    Elaboración de un abono orgánico a partir de residuos agropecuarios de la zona de Nabón
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2021-02-11) González González, Julia Mercedes; Toro Fernández, Jamileth del Cisne; Astudillo Segovia, Servio Rodrigo
    Annually, a considerable amount of vegetable waste is produced, but only a certain part of this production is used, thus in the area of Nabón there is a considerable amount of agricultural waste, which does not receive an optimal treatment that generates a benefit for the owners of the land containing this waste. Organic fertilizer is the material resulting from the natural decomposition of organic matter by the action of the microorganisms present in the environment, which digest the materials, transforming them into other beneficial ones that, applied correctly to the soil, improve the physical, chemical and microbiological conditions. The objective of this degree work is: “To prepare an organic fertilizer with agricultural residues of the area of Nabón”, which is based on two pillars of experimental and descriptive research. It is experimental because different parameters were manipulated in order to obtain an organic fertilizer and the physical-chemical parameters of the fertilizer were determined. It is descriptive because the study of the raw materials to be used was detailed, as well as the processes for preparing and characterizing the fertilizer. As a result, it was possible to elaborate and characterize the organic fertilizer from the agricultural residues of the area of Nabón and based on this, the dosages of the raw materials that must be used to obtain the organic fertilizer that meets the established parameters were obtained.
