There are many ways get close to the future, being the prospective the one that conceives the future, not like an unique reality but like a multiple one, obtained as a result of the identification of the human being future actions. For all this, the human being takes the knowledge, the yearnings and the fears that he sees for the actions he will undertake.
Keeping in mind the characteristic of the palm cultivation (perennial, of late growth, with a 25 years productive horizon), and the future of the sector captured in “Visión y estrategias de la palmicultura colombiana 2000 – 2020” together with the economic tendencies of the world, the methodology of planning denominated prospective, becomes an appropriate tool to establish the future of the oleochemical sector derived from the palm and palmist oils, which is right now very incipient in our country.
Using the prospective, this article outlines the dynamics that will have the sector, starting from the definition of the keys that define the current and future behavior of the system, the position and the power that each one of the involved actors will have, and the determination of the scenarios (future representations) with more probability to occur, as well as the definition of the scenario wanted and the strategies that will allow to reach it.
Existen diferentes formas de aproximarse al futuro, pero la prospectiva es la única que concibe el futuro no como una realidad única sino como una realidad múltiple obtenida como resultado de la identificación de la acción futura del hombre, valiéndose del conocimiento de los proyectos, anhelos y temores que tiene el mismo hombre con respecto a las acciones que emprenderá.
Teniendo en cuenta las características propias del cultivo de palma (perenne, de tardío crecimiento, con un horizonte productivo de 25 años) y el futuro del sector, plasmado en “Visión y estrategias de la palmicultura colombiana 2000 - 2020”, unido a las tendencias económicas del mundo, la metodología de planeación denominada prospectiva, se convierte en una herramienta apropiada para establecer el futuro del sector oleoquímico derivado de los aceites de palma y de palmiste, actualmente incipiente en nuestro país.
Por medio de la metodología prospectiva, en este artículo se plantea la dinámica que tendrá el sector, a partir de la definición de las variables claves que determinan el comportamiento actual y futuro del sistema, la posición y el poder de acción que tendrá cada uno de los actores involucrados y la determinación de los escenarios (representaciones de futuro) con mayor probabilidad de ocurrencia, así como la definición del escenario apuesta o deseado y las estrategias que permitirán alcanzarlo.
