Conteúdo: | The results are given of 6 yr of technical assistance from CIAT, integrated with a program of the National Coffee Growers Federation, designed to diversify crops being grown in the region of Caicedonia (Colombia). From an initial 60 ha and 8 farmers in 1971, the program has developed more than 1300 ha with 90 farmers. This has been achieved through a combination of factors including favorable environmental conditions, high net profits, a high-yielding local variety (Chiroza Gallinaza), market proximity, farmer receptivity to tachnical assistance, and availability and timeliness of credit. Special problems dealt with succesfully include biological control of Erinnyis ello and CBB eradication. Optimal plant density recommended for this region is 7000 plants/ha. The region has benefited both socially and economically.
