Abstract
La Coordinadora de Recolectoras y Recolectores de la Región del Biobío A.G (CORBIOBIO) es la principal agrupación gremial de recolectoras y recolectores de PFNM en Chile. Entre sus productos destaca la rosa mosqueta. El presente estudio busca evaluar y caracterizar a las unidades productivas participantes, algo relevante para estandarizar las condiciones de proceso e impulsar sus emprendimientos. Para ello, se emplearon tres entrevistas en el ámbito social y capacidades productivas, acompañadas de análisis en la calidad e inocuidad del producto deshidratado de rosa mosqueta.
Hoy en día las unidades productivas presentan una significativa diferenciación entre ellas, en cuanto a infraestructura, equipamientos y capacitaciones. Así como también en la composición del producto deshidratado de rosa mosqueta, ya que cada unidad productiva presenta diferentes zonas agroecológicas y diferentes manejos en el proceso de deshidratado. Se puede observar la alta desigualdad de género, el bajo nivel educacional, faltas de protección social e institucionalidad laboral para los recolectores.
Una ayuda para el avance del rubro es institucionalizar la recolección con leyes laborales establecidas, capacitar, asesorar y contribuir con ayudas económicas sociales e incentivo la innovación productiva, la agregación de valor a los PFNM recolectados desarrollando productos alimenticios saludables con carácter funcional pueden generar un eje competitivo para las agrupaciones pertenecientes a la CORBIOBIO.
The trade union of collectors of non wood forest products (NWFP), “Coordinadora de recolectoras y recolectores de la Región del Biobío A.G.” (CORBIOBIO) is the leading union of the type in Chile. Rosehip is among the main products collected. The present study seeks to characterize the participating processing units, relevant to standardize process conditions and propel their entrepreneurships. The methodology used was based on interviews, to describe the social field and productive capacities, accompanied by analyses on the quality and safety of the dehydrated rosehip products obtained. It was observed that the processing units show a significant difference among them, in terms of infrastructure, equipment, personal training and composition of the dehydrated product. The last is explained by different agro-ecological zones and different handling in the process of dehydration. High gender inequality, low educational level and lack of social protection for collectors was observed. The NWFP collectors would benefit as a result of established labor laws, education and training, as well as value added product innovation in developing healthy food products with functional character that impart a competitive axis for the groups belonging to the union.
