Abstract

Diverse innovation projects have the purpose of contributing to transaction of properties toward the sustainability. For this, need to have a line it bases, to plan the redesign and handling of the properties, as well as evaluate the changes that require, of quick, sensitive and feasible methods and applying minimum of resources. As components of the process of reconversion agro ecologic are considered: human capital, capacity of self-management, agro ecosystem, quality and transformability. Two case studies were selected: Property 465 in the municipality Guanabacoa, Havana province and Property Buey Arriba of Granma province; According to applied methodology to value the Social-Cultural (SC); Ecological-Environmental (EA) and Economic-Productive (EP) indicative, the sub-indexes were chosen it’s possible to measure particularly in each place. Finally It was obtained a Level of Sustainability (NS-SPA) equal to 1,190 in the property 465 and 2,359 in Buey Arriba, in 2018-2019 period.
