Resumen
SANCHEZ-SANCHEZ, Araceli et al. Adoption of innovations and associated factors in agricultural and agroindustrial family businesses of Mexico. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.154, pp.43-55. ISSN 0123-5923. https://doi.org/10.18046/j.estger.2020.154.3424.
The literature points out that innovation is based on knowledge, to promote changes that generate greater benefits in companies. In this paper, the level of adoption of innovations and the factors associated with innovation are analyzed in 94 Mexican agricultural and industrial family businesses, which participated in a training focused on technical, administrative, organizational and family aspects. 63% of these companies were surveyed, and the information, through indicators of innovation, comparison of averages, and correlations, was analyzed. The results showed significant impacts in the adoption of innovations in the four aspects; in addition, it was found that the education, the years in the activity, and the number of relatives involved in the company are associated with higher levels of innovation.
