MERCADO YEBRA, Joaquín e YANEZ CARRILLO, Lucero. Units of agricultural production and profitability: Tecajec, Yecapixtla, Morelos. Trace (Méx. DF) [online]. 2023, n.83, pp.161-187. Epub 11-Dez-2023. ISSN 2007-2392. https://doi.org/10.22134/trace.83.2023.728.
The objective of the article is to measure and analyze the profitability of seasonal family agricultural production in three economic units, in order to determine to what extent the economic surplus, effective and imputed, covers the consumption and reproduction requirements of the capital of the agricultural cycle. The fieldwork was carried out in the town of Tecajec, Yecapixtla, Morelos, in the period June 2016-May 2017, using the farm research method complemented with case study techniques. It was found that the surplus was insufficient to cover the effective and imputed costs of labor and the average benefit from organizational activities, that is, there is no balance between family work and the needs of consumption and replacement of capital; the subsidies were indispensable for the new production cycle.
