    The agricultural sector is crucial for sustainable and inclusive food systems, helping to reduce poverty, increase income, and improve food security for 80% of the world's most vulnerable population, primarily in rural areas (World Bank, 2023). This study analyzed the effects of exchange rates and financial aspects on the import of raw materials in Colombia's agricultural sector, using data from 2007 to 2023. The TRM was taken as the dependent variable, with Cereals, Fertilizers, and Inorganic Chemicals as independent variables. The analysis included descriptive statistics, multiple regression, and ANOVA. The results indicated that the Cereals variable was significant with a p-value of 0.023 in relation to the TRM, suggesting that an increase in cereal imports is associated with a decrease in the exchange rate. Additionally, it was concluded that TRM fluctuations do not fully explain the import of raw materials, suggesting that other external variables should also be considered.
