This study was conducted with 17 entrepreneurs employing 238 workers to May 2012. The sample included predominantly married, with children, with undergraduate studies and members of an association that had 42 woman entrepreneurs associated. The sample represented 40.48% of the study population, owners of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the city of Aguascalientes, Mexico. The results show little discrimination, envy, repression and harassment. Women entrepreneurs agree that women are taking care of family welfare and psychologically and are prepared to be mothers. We find that greater workplace harassment is associated with lower income and less access to leadership positions.

These decisions are influenced by a number of factors or elements. This paper shows the different processes that, consciously or unconsciously, influence an individual’s decision making process. We consider decision theory as it relates to behavior and psychology of the decider. The motivation of the work is based on the importance for those who decide, their education and training. We consider the influence of psychological models on the decider, the deciders own characteristics, environmental conditions, the biases and heuristics. The work investigates various theories and the psychological mechanisms executed when the scope is no longer the everyday. Making decisions requires the creation of new decisions, and the same occurs in conditions of risk and uncertainly.

Information provides businesses with more informed processes and future projects. According to (Kotler 2006), market research is an essential tool for the process of collection and use of information for better decision making in marketing. This information creates knowledge about the relevance of any new project. We conduct market research in the community of Benito Juarez, Sonora, Mexico. This was done along with the families of this area for the purpose of obtaining accurate information for decision-making on the implementation of the production system Aqua Agricultural. This system is to fit in the backyard of homes in the region under study. The intention is that the same families manage and administer its production. This could be for consumption, trade or recreation. From the above, we posit the following research question. Is it feasible to implement an Acua-Agricultural production system in the backyards of homes of families from the Benito Juarez municipality? To answer this research question, we conducted a market research and collect information and process it to develop conclusions of this project.
