El tamaño empresarial como moderador estructural del desempeño de la responsabilidad social empresarial: evidencia desde el sector agrícola
Resumen
El presente estudio analiza las diferencias en el desempeño de las prácticas de Responsabilidad Social Empresarial (RSE) en función del estrato empresarial en el sector agrícola del municipio de Ahome, Sinaloa, México. Bajo el marco de la teoría de la doble responsabilidad, que integra la visión basada en recursos y la teoría de los grupos de interés, se evaluó una muestra de 102 empresas mediante un instrumento fundamentado en la ISO 26000 y las Buenas Prácticas Agrícolas. Se aplicó un análisis de varianza (ANOVA) para identificar diferencias significativas entre micro, pequeñas, medianas y grandes empresas. Los resultados evidencian que el tamaño empresarial actúa como condición estructural que modera la capacidad organizacional para implementar prácticas responsables, mostrando desempeños superiores en empresas medianas y grandes. Se concluye que la RSE no depende exclusivamente de la voluntad empresarial, sino de asimetrías en recursos, formalización y capacidades dinámicas. El estudio aporta evidencia empírica en contextos agrícolas emergentes y fortalece la discusión sobre la complementariedad entre responsabilidad económica y social.
