Abstract

Resumen: En este artículo se analiza la política de transferencia tecnológica del sector agropecuario colombiano. Con este propósito se escogieron del Censo Nacional Agropecuario (2014) las variables: índice multidimensional de pobreza, analfabetismo y el Servicio de Asistencia Técnica Directa Rural (SATDR). Posteriormente, se calculó el índice de Moran para identificar posible dependencia espacial entre las variables y se hizo un análisis descriptivo de éstas, verificándose los supuestos de normalidad. Finalmente, con el fin de medir el grado de asociación entre las variables, se calculó el coeficiente de Kendall. Se encontró que las variables SATDR, índice de pobreza multidimensional y analfabetismo poseen dependencia espacial, así como niveles de asociación bajos entre el SATDR y las demás variables. Se concluye que las políticas de transferencia tecnológica en el sector agropecuario no están articuladas con sus objetivos y que, al tener un efecto espacial, dichas políticas se deben aplicar en todo el territorio. Abstract: This paper analyzes the technology transfer policy of the agricultural sector in Colombia. For this purpose, we chose the following variables from the National Agricultural Census (2014): multidimensional index of poverty, illiteracy and the Direct Rural Technical Assistance Service (SATDR). Subsequently, we calculated the Moran index to identify any potential spatial dependence among the variables and conducted a descriptive analysis of these, verifying the normality assumptions. Finally, in order to measure the degree of association between the variables, we computed the Kendall coefficient. We found that the SATDR variables, multidimensional poverty index, and illiteracy exhibit spatial dependence, as well as low association levels between the SATDR and the other variables. We conclude that technology transfer policies in the agricultural sector are not articulated with their objectives and, since they have a spatial effect, these policies must be applied throughout the territory.
