Abstract

El concepto de cadena agroalimentaria se refiere a distintas actividades que se desarrollan dentro de una empresa que dan valor al producto final. El precio del producto final supera el valor de las diferentes actividades. Se consideró pertinente hacer un análisis sobre las principales cadenas productivas del estado de Zacatecas, pensando en el dinamismo y otros factores que pueden modificar la importancia de estas cadenas. En el aspecto metodológico se hizo una jerarquización de las variables de acuerdo a criterios ponderados en cadenas agropecuarias para identificar cuál de estas son estratégicas para Zacatecas. Este estudio consideró solamente dos dimensiones: la importancia socioeconómica y la competitividad. El posicionamiento de las cadenas agrícolas indicó que los forrajes es la cadena agrícola de mayor importancia, seguida por el frijol, maíz grano, tomate rojo (jitomate), nopalitos, chile y alfalfa, entre otras. Bovinos carne, bovinos leche y caprinos fueron las cadenas pecuarias más relevantes. Se discuten algunas estrategias para mejorar las cadenas de valor así como políticas públicas para modificar el comportamiento de las cadenas agropecuarias......The concept of food chain refers to the various activities developed within a company that adds value to the final product. The final product price exceeds the value of different activities. It was considered pertinent to perform an analysis in the main production chains of the state of Zacatecas, thinking in the dynamism and other factors that may modify the importance of these chains. In the methodological aspect, a variable ranking was done based on weighted criteria of the different agricultural and livestock production chains to identify which ones are strategic to the State. This study considered only two dimensions: the socioeconomic importance and the competitiveness. The positioning of the agricultural chains showed that forages are the most important agricultural chain followed by beans, corn, beans, fresh tomatoes, cactus, chili and alfalfa, among others. Beef cattle, dairy cattle, and goats were the most important livestock production chains. Some strategies for improving value chains are discussed as well as public policies for modifying the behavior of both agricultural and livestock production chains.
