Abstract
Cultural aspects that influence the associative work of agricultural production chains in the Mantaro Valley of Peru
Highlights
Given the increasing boom of institutionalist views of local and regional development (Rodríguez-Pose, 2013; Pike, Rodríguez-Pose & Tomaney, 2016), local and regional development policies in Latin America have increasingly placed emphasis on variables such as governance and the construction of public-private collaboration networks, as key factors to explain why some regions have better economic performance than others do (Montero & Chapple, 2018)
Percentages of average variance extracted (AVE) greater than 50% are obtained for all scales (Vicente-Ramos et al, 2020)
The collectivism of agricultural producers in the Mantaro Valley is significantly related to the associative work of agricultural production chains, 75% of agricultural producers have a positive attitude towards production chains, 90% are willing to participate in work meetings, 93% consider teamwork training important and 90% consider that it is good to work together with their neighbors
Summary
Given the increasing boom of institutionalist views of local and regional development (Rodríguez-Pose, 2013; Pike, Rodríguez-Pose & Tomaney, 2016), local and regional development policies in Latin America have increasingly placed emphasis on variables such as governance and the construction of public-private collaboration networks, as key factors to explain why some regions have better economic performance than others do (Montero & Chapple, 2018). In the vast majority of cases they do not have the necessary capabilities to face the challenge of growing individually in the domestic market. Much less, they are able to export competitively. The Junín Region is located in the central zone of the Peruvian Andes, with a total area of 44197 km, which represents 3.4% of the national territory. It covers two natural regions, the sierra, with 20821 km, where the Mantaro Valley, Bombón Plateau and Junín Lake (or Chinchaycocha) are located; and the eyebrow area of jungle and jungle, with 23376 km, where the valleys of Chanchamayo, Ene, Perené and Tambo are located
