Abstract: [EN] The Fruit and Vegetable Agricultural Production Units (UPA) in Antioquia were characterized and typified, using the characteristics taken into account by the policies, to propose elements that contribute to the formulation and implementation of a differentiated public policy that addresses the categories of the typification and according to their particular situation, in terms of capacities and limitations. Thematic indexes were formed; these were later weighted quantitatively and used to perform the clustering with the K-means grouping method, determining 6 clusters, the characteristics of each one were analyzed to make recommendations to improve the process of implementation of sectoral public policy. [ES] Se caracterizaron y tipificaron las Unidades Productivas Agrícolas-UPA hortofrutícolas en Antioquia, utilizando las características tenidas en cuenta por las políticas, para plantear elementos que contribuyan a una formulación e implementación de política pública diferenciada que atienda las categorías de la tipificación y de acuerdo con su situación particular, en términos de capacidades y limitaciones. Se conformaron índices temáticos; que posteriormente se ponderaron cuantitativamente y fueron utilizados para realizar la clusterización con el método de agrupación K-means determinándose 6 clústeres, las carac-terísticas de cada uno fueron analizadas para realizar recomendaciones que mejoren el proceso de imple-mentación de política pública sectorial.
