Abstract: Livestock activity in the department of Caquetá plays a crucial role in the economic development of the region and constitutes the main livelihood of rural households. Most of these Caquetá families are dedicated to raising cattle, focusing on the production of meat and raw milk to satisfy the demand of the processing industry and the regional, national and international market. However, the livestock models implemented for years in this region have tended to fail due to their extractivist nature, which transforms the landscape and displaces biodiversity, thus contributing to climate change variations. Although livestock reconversion projects have been developed, they have not been sufficiently effective due to the lack of information on the conditions of the productive units and the recognition of the actors and their identification with these processes. In view of these crucial information needs to improve livestock reconversion processes, our objective in this paper is to carry out an analysis of livestock production management and sustainability practices.
