Restoration of soils with different levels of degradation for sustainable food production in areas of the Alejandro de Humboldt National Park
Main Article Content
Abstract
The work was developed in the period 2013-2014, in sectors La Melba and Baracoa covering Subslices Santa Maria recreation, community Naranjo of the Toa and Nasa respectively, the objectives of this study were to assess effect of techniques applied in soils with different levels of degradation and evaluate the appropriate technologies for the production of food in mountain ecosystems. Took into account the methodologies and procedures as tools for a better understanding and interpretation of the results obtained, such as afforestation, herbaceous cover, construction of mattress of branches, also performed community work integrated implementation and customization of the technical guide for the development of seed bank of name by multiplying stonemasons. During the development of the stage that was evaluated was managed to stabilize a total of 30 hectares with different levels of degradation of soils, also was given maintenance to 25 hectares that had been treated in earlier stages for a total of 55 acres treated. In the evaluation of the implementation of the technology for the production of seeds of Yam achieved acceptable yields among the evaluated clones: (yellow T1 with 25 tn/Cab., white yellow T2 with 37 tn/Cab., T3 Filipino with 45 tn/Cab., and white T4 with 20 tn/Cab; respectively.)
