Descripción:Over time, several authors have investigated the relationship between climatic conditions and animal production, showing that the comfort state positively influences production. This research aimed to make a methodological proposal for the analysis of animal thermal comfort in isolated areas, taking as a case study, three Territorial Spaces for Training and Reincorporation, where productive projects are carried out within the framework of the Final Agreement for the Termination of the Conflict and the Construction of a Stable and Lasting Peace, using climatic data of temperature and relative humidity obtained of time series from 2002 to 2019, using remote sensors. The proposed methodology based on the use of free access digital platforms proved to be applicable, and in the case studies it found that the regions that may have the least impact on broilers, pigs and cattle are Tierra Grata and Miravalle, while in Caño Indio, it is suggests adopting climate control strategies to improve the animal thermal environment.
