dc.descriptionThe present research work was carried out on "Pruning practices in the cultivation of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus). The objectives were: Identify and characterize the best pruning practices in watermelon cultivation, and define the best pruning practice(s) in watermelon cultivation. The research was carried out using the bibliographic research methodology, raising all kinds of technical-technological information taken from publications, books, journals, articles, and websites specialized in this subject. The research techniques used were: the inductive-deductive reading, to make a general diagnosis on the possible best pruning practices in the cultivation of watermelon. The information collected in the research was analyzed, systematized, and summarized to identify the problem, its causes and results in relation to the possible best pruning practices in watermelon cultivation, but always without losing sight of the proposed study objectives. This study detected that watermelon is one of the main tropical fruits that is in great demand in Ecuador; It is also one of the main crops that are sown and that generate good economic income to the families that produce the fruit, but we find the reality that producers, mainly small and medium-sized, do not know this practice or do not know how to carry it out, consequently having low harvest and quality of fruits. For these reasons the research focuses on knowing the different types of pruning, training, phytosanitary, and production, how to perform them and post-pruning treatment so as not to affect the crop and make it more productive. We find that, mainly the pruning of formation, sanitary, and production, contribute to raise the volume of the harvests and the quality of the fruits. We conclude about how important it is to carry out pruning in the cultivation of watermelon, and that, therefore, this crop must be attended to like any other crop, making good tillage of the soil, sowing good varieties or hybrids, applying an adequate planting density, eliminating weeds, fertilizing, doing pest and disease controls, providing irrigation and, for our case, carrying out the necessary pruning to achieve the highest fruit production per unit areaes_ES

dc.description.abstractEl presente trabajo de investigación se realizó sobre “Prácticas de poda en el cultivo de sandía (Citrullus lanatus). Los objetivos planteados fueron: Identificar y caracterizar las mejores prácticas de poda en el cultivo de sandía, y definir la o las mejores prácticas de poda en el cultivo de sandía. La investigación se realizó utilizando la metodología de investigación bibliográfica, levantando toda clase de información técnico-tecnológica tomada de publicaciones, libros, revista, artículos, y sitios web especializados en esta temática. Las técnicas de investigación utilizadas fueron: la lectura inductiva-deductiva, para realizar un diagnóstico general sobre las posibles mejores prácticas de poda en el cultivo de sandía. La información recogida en la investigación fue analizada, sistematizada, y resumida para identificar el problema, sus causas y resultados en relación a las posibles mejores prácticas de poda en el cultivo de sandía, pero siempre sin perder de vista los objetivos de estudio propuestos. Este estudio detectó que la sandía es una de las principales frutas tropicales que tiene gran demanda en el Ecuador; también es uno de los principales cultivos que se siembran y que generan buenos ingresos económicos a las familias productoras de la fruta, pero nos encontramos con la realidad de que los productores, principalmente pequeños y medianos desconocen esta práctica o no saben cómo realizarla, teniendo en consecuencia bajas cosecha y calidad de frutos. Por estas razones la investigación se centra en conocer los diferentes tipos de podas, de formación, fitosanitaria, y de producción, cómo realizarlas y el tratamiento post-poda para no afectar el cultivo y hacer que éste sea más productivo. Encontramos que, principalmente las podas de formación, sanitaria, y de producción, contribuyen a elevar el volumen de las cosechas y la calidad de los frutos. Concluimos sobre lo importante que es realizar las podas en el cultivo de la sandía, y que, por tanto, este cultivo debe atenderse como a cualquier otro cultivo, haciendo buena labranza del suelo, sembrando buenas variedades o híbridos, aplicando una adecuada densidad de siembra, eliminando malezas, fertilizando, haciendo controles de plagas y enfermedades, proveyendo riego y, para nuestro caso, realizando las podas necesarias para alcanzar la mayor producción de frutos por unidad de superficie.es_ES
