Esta investigación, denominada "Prácticas comerciales hacia la sostenibilidad en productores agropecuarios de Vergara, Cundinamarca", busca examinar las prácticas de comercio sustentables de los productores agropecuarios, reconociendo elementos que promueven o impiden su implementación, y valorando su efecto en la sostenibilidad económica, ambiental y social. Se empleó una metodología mixta (cualitativa y cuantitativa) para recolectar información mediante encuestas piloto y relatos entregados a 20 productores escogidos a través de muestreo no probabilístico. Las herramientas facilitaron la recopilación de datos acerca de prácticas sustentables, vías de venta y obstáculos vistos. Los datos fueron tratados a través del programa Jamovi para realizar análisis descriptivo y correlativo. Las prácticas sostenibles más habituales fueron la utilización de abonos orgánicos (45%) y la preservación de fuentes de agua (20%). Los productores con más trayectoria (11-20 años) prefieren los mercados regionales, en cambio, los más nuevos eligen las ventas directas. No obstante, un 65% de los participantes en la encuesta manifestó descontento con los ingresos logrados, lo que evidencia retos económicos. Además, los intermediarios siguen desempeñando un rol significativo en la determinación de precios. Pese a que se implementan medidas sustentables que incrementan la calidad del medio ambiente, aún existen retos económicos que ponen en riesgo la sostenibilidad global. La necesidad de intermediarios restringe la competitividad de los productores, mientras que la escasa utilización de tecnología y comercio electrónico limita las posibilidades de mercado
This research, called "Business practices towards sustainability in agricultural producers in Vergara, Cundinamarca", seeks to examine the sustainable business practices of agricultural producers, recognizing elements that promote or impede their implementation, and assessing their effect on economic, environmental and social sustainability. A mixed methodology (qualitative and quantitative) was used to collect information through pilot surveys and reports delivered to 20 producers chosen through non-probabilistic sampling. The tools facilitated the collection of data about sustainable practices, sales channels and obstacles seen. The data were processed through the Jamovi program to perform descriptive and correlative analysis. The most common sustainable practices were the use of organic fertilizers (45%) and the preservation of water sources (20%). The most experienced producers (11-20 years) prefer regional markets, while the newest ones choose direct sales. However, 65% of survey participants expressed dissatisfaction with the income achieved, which highlights economic challenges. In addition, intermediaries continue to play a significant role in determining prices. Despite the implementation of sustainable measures that increase environmental quality, economic challenges remain that jeopardize global sustainability. The need for intermediaries restricts the competitiveness of producers, while the limited use of technology and e-commerce limits market opportunities
