la gobernanza, visión y acción participativa

“…Seguidamente, se diseñarán los cuestionarios de entrevistas semiestructuradas (fase cualitativa), el muestreo espera incluir el 10 % de la población del territorio, esta información alimentará un modelo causal probabilístico del ISH, para tal fin, se seguirán las recomendaciones para aplicar modelos de decisiones a problemas del sector agrícola (Burbano-Figueroa et al, 2022;Whitney et al, 2023). Los datos resultantes de la simulación serán revisados con actores claves de la comunidad (codiseño del índice).…”
