    Abstract/Description
    The actual socioeconomic impact of the cassava natural drying project on the Atlantic Coast of Colombia is discussed with regard to increasing income of farmers and their families who live in the project's area of influence. Limitations in each phase of development of the project (pilot phase, 1st phase of expansion, consolidation phase, 2nd phase of expansion) are indicated. External circumstances in which the project has been carried out are also described, along with factors related to the organization of the project in small-farmer cooperatives and cassava production factors at the farm level. Ways in which this impact can be further improved are also discussed. The organization of these drying projects has proved to be an important mechanism for achieving a broader socioeconomic impact. Members of these organizations are the major beneficiaries of the project (high incomes through the sale of fresh cassava, participation in profits, employment in cassava drying). Farmers indirectly linked to the plants have been benefitted through the sale of cassava and the stimulus to production, which in turn generates a demand for employment. (CIAT)
     
    Se discute el impacto socioeconomico actual del proyecto de secamiento natural de la yuca en la Costa Atlantica de Colombia en relacion con el incremento de los ingresos de los agricultores y sus familias que viven en el area de influencia del proyecto. Se indican las limitaciones en cada fase de desarrollo del proyecto (fase piloto, primera fase de expansion, fase de consolidacion, segunda fase de expansion). Tambien se describen las circunstancias externas en las que se ha llevado a cabo el proyecto, los factores relacionados con la organizacion del proyecto en cooperativas de pequenos agricultores y los factores de produccion de yuca a nivel de fina. Tambien se discuten maneras de incrementar aun mas el impacto. La organizacion de estos proyectos de secado ha mostrado ser un mecanismo importante para lograr un impacto socioeconomico amplio. Los socios de estas organizaciones son los mayores beneficiarios del proyecto (altos ingresos por concepto de venta de yuca fresca, participacion en las ganancias generadas y empleo en el secado de la yuca). Los agricultores indirectamente vinculados con las plantas se han beneficiado a traves de la venta de la yuca y el estimulo a la produccion, que a su vez genera una demanda de empleo. (CIAT)
