Resumen en inglés Farmers of Theobroma cacao L. from the municipality of Belén de los Andaquíes, affiliated with ASOPROABELEN, have managed to establish various internal and external social networks that have strengthened their organic cacao production system, undertaking exercises in organization and both national and international marketing of the cacao bean. However, despite their significant organizational and financial achievements, there is no clear understanding of whether these relationships with institutions have enhanced their stock of social capital as an organized collective. This research focuses on the study of this group's institutional rural social networks and their contribution to social capital. It is a quantitative study; data were collected through questionnaires, and surveys tabulated in spreadsheets and then processed using Excel and the UCINET software version 6.0. Among the most important findings, the collective that participated in the research has built institutional social networks from which they have obtained various benefits. However, these relationships tend to be short-lived and lack continuity.
