FLOREZ M., Diego Hernando; MORALES, Alexis; URIBE G., Claudia Patricia  e  CONTRERAS P., Carlos Alberto. Analysis of trends in basic research in agribusiness productive chains. Corpoica cienc. tecnol. agropecu. [online]. 2012, vol.13, n.2, pp.121-135. ISSN 0122-8706.

Infrastructure and information management is a critical component in the development of national and international agribusiness of the agricultural sector, where demand, and not technology, directs technology development, with the aim of improving and strengthening demand, such as distribution, storage of fresh or minimally processed products and high valueadded crops and breeding crop and livestock, sustainable management, technology transfer, etc. This research aims to develop the analysis of trends in research as an international practice mandatory for R&D, where knowledge of the technological environment tends to support and justify the investment of human and material resources in various research projects, from technology vigilance as a strategic management tool. The framework for action focuses on the production chains of the agricultural sector in Colombia, taking as a reference 13 subject areas, where the identification of international benchmarks for supply chains should be consistent with the particular demands of each chain and the subject areas it encompasses, so that the results of this process are input for shortening gaps and strengthening the sector. As a case study, this research is part of an analysis of trends in basic research for the productive chains of cacao, dairy, beef and potatoes, obtaining an analysis of trends in research, identification of international references, thematic priorities, etc.

Palavras-chave : competitive intelligence; technology vigilence; agribusiness; cacao; potato; dairy; beef.
