Abstract

At present, Credit and Service Cooperatives
(CSC) are the most productive and numerous in the country,
with the greatest amount of partners and usufructuaries,
which have promoted training needs of information on
scientific and technical advances; therefore, this work was
conducted with the objective of analyzing agrarian training
from farmers’ view. The investigation was performed in
20 CSCs from Boyeros municipality, Havana, Cuba, by
applying a survey to 256 producers, which had two general
questions aimed to know producers’ working experience on
the agrarian activity and three specific questions responding
to three variables: training significance, the way producers
receive training information and how producers demand
training. The survey was processed through SPSS statistical
package version 19 for complex designs. The main results
showed that the development of training activities is very
important to producers; besides, a high percentage of them
refer that their training attendance obeys decision-makers’
indication and, finally, most of them point out that they have
rarely or never participated in a training demand inquiry.
