Transmission of climate shocks to livestock prices in regulated and unregulated markets: Evidence for raw milk in Colombian tropical livestock
This research investigates the impact of climate variability on the price trend of raw milk in Colombia, which is traded in regulated and unregulated markets. The findings indicate that climate variations do not affect the regulated price, whereas the unregulated market shows an asymmetric price response. The price increase is more significant than a favorable event in an adverse shock, such as a drought. This may clarify why small-scale producers tend to favor this market despite receiving lower prices on average for their raw milk

Strategic Addressing in Small Cluster Factories
El prop贸sito de la investigaci贸n se centra en analizar el direccionamiento estrat茅gico de peque帽as f谩bricas del cl煤ster de madera en el departamento del Atl谩ntico, que enfrentan grandes retos de crecimiento y sostenibilidad en funci贸n del entorno donde se desenvuelven. Se fundament贸 en un enfoque metodol贸gico cualitativo, con un tipo de investigaci贸n explicativa, esencial para la explicaci贸n de las variables estudiadas y sus condiciones. Adicional a esto, la investigaci贸n se lleva a cabo a trav茅s de un estudio de casos, la poblaci贸n estuvo conformada por las microempresas fabricantes de muebles, y los informantes claves fueron 8 de ellas, las cuales se seleccionaron de manera intencional. Como herramienta de an谩lisis se utiliz贸 el modelo MMGO.
     Los resultados indicaron que los procesos de fabricaci贸n de muebles se ejecutan de forma Semi Industrial, sumado a esto, el manejo inadecuado de recursos, carencia de planificaci贸n, ordenamiento y una baja articulaci贸n del proceso, conlleva a presentar una baja competitividad.  As铆 mismo, la implementaci贸n de un plan de estandarizaci贸n de los procesos orientado al mejoramiento de la calidad de los productos. Se evidencia las debilidades significativas en sus procesos estrat茅gicos, estructura organizacional y gesti贸n humana, no obstante, han logrado sostener en un mercado competitivo y din谩mico como es el sector muebles y madera a trav茅s de las herramientas que brinda el direccionamiento estrat茅gico, se evidenci贸 que las empresas por muy peque帽as que sean pueden desarrollar practicas organizacionales que le permitan ordenar sus funciones empresariales para hacer frente a las exigencias de mercado.     The intention of the research go to analyze the strategic addressing of small factories of the cl煤ster of Wood in the department of Atlantic, which make face to a big challenges of growth and sustainability depending on the environment where they are developed. It was base don a methodological qualitative approach, with a type of explanatory, essential research for the explanation of the studied variables an its conditions. Additional to this, the research is carried out across a study of cases, the population was shaped by the micromanifacturing plants of furniture, and the key informants were 8 of then, which were selected in an intentional way.

     The results indicated that the manufacturing processes of furniture execute of form Semi Industrial added to this, the inadequate managing of resources, lack of planning, classification and a low joint of the process, carries to present a low competitiveness. Likewise, the implementation of a plan to standardized in the processes orientated to the improvement of the quality of the products. The significant weaknesses are demonstrated in its strategic processes, organizacional structure ande human management, however, they have managed to support on a competitive and dynamic market, as is the furnitur and Wood sector across the tolos that the strategic addressing offers, there was demonstrated that the companies for very small that are they can develop organizational practices that allow to arrange its business functions to face the market demands

[ES] Se examinan los efectos de la variabilidad clim谩tica sobre la tendencia de los precios de la leche cruda en Colombia, la cual se negocia en dos mercados: regulado y no regulado. Los resultados muestran que el precio regulado no responde a las variaciones clim谩ticas, mientras que en el mercado no regulado la respuesta es asim茅trica. El incremento frente a un choque adverso es de mayor magnitud, en contraste con un evento favorable. Esto podr铆a ayudar a explicar por qu茅 los peque帽os productores muestran preferencia por este mercado
