Manual de buenas prácticas ambientales para la conservación de suelos en la finca el algarrobo de la parroquia palmales del año 2024.

Abstract

The objective of this degree work was to create a manual of good environmental practices for the El Algarrobo farm located in the Arenillas canton, province of El Oro, where cocoa and lemon are grown. First, a physical-chemical analysis of the soil was made in order to verify the current state of the soil and thus verify its degradation factors. Next, a survey was made to the workers of the farm in order to obtain the production data of the El Algarrobo farm. Then, a bibliographic search and analysis of good environmental practices manuals for cocoa and lemon crops was conducted in repositories and internet databases. Finally, a good environmental practices manual was developed for the El Algarrobo farm. The implementation of this manual will help mitigate impacts on soil and water resources.
