ANÁLISIS ESTADÍSTICO DE DATOS DIFUSOS COMPARATIVO DE LA RENTABILIDAD DE LA PRODUCCIÓN DE MAÍZ MORADO EN EL DISTRITO DE HUANTA, PERÚ.

Purple corn (Zea mays L.) is a species that is highly consumed in Peru, particularly in Lima, which is why it has great commercial and nutritional value. The purpose of this paper is to study the profitability of the production of purple corn (Zea mays L.) in the agricultural communities of Maynay and Pampachacra in the District of Huanta, Ayacucho, Peru. Profitability is the indicator that corn production produces a significant added value with respect to the investments and expenses needed for its production. There are indications that the profitability of this crop is not adequate because the growers do not apply the appropriate techniques that this crop needs. To verify that there is greater enough profitability in the production of purple corn from one community over the other, the t-Student test is used, which is a test to compare whether two samples come from the same population. We carried out the measurement by means of a survey about the criteria of local corn farmers. In the survey, we substituted numerical data by fuzzy numbers for dealing with the vagueness of interviewed's criteria. This leads to the methods of random fuzzy numbers for data processing.
