This research was aimed to determine the sustainability of avocado and tangerine agroecosystems in Cañete, Lima (Peru), with specific objectives: i) To estimate the diversity of beneficial arthropods in those agroecosystems; ii) To characterize the avocado and tangerine farms in Cañete; iii) To determine the sustainability of avocado and tangerine crops in Cañete. A sample of 48 farms were selected, collecting specimens and then identifying them in laboratory. Additionally, farmers fulfilled a structured survey about economic, environmental and social aspects, to elaborate a Hierarchic Cluster Analysis (Ward’s Method, Squared Euclidean distance fixed in eight) and then one farm per cluster was selected to develop the sustainability analysis by the adaptation of indicators proposed by Sarandon et al. (2006), Marquez &Julca (2015). There were 23 predatory found, from which Ceraeochrysa cincta and Gasteracantha cancriformis outstand; and 10 families of parasitoid wasps were collected, being Braconidae and Ichneumonidae the most abundant. After characterization, five groups (clusters), were conformed, being remarkable group 1, with tangerine farms for export, technician formation, complete services and investments during cropping season exceeding S/. 15 000.00/ha. Only farms from group 3, with diversified crops and animal husbandry, were sustainable.
