Uso de indicadores para determinar la sostenibilidad de tres proyectos productivos de universidades en Costa Rica

Abstract: Use of indicators to determine sustainability in three university production projects in Costa Rica. We implemented a matrix of indicators to estimate and compare the level of sustainability of three milk production projects in university facilities in San Carlos, Guácimo and Turrialba, Costa Rica. The method had several stages: determination of current and reference values for indicators, standardization, weighting, aggregation and graphing. We generated an aggregated index of sustainability that evaluated th… Show more

“…Studies carried out by [10] show slightly similar values (economic, 40%; technical, 30%; environmental, 20%; and social, 10%). However, these values differ greatly from the study conducted in Costa Rica by [11], where the weighting was: Technical criterion, 36%; economic criterion, 25%; ecological criterion, 24%; and social criterion, 15%. Likewise, the authors of [4] established the following weights: Social, 37%; economic, 33%; and environmental, 30%.…”

“…Four main criteria (environmental, social, financial, and technical) were used to build the IISLE. These criteria were selected after reviewing studies [1,5,9,11,12,19,[28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] related to critical aspects of specialized dairy production systems and consulting professionals in the field of research. The information used to obtain the scores to be assigned to the criteria and sub-criteria came from field surveys and specific production data.…”

“…En el caso de la presencia de estos medios de recolección de información, no se hace la interpretación de la misma para la toma de decisiones (Pérez, 2000). El primer paso para iniciar un proceso de cambio tecnológico en los sistemas bovinos de carne, es la identificación de los animales, el cual va a permitir recolectar información y asociarla a un animal durante su vida productiva y un segundo paso, es la ubicación téc-nica del sistema, comparada a otras en la misma localidad o en otras partes del país (Arias-Reverón et al, 2012). El uso de indicadores productivos o reproductivos, es la principal herramienta, para la comparación entre sistemas y dentro del sistema (semoviente contra semoviente o finca contra finca), debido a que permiten, realizar la evaluación en unidades similares (Colmenares, Martínez, Domínguez, Birde & Herrera, 2007).…”
