| description | This study analyzes there lative
importance of the factors that influence the
decision to produce for foreign markets
in the Chilean agricultural sector. Using
data obtained from personal interviews with
368 farmers, the market/production decision
was estimated using a multinomial logit model.
Three market/production alternatives were
analyzed: production aimed for the external
market, production for the internal market
but with expectations of being exported, and
production targeted only for the internal market.
Marginal effects, odds ratios and predicted
probabilities were used to identify the relevance
of each variable. The results showed that a
producer that is male, with a higher educational
level, that does not own the land, but rents it,
whose farm has irrigation and is located in an
area that has a high concentration of exporting
producers, will have a high probability of
producing exportables. However, the factor that
has the highest impact on producing for the
external market is the geographic concentration
of exporting producers, that is, an export
spillover effect. Indeed, when the concentration
change from 0 to its maximum (0.26), the odds
of producing exportables rather than producing
traditional products increases by a factor of 70
(against a factor of 10 in the case of irrigation). |

Este estudio analiza la importancia relativa de los factores que influyen en la decisión de producir para el mercado externo en el sector agrícola chileno. Utilizando datos obtenidos de entrevistas personales aplicadas a 368 agricultores, la decisión de producir para el mercado externo fue estimada con un modelo logístico multinomial. Tres alternativas de producción/mercado fueron analizadas: producción para el mercado externo, producción para el mercado interno pero con expectativas de llegar a exportar y producción enfocada solo al mercado interno. Efectos marginales, razones de posibilidades y probabilidades predichas fueron utilizadas para identificar la relevancia de cada variable. Los resultados muestran que un productor hombre, con un alto nivel educacional, que arrienda la tierra, y cuyo predio tiene riego y está localizado en una zona con una alta concentración de productores de exportables, tendrá altas probabilidades de producir para el mercado externo. Sin embargo, el factor que tiene el mayor impacto en la decisión de producir exportables es la concentración geográfica de los productores de exportables, es decir, hay un fuerte efecto de la difusión de la actividad exportadora. Por cierto, cuando esta concentración cambia de 0 a su valor máximo (0,26), las posibilidades de producir exportables en vez de producir tradicionales aumenta en un factor de 70 (contra un factor de 10 para el caso del riego).
