Spanish term

encadenamiento productivo

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Mining & Minerals / Gems sustainable mining / Colo
This comes from a report on Colombia's achievements in sustainable development and efforts to reduce environmental impacts of mining and other production activities. There is no additional context.

Se capacitó a 700 mineros en temas relacionados con producción más limpia en beneficio del oro, *encadenamiento productivo*, legislación ambiental y minera para legalización y formalización.


The production chain? Or something to do with productivity?

integrated production

The idea is joining together links in the chain. It could be different companies in the same group working on different stages of production (for example one extracts the mineral, another refines it, and another distributes it), or it could mean cooperation between unrelated companies.

"Encadenamiento Productivo: Relación de largo plazo que establecen unidades empresariales con el propósito de obtener beneficios conjuntos, de allí que el interés de promoverlos, debe sustentarse en los beneficios económico-sociales que se derivan y no en el encadenamiento en si. La existencia de relaciones insumo -producto es una condición necesaria pero no suficiente para la existencia de un encadenamiento productivo, ya que el encadenamiento implica cierto grado de compromiso entre las empresas más allá de una compra – venta normal."

In this context, which is about reducing the environmental impact of mining, integrated production would be more energy efficient.

production linkage

A production linkage occurs when a sector
produces output which is then used as an intermediate input by another sector. An
example of this is the linkage between a farm producing food commodities and a foodprocessing
industry. From the point of view of a certain sector, there are two types of
production linkages: backward and forward linkages. For example, from a farm’s point of
view, the linkages to fertilizer and seed producers are backward linkages. On the other
hand, the linkages from the farm to food processing industries are forward linkages.
