Abstract

Currently there is a consensus in the scientific community that many of the goods and services generated by environmental assets aren´t detected by the market due to they are intangible asset as tangible, it is difficult, and in some cases impossible. For this reason, the objective of the present work was the economic valuation and to know the prioritization of the environmental assets of the ecosystem of the Pacucha lagoon and, through the AMUVAM model made up of AHP and the method of updating income, through the survey of a group of experts (46 people) in the judgment of the researcher, it was possible to determine the total economic value amounting to $ 20,793,456.81, whose prioritization gives the direct use value with a weight (29.57%), followed by existence value (18.28 %), indirect use value 18.23% legacy value (17.66%) and option value (16.26%). In addition, in the interest of knowing the existence value, the economic value is $ 3,801,788.67 to this component of the VET, experts prioritize the biodiversity subcomponent (51.41%), followed by cultural heritage and visual landscape (27.07% and 21.52%) respectively. Obtaining this economic value would turn out to be a very important tool that allows us to evaluate and compare the different benefits of said asset for conservation and sustainability in a way that improves the management of its resources.
