Main Article Content
Abstract
To incentivize the extensive application of technologies that propitiate increments in the coffee yields, Units of Interface of Link-Investigation-Production (UIVIP) were established, in the Coffee Enterprise Carlos Manuel de Céspedes, municipality Tercer Frente, Santiago de Cuba province; in those that an appropriate interaction was promoted for the innovation and the sustainable development of the caficultura. Diverse training activities and technical attendance, framed in the application of the Agrarian Extension System were carried out and with it was achieved it a better linking, motivation and understanding for the producers in the adoption of technologies. The study was carried out in the UIVIP Comecará the one that has 589.44 ha; prevailing the Coffea canephora P. and 270 producers for an average of 2.16 producers for hectares. With this experience the yields were increased: for the Coffea arabica L. 0.10 t/ha like average in the five entities regarding the initial period and in the Coffea canephora P. 0.15 t /ha. This work facilitated the establishment of five demonstrative parcels with yields averages of 0.21 t/ha with relationship to the harvest bases (2007-2008), four reference areas, with yields from 0.2 t/ha until the 0.31 t/ha for the coffee Arábico, and for the Robusta between 0.35 t/ha and 0.51 t/ ha it was also achieved that four properties reached the condition of sustainable in those which the increment for the case of the coffee arábico was in 0.05 t/ha with relationship a period bases (2007-2008); and for the Robusta ascended to 0.22 t/ha.
