Este trabajo se realizó con el objetivo de tipificar las fincas cacaoteras en la subcuenca media del río Huayabamba, distrito de Huicungo (San Martín, Perú). Se trabajó con la Cooperativa Agraria Cacaotera ACOPAGRO con una población de 332 productores y de la que se tomó una muestra (n=77) para hacer una encuesta que consideró 6 componentes (familiar, recursos naturales, actividad agrícola, económico, tecnológico y de gestión, social). Se encontró que las fincas cacaoteras están agrupadas en tres tipos, significativamente diferenciados entre sí. El grupo I fue el mayoritario (68% de las fincas), se caracteriza por desarrollar otras actividades paralelas al cultivo del cacao, tiene un sistema de producción convencional, con plantaciones policlonales y un rendimiento promedio de 963.46 kg.ha-1, cifra que supera la media regional y nacional. El grupo II (13 % de fin...
