Abstract

Abstract:Ecuador's agricultural export products are diverse, some are increasing, while others have decreased their potential in recent years, hence the need to focus on the issue of agricultural export products in order to analyze the profitability of agricultural export products of coffee and cocoa from Ecuador in the period 2000 - 2018. To meet this objective, the descriptive methodology was used and the information obtained through the FAOSTAT platform was used. After conducting the analysis, it was concluded that exports of cocoa beans and green coffee products have had significant variances in recent years. Cocoa is one of the desired products in international markets, obtaining a rebound in exports in 2010, 2014, 2015 and 2016, generating greater profitability for the product. While in the case of coffee the variations are negative, since it obtains a drastic decrease in exports in 2016 and falls even more in 2018.
