The offer of ecosystem services (ES) depends, to a large extent, on the intervention of the producer families on their farms. With the aim of identifying the perception of offer of ecosystem services (ES) in agricultural and forestry use systems in the dry zone of north Tolima, 40 semistructured surveys were carried out to local agricultural producers. The information was analyzed using the Likert scale: 0 to 10 (from lowest to highest). Producers attach high importance to ESs, although they do little to maintain or increase their supply. Water supply is the most important SE that the producers identify for the management of their crops, but they indicate that this service is negatively affected by the intensification of agricultural use and the poor protection of recharge zones. Producers have detected a temperature rise in the area in recent years and they feel vulnerable to climate change and poor water regulation. In the same way, the lack of knowledge about the carbon footprint of these production systems is also evident. However, after explaining the concept, producers are interested in knowing the emission of greenhouse gases and carbon fixation on their farms. The findings of this study are important to generate environmental awareness in agricultural producers, to encourage sustainable practices and decisions that promote ES. This study shows that the design of policies to improve water regulation and to contribute to reforestation programs for the dry forests is necesary.
