    This paper shows the results of the impact of different production systems on the quality and potential erosion of soil resources along two elevational gradients, Napo province, Ecuador. For this purpose, we used multivariate technique structural and morphological parameters evaluation indices soil and by analysis of categorical principal components. In general, soils presented clayey textural classes and silty clay, with predominantly fine materials, which will provide greater susceptibility to different physical degradation processes, such as surface sealing and crusting, erosion, compaction. The analysis of categorical principal component allowed to group production systems based on the elevational gradients and different parameters, indicating that the bulk density, total organic carbon, number of rill and % slope are the variables that define the quality of soil and its erosion potential.
