Resumen: that allows proposing strategies to reduce poverty levels. A descriptive field research was carried out with the application of 184 surveys and was complemented with bibliographical research and the application of tools such as SWOT and the CAME matrix for the strategy approach. It was determined that there are seven sources of income in the parish, the main one is agriculture with 44% and the cultivation of potato as the main item, 54% of producers have diversified their sources of income, however 56% of the total income of the home is generated by off-farm activities. As strategies, associative marketing and the creation of an agrotourism route were proposed, contributing to increase income and improve the quality of life of the small producers of the parish. It is concluded that, if the income from agricultural activities does not increase, off-farm activities will continue to gain space, which could lead to losses in food production and migration from the countryside to the city
