With the application of these technologies, the beneficiary producers will improve the productive level of their hectares, increase the yield of their crops, strengthen the quality and competitiveness of their agricultural production with an agro-export focus, in addition to reducing the rates of degradation of agricultural land.
(Agraria.pe) Within the framework of a training course “Soil interpretation and fertilization plan”, organized by the National Institute of Agrarian Innovation (INIA), small and medium producers from the Alto Shori Population Center of the Pichanaki district (Junín), adopted technologies to improve the quality of agricultural soil in coffee cultivation.
The technical activity is part of the “Peru 2M know the fertility of your soil” campaign, promoted by the INIA through its Agricultural Experimental Stations, with the aim of identifying the level of fertility of agricultural soil and, with this, defining protocols and strategies. for its conservation and care.
The course, directed by the Pichanaki Agrarian Experimental Station of the INIA, has transferred technologies and methodologies focused on the analysis of soil quality, collecting soil samples, production of organic fertilizer, recovery of degraded soils, good agricultural practices, among others.
With the application of these technologies, the beneficiary producers will improve the productive level of their hectares, increase the yield of their crops, strengthen the quality and competitiveness of their agricultural production with an agro-export focus, in addition to reducing the rates of degradation of agricultural land.
The agricultural soil samples will be analyzed by the INIA through the Water, Soil and Leaf Laboratory. The level of acidity (ph), presence of heavy metals, fertility values, water stress, among other parameters, will be evaluated to define soil conservation protocols.
