CHAVEZ CRUZ, Gonzalo Junior; OLAYA CUM, Ronny Leonardo  and  MAZA INIGUEZ, José Vicente. Cost of production of clonal cacao ccn-51 in the Parish Bellamaria, Ecuador. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2018, vol.10, n.4, pp. 179-185.  Epub Sep 02, 2018. ISSN 2218-3620.

A new model for the calculation of production costs of Clonal CCN-51 cocoa is presented, through field research in Bellamaria Parish of Santa Rosa Canton of the Province of El Oro. This procedure allows students and small farmers to understand in a simple and precise way the costs incurred through the identification of the 4 activities developed in this production that are clearly defined: preparation and nutrition of the soil, maintenance of plantations and harvest, in each one of them are carried out sub-activities that have been registered and costed to obtain the total cost per hectare, which have been separated by periods allowing knowing the investment per year until reaching the first 5 years, in this way to know the sustainability of this production in the different haciendas of this locality that allow sustained economic growth for the inhabitants of the sector.

Keywords : Cost; CCN-51; preparation; nutrition; maintenance.
