| description | The aim of this paper is to develop a model of sustainable added value chain (SAVC).
The model i) considers consumers expectations, ii) analyses the determinant producers´
factors to perform the SAVC and iii) ranks the agricultural subsectors according the SAVC.
The value chain methodology was used to assess the sustainability of the agricultural
value chain and develop the model. The model was tested in the Dominican Republic’s
agricultural value chain. The results showed i) producers´ access to SAVC depends on the
subsector, location and resources, ii) organic banana and avocado are the subsectors with
the best potential SAVC while sweet potatoes and rice have the lowest potential and iii)
producers are in an early stage to adopt the consumers´ expectations endangering SAVC.
Using mixed methods to investigate the SAVC this paper provides an approach that reflects
the complex and iterative nature of a real supply chains and can be used by researchers,
policymakers and practitioners to better understand and describe decision making and to
develop informed policies and interventions beyond SAVC. This research challenges the
innate complexity of local supply chains and the presence of barriers for SAVC. |

Este artículo tiene por objeto el desarrollo de un modelo de cadena de valor agraria sostenible (CVS). El modelo tiene en cuenta, i) la demanda de los consumidores, ii) los factores determinantes para que los productores accedan a la CVS y iii) ordena los sectores en la CVS. En el desarrollo se empleó la metodología de la cadena de valor y el modelo fue validado en la cadena de valor agraria de la República Dominicana. Los resultados muestran que, i) el acceso a la CVS por los productores dominicanos depende del sector, la localización y los medios disponibles, ii) sectores como el plátano orgánico y el aguacate están mejor posicionados en la CVS y los sectores del arroz y la batata están peor situados y iii) los productores consideran poco la demanda de los consumidores alejándose de la CVS. Este trabajo ayudará a investigadores, políticos y gestores en la toma de decisiones para alcanzar la CVS. Fil: Gómez-Luciano, Cristino Alberto.
