Políticas estatales del sector arrocero en Colombia, basada en las experiencias de Brasil

Abstract

In this paper we analyzed the shortcomings that are presented in the state policies in the rice sector in Colombia that affect the production of the same, and were compared with the experiences of Brazil for its dependence in the sector, in order to generate a possible proposal of improvement. To understand these problems, the most influential variables were identified, such as the damage caused by the imminent climate change, the investment in technology and the public policies that support the rice sector, which, with good management, can generate an improvement in the productivity. The results show that Brazil is strong in production, due to state support and non-governmental entities, which makes it a good competitor, and therefore allows identifying the practices necessary to optimize rice cultivation in the country, so that processes are more efficient both nationally and international.
