OROPESA CASANOVA, Katerine et al. Experiences of the Local Agricultural Innovation System to face productive challenges in the Perico municipality. Pastos y Forrajes [online]. 2019, vol.42, n.2, pp. 171-180. ISSN 2078-8452.

The objective of the work was to show how the Local Agricultural Innovation System (SIAL, for its initials in Spanish) in the Perico municipality, Matanzas province, Cuba, was able to solve productive challenges from the moment they were detected in the Management Multi-Actor Platform (MMP), which started with the problem of low yield in the production of Ipomoea batatas (sweet potato) in the productive zone La Angelina. For such purpose different scientific methods and research techniques were used, such as: context diagnosis, surveys, soil sampling, among others. In addition, the results that were reached in the territory with the implementation of this type of approach in the different dimensions, were systematized; which allowed to perform several learning cycles and, in turn, have a plan of measures to increase sweet potato yields and improve the soil as fundamental and irreplaceable resource, capable of supporting crops and life in general.

Palabras clave : management; Ipomoea batatas; yield; soil.
