Main Article Content
Abstract
The work was carried out in two UBPC (Basic Unit of Cooperative Production), two CPA (Cooperative of Agricultural Production), eight CCS (Cooperative of Credits and Services), two GIM (Military Integral Farm) belonging to the Agricultureforest Enterprise III Frente located in Tercer Frente municipality, Santiago de Cuba province and a GIM, belonging to the Agriculture-forest Bartolomé Masó Enterprise located in Bartolomé Masó municipality of the Granma province, in which an appropriate interaction was promoted for the innovation among the actors interested in the sustainable development of the coffee-culture. These actions were carried out by means of the advice, training and technical assistance, framed in the System of Agrarian Extension application and with it was achieved it a better linking, motivation and understanding of the producers in the adoption of technological options. As a result of the appropriate technologies implementation was achieved a high motivation level, understanding and cooperation among the producers that it allowed to rescue the implementation with quality, of some traditional activities that should be made and they were not made in time and forms, such as: clean, shade regulation and it prunes of the coffee. The correct employment of the technologies also allowed the production of 145 995 postures of coffee what facilitated the seeding of 29.09 ha of coffee as well as the increment of the yields in reference areas until 0.46 t/ha like average; what implies an increment of 70 % of the yields with regard to the initial harvest.
