Nelson Castellon, Hildegard Garming, Harold Gamboa, Manuel Deras, Charles Staver Material and methods Results NH4 NO3 NH4 NO3 Conclusions: The study shows that producers have the opportunities to improve their income from banana by improving their quality. Most traders expressed their demand for a better product and their willingness to pay higher prices according the quality it is achieved. This could be the first option to increase income by selling bananas. We also identified other marketing options such as in a formal market. However for its use, is necessary that producers have a level of organization that allows them to reach the minimum requirements in terms of volume and product quality, and get more negotiation power against traders Bioversity International, CATIE, Turrialba, Costa Rica n.castellon@catie.ac.cr, www.bioversityinternational.com Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza MARKET ANALYSIS OF BANANAS PRODUCED IN THE COFFEE PLANTATION OF SMALL PRODUCERS USING A CHAIN APPROACH IN HONDURAS Introduction: The market analysis of bananas produced in the coffee plantation of small producers in Honduras, focuses on the study of the bananas productive chain of the coffee plantation in Honduras. The research is based on data collected from 45 producers, 30 local traders, exporters and importers 13 and 50 consumers. The main purpose was to identify a formal and participatory way, market access alternatives that improve the small producer’s incomes by selling their bananas. The research was undertaken in three phases: review of secondary information, formal market research and the participatory market research phase. This research work was developed in two coffee areas of Honduras , Peña Blanca and San Pedro of Tutule. However, it was necessary to understand the marketing mechanisms in the different markets either national or international where the coffee plantation bananas are marketed. Two productive chains were identified that sell the banana production in Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras markets. Revisión de información secundaria • Protocolo de investigación • Elaboración de instrumentos para captar información • Identificación de cadenas productivas y actores claves • Entrevistas a comerciantes y empresarios • Ordenamiento y clasificación de información • Análisis de la información Recopilación de información primaria • Capacitación en temas de mercado • Coordinación para entrevistas • Gira Participativa de Mercados • Sistematización de la Experiencia • Retroalimentación de la información Mercado Participativo El comportamiento general de los ingresos por racimo de banano comercializado, presenta una tendencia regular, es decir existe similitud en el comportamiento de los ingresos en los agentes involucrados. Los exportadores presentan mayores ganancias, sin embargo, asumen mayores riesgos por ser los responsables de garantizar el producto, transportarlo, transportarlo y entregarlo en tiempo en el mercado final (figura 2). Figure 2: comportamiento de los ingresos de los principales actores de la cadena productiva en base a un racimo de banano. En Honduras, se identificaron dos cadenas productivas, las cuales están conformada por 3 canales de comercialización con destinos finales en El Salvador, Guatemala y Honduras. Para los bananos de los cafetales El Salvador y Guatemala son los mercados mas importantes ya que el 64% de la producción se comercializa en estos mercados. Estas cadenas, están integrado por los productores, los exportadores nacionales y extranjeros, los mayoristas, los detallistas y los consumidores. Aunque este producto se comercializa mas en los mercados informales, el mercado formal comienza a interesarse por los bananos, actualmente Hortifrutiesta comercializando con la variedad Dátil (figura 1).

The margins generated, suggest that producers are complementing their income by selling bananas mainly in the months where there is no coffee production. (Table 2) .
