description The objective of this study was to analyze the adoption rate of innovations of the cultivation of arracacha in the municipality of Cajamarca, Tolima, Colombia. A simple random sampling design was used to select a sample of 104 producers from a known population with a 90% confidence level and a maximum permissible error of 10%. Twenty-eight crop-related innovations were evaluated, in addition to a producer characterization. The innovation adoption rate were calculated, in addition to a descriptive univariate and multivariate multiple correspondences statistical analysis. There was a trend towards the adoption of practices aimed at increasing productivity in arracacha cultivation, although the lack of technical assistance and rural extension services was evident, as well as the need to strengthen associativity processes and active farmer participation in learning processes.

El objetivo del estudio fue analizar el índice de adopción de innovaciones del cultivo de arracacha en el municipio de Cajamarca, Tolima, Colombia. Se utilizó un diseño de muestreo aleatorio simple para seleccionar una muestra de 104 productores a partir de una población conocida, con un nivel de confianza del 90% y un error máximo permisible del 10%. Se evaluaron 28 innovaciones relacionadas con el cultivo, además de una caracterización de productores. Se calculó el índice de adopción de innovaciones, la tasa de adopción de innovaciones, además de un análisis estadístico descriptivo univariado y el análisis multivariante de correspondencias múltiples. Se observó una tendencia hacia la adopción de prácticas destinadas a aumentar la productividad en el cultivo de arracacha, aunque se evidenció la falta de asistencia técnica y servicios de extensión rural, así como la necesidad de fortalecer los procesos de asociatividad y la participación de los agricultores en procesos de aprendizaje.
