The same that allowed to formulate an adequate alternative for a sustainable management within the farm, it was obtained as a result that the farm does not carry out an adequate management of solid waste, this is due to its bad practices that has been the reason for the production of various negative impacts such as the emission of gases toxic organic compounds, generation of bad odors and visual pollution on the soil resource organic and inorganic waste and burning remains. In conclusion, under this analysis of the problem, the use of biodigesters was considered as the best alternative, thanks to the fact that it helps to eliminate this waste and through this allows the elaboration of new goods and services such as the generation of fertilizer and biogas.
