dc.description | The avocado is an exotic, fleshy fruit with a pleasant flavor, which is obtained from the tropical tree of the same name; In some parts of South America, it is known as Palta or Avocado. It is a crop widely practiced by farmers in America and other latitudes of the world. In Ecuador, according to the INEC, as of 2021, 7,195 hectares of avocado were cultivated, with a projection of reaching 10,000 hectares in the immediate future. The major producing provinces are Carchi (36%), Pichincha (31%), Imbabura (18%), Tungurahua (8%) and Santa Elena (7%). However, the crop is planted in at least 18 of the 24 provinces of Ecuador. The plant varieties planted are Hass, Fuerte and Zutano; but avocado production has been considered a complementary activity to that of other more traditional crops. For these reasons, the purpose of this research was to study edaphic fertilization in avocado cultivation, detail the agronomic problems caused by the misuse of fertilizers in the production of this cultivar, and describe the appropriate levels of edaphic fertilization used to obtain greater productivity and production. The findings indicate that, in our country, specifically in the valleys of the inter-Andean region, crops do apply fertilization programs according to the ecosystems, while on the Coast these agricultural practices are not reported. The research carried out also shows that technically fertilized plantations can increase their yields by up to 45 and 55%, even more so if accompanied by the application of supplementary irrigation. In consideration of the production, fruit size, and economic analysis of this agricultural activity in avocado, it is appropriate to apply: 2.14 kg of nitrogen, 0.74 kg of phosphorus, 2.52 kg of potassium, 810 g of zinc and 94.30 g of boron per tree/year. Additionally, you can add a dose of organic fertilizer, which may be decomposed bovine manure. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | El aguacate es un fruto exótico, carnoso, de agradable sabor, que se obtiene del árbol tropical del mismo nombre; en algunas partes de América del Sur se conoce como Palta o Avocado. Es un cultivo muy practicado por agricultores de América y otras latitudes del mundo. En Ecuador, según el INEC, al año 2021 se cultivaban 7195 hectáreas de aguacate, con proyección de llegar a 10000 hectáreas en un futuro inmediato. Las provincias mayormente productoras son: Carchi (36%), Pichincha (31%), Imbabura (18%), Tungurahua (8%) y Santa Elena (7%). Sin embargo, el cultivo se siembra en al menos 18 de las 24 provincias del Ecuador. Las variedades vegetales sembradas son: Hass, Fuerte y Zutano; pero la producción de aguacate ha sido considerada una actividad complementaria a la de otros cultivos más tradicionales. Por estas razones, el propósito de la presente investigación fue estudiar la fertilización edáfica en el cultivo de aguacate, detallar los problemas agronómicos ocasionados por el mal uso de fertilizantes en la producción de este cultivar, y describir los niveles adecuados de fertilización edáfica utilizados para obtener mayor productividad y producción. Los hallazgos encontrados indican que, en nuestro país, específicamente en los valles de la región interandina, los cultivos si aplican programas de fertilización según los ecosistemas; mientras que en la Costa no se reportan estas prácticas agrícolas. Las investigaciones realizadas también demuestran que plantaciones técnicamente fertilizadas pueden aumentar sus rendimientos hasta un 45 y 55%, más aún si se acompaña con la aplicación de riego suplementario. En consideración a la producción, tamaño del fruto, y el análisis económico de esta actividad agrícola en aguacate, es apropiado aplicar: 2,14 kg de nitrógeno, 0,74 kg de fósforo, 2,52 kg de potasio, 810 g de zinc y 94,30 g de boro por árbol/año. Complementariamente se puede agregar una dosis de abono orgánico pudiendo ser estiércol de bovino descompuesto. | es_ES |
