          Abstract

          El estudio se realizó en el departamento del Caquetá, municipio de Cartagena del Chairá con el objetivo de evaluar la contribución de los sistemas productivos en la generación de ingresos en familias cacaoteras. Se definieron 22 variables cualitativas y cuantitativas, que se agruparon en cinco categorías: (i) caracterización social, (ii) características de la finca, (iii) tamaño de la finca y uso del suelo, (iv) producción pecuaria, (v) producción agrícola y forestal. En torno a las cinco categorías se generaron grupos a partir de un Análisis de Correspondencia Múltiple (ACM). Finalmente, los grupos se conglomeraron en tres clúster que presentaron diferencias significativas (P < 0,05) en las variables uso del suelo e ingresos por actividades agropecuarias.Las Fincas ganaderas grandes presentaron áreas en pasturas de 109,75 ha e ingresos anuales de $15.321.250, provenientes de la actividad pecuaria. Las fincas agrícolas pequeñas tuvieron áreas en bosque de 48,78 ha, y se obtuvieron ingresos anuales de $1.170.000 derivados del bosque. Las Fincas agropecuarias medianas presentaron áreas en cultivos agrícolas de 6,89 ha, sin embargo estas fincas obtuvieron ingresos no relacionados con la producción agropecuaria de $2.052.916. Se concluye que las familias cacaoteras requieren de diferentes actividades productivas para obtener ingresos debido a que el cultivo de cacao es de subsistencia.

            The Myth of Complex Cocoa Agroforests: The Case of Ghana

            Most researchers defend cocoa agroforests as a model, which guarantees sustainable cocoa production while protecting biodiversity. However, in most countries, farmers’ strategies favour “full sun” cocoa farms, close to the concept of monoculture. Why this apparent paradox? Field surveys were conducted in 2005 and 2008 with 180 migrant and autochthon farmers in four districts of Ghana, including some measurements at the farm plot level and satellite images in a fifth district. An analytical grid shows how factors interact. Adoption of sun-loving hybrids; farmers’ negative perception of ecological services in relation to hybrids; legislation excluding smallholders from the legal timber market; recent expansion of the timber industry; and the migratory phenomenon. Most smallholders consider complex cocoa agroforests as a thing of the past. They were designed at a time when land and forests were abundant. The future of cocoa and timber may lie in ‘light commercial-oriented agroforests’ or a kind of mosaic landscape.
