El banano como recurso endógeno y su incidencia en el pib agrícola del Ecuador periodo 2019-2022.

Abstract

The banana is an endogenous resource of great relevance with a significant contribution to the country's trade, economy and society, standing out as an important sector for national dynamization, since it influences the GDP, the trade balance, and generates jobs both directly and indirectly. The present work uses a documentary-bibliographic research of a non-experimental nature, under a descriptive level, where representative characteristics of the object of study were determined. The results reveal that bananas have an impact of more than 50% on agricultural GDP. Within the period studied, it was observed that the sector has had increasing and decreasing production and export trends. The year 2020 stands out as the most influential, despite difficulties in exporting and producing this fruit, it was the year where this sector stood out the most, having an impact of 67% on the agricultural GDP and 5.5% on the national GDP, contributing with more than 45,000 jobs, being a significant contribution since the economy was in recession.
