The agricultural production of Ecuador represents one of its economic columns, showing productive items that make it be considered among the first producers worldwide, such as cocoa, coffee, bananas and others such as rice makes it think about their self-supply, but needs a greater presence of science and technology to eliminate the restrictive factors that limit it and promote innovation as a resource for change, a reason that led to consider the objective of this research, to analyze from the potentialities of the Ecuadorian agro-productive sector, the relevance of implementing open innovation to increase its productive management, with greater efficiency and effectiveness in the management of resources. The analysis was framed in the period 2011-2015 and methods of the theoretical and practical order were employed and within the latter, the Structured Interview, the non-participant observation and the Documentary Analysis. As a main result, it is possible to show that even though said sector has natural potentials for the increase of its production levels, it does not have incentives, neither infrastructures for the management of science and technology, nor, a human capital that assures it the development of innovation as a process and much less, the closed, requiring awareness, guidance and training to stimulate the sector, the development of open innovation as a facilitator of increased production and strengthening the national and family economy.
