Abstract

Abstract:This research identifies knowledge sharing practices and tools in the Francisco Carrión Romero Cattlemen's Association, Piñas, Ecuador (2024), recognizing knowledge as a strategic asset. The study seeks to understand how it is exchanged in order to propose more effective management. It was found that the exchange is based on traditional methods, such as face-to-face meetings. Although there is an awareness of modernization, there is limited use of technology and collaborative networks, evidencing a digital divide. However, there is interest in adopting virtual platforms and social networks. Key challenges include the digital divide, lack of technological training and limited systematization of information. The association has great potential to strengthen its knowledge network by integrating accessible technologies and contemporary practices. Implementing a strategy that combines technological tools, training and active collaboration would significantly improve the efficiency and scope of knowledge sharing, boosting the association's growth and visibility in the local livestock sector.
