Análisis de la competitividad del sector arrocero en Colombia y su comercialización internacional en el acuerdo de la alianza del pacífico.

Abstract

Colombia is currently showing low capacity to reach other markets due to the lack of competitiveness, and the low technical and financial support that the subsector has to correct it. The objective of this research is to analyze the obstacles that Colombian economic activity has in its process of internationalization towards countries of the Pacific Alliance from 2013 to 2017. To reach this objective, quantitative data is collected about the production and productivity of rice in Colombia, as well as the behavior of the subsector's trade balance in the Pacific Alliance to later analyze the growth of said factors, and the reason for the low competitiveness of international trade in said subsector is explained, In addition, the obstacles to commercial internationalization of the product. It is concluded that the rice sub-sector is not competitive within the framework of the Pacific alliance because it has shortcomings in its costs, technification and financial support, hence the productivity that has not allowed it to reach other markets of the alliance.
