Abstract
The work was developed during September of 2014 to March of 2016 period with the objective of evaluating the impact of the affectations for coffee berry borer in the primary links (harvests and benefit) of the coffee productive chain in four coffee areas of the Tercer Frente municipality, Santiago de Cuba province. The evaluations were carried out following the methodology of Rodríguez and col. (2010). the evaluations of the behavior of the affected percentage of coffee cherry were carried out in the pulping center Filé, coming from the Basic Unit of Cooperative Production 14 of June located in The Mandarin area, by means of the quarter method, during the reception, where they took three samples of 12.88 kg of coffee cherry for each departure every 15 days, to those that were determined the percentage of coffee affected by coffee berry borer that contained the mass of coffee cherry when arriving to the reception. The biggest infestation indexes were observed in the areas of Arroyón and San Lorenzo with 40 % and 35 %, respectively, continued by La Tabla and The Mandarin. The coffee cherry bought by the center of benefit to beginning of the harvest was between 45.7 % and 66.9 % of second quality and among 11.8 % and 34.3 % outside of norm. A positive and significant correlation was determined between the infestation index and the bought coffee of second quality and outside of norm what represented an economic loss for the producing of 9.0 % and 55.5 % for this concept.
