Abstract
en la comuna de San Felipe, centrado en la implementación de la plantación de cerezos bajo el sistema de formato parrón. Este modelo productivo surge como una respuesta a los desafíos impuestos por el cambio climático y la escasez hídrica, factores que han afectado la productividad y sostenibilidad económica de cultivos tradicionales en la región.
El proyecto, desarrollado en un predio agrícola con características optimas y climáticas favorables, busca aprovechar la ventaja competitiva de las cerezas chilenas en el mercado internacional. Esto incluye su producción en contra estación y su alta demanda en mercados asiáticos, especialmente en China, donde se han registrado incrementos sostenidos en la exportación de cerezas chilenas.
La inversión inicial requerida es de $1.464.975 millones de pesos, distribuidos en la infraestructura de formato parrón, las plantas de cereza y toda la mano de obra asociada a la etapa inicial.
La evaluación financiera utiliza indicadores como el Valor Actual Neto (VAN), la Tasa Interna de Retorno (TIR) y el periodo de recuperación de la inversión (Payback), obteniendo resultados que respaldan la viabilidad del proyecto. El análisis indica un VAN de $878.934.050 y una TIR del 21%, superando la tasa de descuento establecida del 10,96%.
Entre los beneficios proyectados destacan:
La implementación del sistema de parrón permite un notable incremento en la productividad, alcanzando rendimientos de hasta 24.000 kg/ha1 al quinto año, mientras que la adopción de riego tecnificado optimiza el uso de los recursos hídricos, garantizando una gestión más eficiente y sostenible del agua.
Además, el proyecto considera un análisis PESTEL y FODA para identificar factores críticos de éxito y posibles riesgos asociados al entorno político, económico, social, tecnológico, ambiental y legal.
La implementación se sustenta en un enfoque metodológico mixto que combina datos primarios obtenidos mediante entrevistas a expertos del sector y análisis de mercado, con datos secundarios provenientes de publicaciones académicas y estadísticas sectoriales.
En conclusión, la plantación de cerezos en formato parrón no solo representa una solución viable y sostenible a los desafíos actuales del sector agrícola, sino también una oportunidad estratégica para fortalecer la competitividad de Chile como líder en la exportación de frutas frescas a nivel global.
This thesis evaluates the financial feasibility of an innovative agricultural project in the San Felipe commune, focusing on the implementation of cherry plantations under the trellis system. This production model arises as a response to the challenges posed by climate change and water scarcity, factors that have impacted the productivity and economic sustainability of traditional crops in the region. The project, developed on an agricultural property with optimal characteristics and favorable climatic conditions, seeks to leverage the competitive advantage of Chilean cherries in the international market. This includes their off-season production and high demand in Asian markets, particularly in China, where sustained increases in Chilean cherry exports have been recorded. The initial investment required amounts to $1,464.975 million pesos, distributed among the trellis infrastructure, cherry plants, and all the labor associated with the initial phase. The financial evaluation uses indicators such as the Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Payback Period, obtaining results that support the project’s feasibility. The analysis indicates an NPV of $878,934,049 and an IRR of 21%, exceeding the established discount rate of 10.96%. Among the projected benefits, the implementation of the trellis system allows for a significant increase in productivity, reaching yields of up to 24,000 kg/ha by the fifth year, while the adoption of technified irrigation optimizes the use of water resources, ensuring more efficient and sustainable water management. Additionally, the project includes a PESTEL and SWOT analysis to identify critical success factors and potential risks associated with the political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and legal environment. The implementation is based on a mixed-methodological approach that combines primary data obtained through interviews with industry experts and market analysis, with secondary data from academic publications and sectoral statistics. In conclusion, the cultivation of cherries under the trellis system not only represents a viable and sustainable solution to the current challenges of the agricultural sector but also a strategic opportunity to strengthen Chile's competitiveness as a global leader in the export of fresh fruit.
