Abstract
Introduction. Agriculture is one of the most important economic sectors for Latin American countries. Government policies should be aimed at strengthening this agricultural sector for the food security of the countries, with the appropriate measures for the protection of the environment. The role of agriculture in the economy reaffirms the thesis that it is important not only because it constitutes the way of life of millions of people in the Ecuadorian countryside, but also because it is a strategic sector that contributes directly to rural territorial development, and therefore, to the economic and social development of the country. Revaluing the peasant producer and repositioning agriculture and rural life is one of the main challenges of continuous policy evaluation. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has created a platform with agricultural data from Latin American countries - Agrimonitor. Objective. The problem addressed in this research is that the government of Ecuador and its exporters of agricultural products should use this platform to better direct their production, the objective is to make this tool and its management known to take advantage of the country's agricultural sector. Methodology. The research design is qualitative with the method of observation and reading of documents issued by the IDB and works related to the issue of strengthening agricultural production in the country. Results and conclusions. It is concluded that the Agrimonitor tool could be of great importance for state decisions in the agricultural field.
