“Fair trade initiatives represent an essential support for the scarce opportunities that
have arisen in the agricultural sector, as they cover various areas that contribute to
increasing good trade practices. It is essential to highlight the contribution of fair trade
in urban and rural areas, as it becomes a valuable incentive for differentiation. The
main objective of this study was to determine how Fair Trade is applied in the socioeconomic and ecological sphere in an association of sustainable agricultural producers
in the Peruvian jungle. This is quantitative research with a non-experimental crosssectional design. The survey technique was used, and a questionnaire was applied to 99
agricultural producers in the Amazon region of northern Peru, because it would help
to analyze the new challenges of fair trade. In addition, data analysis and processing
was carried out with Microsoft Office Excel and SPSS. The results show that 51% of the
producers surveyed have been sensitized to adopt socially responsible actions aimed
at strengthening sustainable development, social responsibility and good practices for
fair trade in favor of the preservation of the resources of the Peruvian Amazon, as well
as the socioeconomic development of farmers and the region itself. Forty-seven percent carry out social responsibility activities under the guidance of the Fairtrade organization, which has accompanied farmers to obtain Fairtrade certification. In addition,
59% of respondents say that they engage in healthy competition that generates trust
among farmers. Fairtrade enables associated farmers to improve their ethical behavior
and respect for their rights as well as those of the entire community“
