This research was aimed to quantify the effect of soil degradation on the economic income of family farming in the county of Emilio María Terán, Pillaro municipality in the Tungurahua province. A field survey was carried out using a closed-ended questionary that enabled to gather information about soil degradation, socio-economic and farm production. The survey was applied to 196 households´ farmers heads from 11 neibourghoods. The percentage of the degraded soil that is not cultivated was 70.9%. The qualitative analysis showed that farmers' economy was precarious together with degraded soils farms. However, from the quantitative analysis soil degradation was not associated with the farm economic income.
