Resumen

Contextualización: La adopción y ampliación del uso de bioinsumos parece ser una de las formas de obtener cultivos y producciones más ecológicas. Por lo tanto, es fundamental comprender las motivaciones y barreras que llevan a los productores rurales a adoptar (o no) y ampliar (o no) el uso de bioinsumos.

Objetivo: Los objetivos de este estudio pretenden determinar: perfil de los productores rurales de granos en el Cerrado brasileño que contribuye para la adopción o no adopción de bioinsumos en sus propiedades; qué fuentes utilizan los productores rurales para aprender sobre tecnología de bioinsumos; y barreras o limitaciones impiden la adopción o mayor uso de bioinsumos por parte de los productores de granos en el Cerrado brasileño.

Método: Estudio recolectó datos de 122 agricultores que respondieron preguntas cerradas en una escala Likert de 5 puntos relacionadas con el perfil, limitaciones y motivaciones en relación al tema de bioinsumos. Los datos recolectados fueron analizados mediante estadística descriptiva, gráficos y regresión logística binomial (Logit), prueba de Mann-Whitney y prueba de chi-cuadrado.

Resultados: Según los datos presentados, existe evidencia de que los agricultores no-familiares pueden ser el público más adecuado para la adopción y expansión de los bioinsumos; además, se informó y mantuvo actualizado a los productores rurales que optaron por adoptar el uso de bioinsumos en sus propiedades a través de eventos, cursos de capacitación, charlas, instituciones educativas y de investigación y organizaciones de agricultura regenerativa; por otro lado, existe una falta de comprensión de cómo se debe llevar a cabo la adopción y el uso continuo de estos productos.

Conclusiones: Las principales conclusiones muestran que el agricultor no-familiar es el principal consumidor de bioinsumos en las condiciones estudiadas y que una asistencia técnica rural eficiente puede promover la adopción y mayor uso de bioinsumos.

Palabras clave: agricultura regenerativa; bioeconomía; motivaciones; bioinsumos
