description Since the 1990s, Colombia has negotiated various free trade agreements with different countries and communities, eliminating import tariffs on different agricultural products that are sensitive to large volumes of importations, such as corn, a staple food in the family basket, which has shown a decrease in production in the last 20 years. This article proposes an evaluation of the effects of the Free Trade Agreement signed with the United States through the linear mixed model, having as a response variable the weekly prices of white and yellow corn marketed in the main Colombian market places in a period of time between June 1996 and December 2016, where there was a decrease in market prices, with repercussions on the incomes of Colombian corn producers.

Desde la década de los 90, Colombia ha firmado diferentes acuerdos de libre comercio con diversos países y comunidades, a fin de liberar los aranceles de importación de varios productos agropecuarios sensibles a grandes volúmenes de importaciones, como es el caso del maíz, alimento básico de la canasta familiar, el cual ha presentado una disminución en la producción en los últimos veinte años. Este artículo propone una evaluación de los efectos del Tratado de Libre Comercio celebrado con Estados Unidos a través del modelo lineal mixto, teniendo como variable respuesta los precios semanales del maíz blanco y amarillo comercializado en las principales plazas de mercado colombianas, en un lapso de tiempo comprendido entre junio de 1996 hasta diciembre de 2016. Donde se encontró una disminución en los precios de comercialización en el tiempo, generando repercusiones sobre el ingreso del productor de maíz colombiano por tonelada producida.   Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia 2018-02-06 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer reviewed Article application/pdf application/xml https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/cenes/article/view/5988 10.19053/01203053.v37.n65.2018.5988 Apuntes del Cenes; Vol. 37 No. 65 (2018); 151-172 Apuntes del Cenes; Vol. 37 Núm. 65 (2018); 151-172 2256-5779 0120-3053 spa https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/cenes/article/view/5988/6041 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/cenes/article/view/5988/7987 Copyright (c) 2018 Johanna Trochez Gonzalez, Marisol Valencia Cárdenas, Juan Carlos Salazar Uribe http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
