Abstract
El presente estudio identifica las barreras que presentan los productores de tilapia roja registrados en el municipio de Monterrey, Casanare, respecto a la percepción para la implementación del sistema BIOFLOC, sistema caracterizado por presentar un mejor control de producción, presentado reducciones significativas de contaminación. La investigación se realizó con un enfoque cuantitativo, por medio de encuestas físicas a 34 de los 38 productores de tilapia roja registrados en el municipio durante un seminario de este gremio. Se examinaron variables como el conocimiento técnico del sistema BIOFLOC, el volumen de producción, el tipo de apoyo necesario, y la percepción general sobre la tecnología. Los resultados demuestran que los productores presentan interés en implementar este sistema, aunque existen barreras económicas y percepción de riesgo por falta de conocimiento técnico, lo cual influye en la disposición para implementarlo, sin embargo, se identificó una disposición mayor para implementar dicho sistema proporcional a la cantidad de producción anual, indicando así que el sistema resulta atractivo en medida que los beneficios económicos aumentan, por lo tanto, se realizan recomendaciones para futuras investigaciones amplíen el estudio a zonas aledañas identificando así, si existe la misma percepción por parte de otros productores y se recomienda realizar seguimiento técnico a empresas productoras que hayan implementado este sistema, demostrando los beneficios del mismo
The present study identifies the barriers faced by registered red tilapia producers in the municipality of Monterrey, Casanare, regarding their perception of the implementation of the BIOFLOC system, a system characterized by better production control and significant reductions in pollution. The research was conducted with a quantitative approach, using physical surveys administered to 34 out of the 38 registered red tilapia producers in the municipality during a seminar for this sector. Variables such as technical knowledge of the BIOFLOC system, production volume, the type of support needed, and the general perception of the technology were examined. The results show that producers are interested in implementing this system, although there are economic barriers and a perception of risk due to a lack of technical knowledge, which affects their willingness to adopt it. However, a greater willingness to implement the system was identified in proportion to the annual production volume, indicating that the system becomes more attractive as economic benefits increase. Therefore, recommendations are made for future research to expand the study to surrounding areas to determine if other producers share the same perception, and it is suggested to conduct technical follow-ups with production companies that have implemented this system to demonstrate its benefits.
