Resumen
Esta investigación presenta un estudio preliminar sobre el nivel de intención emprendedora que presenta la provincia de Jaén dentro del sector oleícola. El estudio tiene el objetivo de mostrar una perspectiva que nace desde los propios agricultores. Desde el entendimiento de cómo se configuran sus valores personales. No hay estudios que hayan analizado este sector desde este punto de vista, es por ello, que la investigación ofrece una diferente perspectiva sobre la situación por la que el sector está transcurriendo en la actualidad. La configuración de los valores personales que tienen los individuos está demostrada que afecta al nivel de intención emprendedora. Es por ello que es relevante el estudio de los valores personales de los agricultores de Jaén para realizar un mejor entendimiento por el que el sector transcurre; en este sentido, la investigación presenta cómo esta configuración afecta al nivel de intención emprendedora existente en el sector. Una muestra de 73 individuos repartidas a lo largo de la provincia de Jaén ha ayudado a realizar esta investigación. Al basar este estudio en modelos de intención emprendedora, los resultados demuestran que los agricultores presentan una alta capacidad de control percibido del comportamiento emprendedor pero la actitud emprendedora y la norma subjetiva no son suficientes para que empujen a tener en última instancia una efectiva intención emprendedora. Las dimensiones de Apertura-al-cambio y auto-ensalzamiento presentan indicadores positivos y significativos para favorecer los niveles de emprendimiento. Por el contrario, la dimensión de auto-transcendencia afecta de manera negativa y significativa. La dimensión conservación no tiene un comportamiento significativo que favorezca una conducta emprendedora. Los agricultores denotan una alta habilidad para
gestionar los procesos de creación y llevar a cabo sus iniciativas emprendedoras, pero al final no las materializan. Por tanto, dentro del análisis de estos agricultores se denota una fuerte tendencia a querer emprender, pero la realidad es algo más dispar. Comentarios al respecto se presentan en la sección de conclusiones y discusiones. Los resultados pueden ser interesantes desde una doble perspectiva: desde la educación universitaria podría favorecerse una educación emprendedora para formar a los nuevos agentes participantes en este sector; y, por otro lado, desde los centros de formación podrían favorecerse este tipo de conducta. Hasta ahora, la mayoría de las ayudas se fomentan desde una óptica del cooperativismo. El emprendimiento podría ser un complemento a la realidad de este sector para que se puedan mejorar los niveles económicos y sociales de esta provincia.
This research presents a preliminary study about the level of entrepreneurial intention among the olive farmer sector within the province of Jaén. The study aims to offer a different perspective from the farmers themselves. From the comprehension of how they arrange their personal value structure. There are no studies that have analysed this sector from this perspective. The setting of the individuals’ personal value structure is demonstrated that affects the level of entrepreneurial intention. Correspondingly, it is relevant to study the setting of the olive farmers’ personal value structure to develop a different comprehension of this sector. In this sense, the research presents how this setting of personal value affects the entrepreneurial intention within this sector. A sample of 73 individuals spread out the province of Jaén helps building this research. Since this study considers intention models, results shed light on olive farmers stressing a high perceived behavioural control, however, personal attitude and subjective norm variables are not enough to ultimately initiate an effective entrepreneurial intention. Openness-to-change and self-enhancement dimensions have a significant and positive influence to foster entrepreneurship levels. Conversely, the self-transcendence dimension negatively and significantly activates entrepreneurial intentions. The conservation dimension does not positively, nor significantly encourage the individuals’ entrepreneurial intention. Olive farmers consider themselves able to manage creation processes and to carry out their entrepreneurial initiatives, they do not become them real yet. Accordingly, the research may acknowledge that there is a strong predisposition to become entrepreneurial, albeit the reality is somewhat more uneven. Comments are presented in the conclusion and implication section. Results may be twofold useful: from the perspective of higher educational institutions, they may be beneficial to implement a real entrepreneurial education to shape new individuals to be immersed in the entrepreneurship sector; on the other hand, from the entrepreneurial public hubs perspective, they may foster real entrepreneurial endeavours. Up to now, most of the public aid aims to help cooperative behaviours within the olive sector in the province of Jaén. Entrepreneurship may be a complement to this reality working both of them together to improve economic and social levels in this province.
