Actualmente existen tendencias hacia el consumo de alimentos saludables, con propiedades nutricionales, orgánicas y en presentaciones deshidratadas. El Perú se ubica dentro de los países que producen este tipo de alimentos, debido a su biodiversidad y a la promoción de la marca Perú, la cual logró crear la marca sectorial Superfoods. Dentro de estos superalimentos, se encuentra el Aguaymanto Deshidratado, el cual cuenta con mayor producción en la región Huánuco. Ante ello, se evidencia las oportunidades de potenciar esta oferta exportable. Es por ello, que el Gobierno crea el programa Sierra y Selva Exportadora, el cual busca impulsar la actividad económica en zonas rurales, disminuyendo la pobreza y logrando el acceso a los productores a mercados competitivos y sostenibles. El objetivo del presente estudio es determinar la relación del programa y el desempeño exportador de los productores asociados de Aguaymanto Orgánico Deshidratado de la región Huánuco, considerando las Líneas de Apoyo Informativo, Operativo y en Desarrollo Económico que brinda SSE. El enfoque utilizado para la investigación es cualitativo, realizando 20 entrevistas a productores y expertos del sector. Con relación a los resultados, se comprobó una relación parcialmente positiva entre el programa y el desempeño exportador de los productores asociados entre los años 2016-2020. En adición a ello, se determinó la relación de las subcategorías i) Resultados Económicos, ii) Estrategias de Exportación iii) Resultados Genéricos con el desempeño exportador. / Nowadays there are trends towards the consumption of healthy foods, with nutritional properties, organic and in dehydrated presentations. Peru is located within the countries that produce this type of food, due to its biodiversity and the promotion of the Peru brand, which managed to create the Superfoods sector brand. Within these superfoods, is the Dehydrated Aguaymanto, which has the highest production in the Huánuco region. Given this, the opportunities to enhance this exportable supply are evident. For this reason, the Government created the Sierra y Selva Exportadora program, which seeks to boost economic activity in rural areas, reducing poverty and giving producers access to competitive and sustainable markets. The objective of this study is to determine the relationship between the program and the export performance of associated producers of Organic Dehydrated Aguaymanto in the Huánuco region, considering the Informative, Operational and Economic Development Support Lines provided by the SSE. The approach used for the research is qualitative, conducting 20 interviews with producers and experts in the sector. Regarding the results, a partially positive relationship was found between the program and the export performance of the associated producers between the years 2016-2020. In addition to this, the relationship of the subcategories i) Economic Results, ii) Export Strategies iii) Generic Results with export performance was determined. / Tesis

The New Zealand Wool Industry (NZWI) contributes over a billion dollars a year to NZ gross output. However, this industry is at a crossroads and the incumbent practitioners are looking for ways to increase the value of the New Zealand wool clip. The value of the industry to the economy is directly related to the price which buyers are prepared to pay for wool, primarily as a result of the marketing approaches used, physical parameters of wool as well as intra and inter-fibre competition. The inflation adjusted price has steadily decreased over recent years and understanding of its dynamics is a fundamental problem for the stakeholders. Among the stakeholders, buyers / exporters, heavily involved in the process of price formation currently face a real time problem of sourcing strong wool from two parallel but different marketing systems operated simultaneously – auction and direct supply. The underlying mathematics which governs the decision making of buyers on the price dynamics in these sourcing options is poorly understood. This study developed system models for price formation in both auction and direct supply sourcing and an associated optimization model for the buyer / exporter of the New Zealand wool clip. All three of these models were original and none appear to have been described previously. It is hoped that these three models will be of quite general utility and also be useful therefore for other agricultural commodities that are traded simultaneously via auction and direct supply. The average price for a given wool type, which is the output from this new modelling exercise is precisely what is required as input data for solving the minimization problem in wool blending models.
