| dc.description | This document details the Problem of Agrochemicals in Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) plantations in Ecuador, referring to the fact that in our country, cocoa cultivation and its production is strongly affected by limiting factors such as traditional growers not contemporary with modern agricultural practices, a variable climate due to “global warming, old crops, susceptible varieties, and a high presence of pests and diseases specific to this type of crop. Regarding the methods of prevention and control of insects and diseases, prevention is not carried out, but there is a high use of chemical control, with the consequent environmental damage and the health of producers and field workers. In addition, there are few who are aware of this situation, carry out mechanical, biological, and/or integrated insect and disease control activities. Together, it is necessary to recommend to cocoa producers that before using control methodologies for insects and diseases, identify the possible insect and fungal pests that could exist in the cocoa plantation, determine the economic impact of possible damage, and define the methods of prevention and control, including: cultural, mechanical, biological control and, as a last resort, chemical control and/or integrated control of pests and diseases, and carry out other educational or experimental research work on this broad subject of pest and disease control in the cocoa cultivation in Ecuador. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El presente documento detalla sobre la Problemática de los Agroquímicos en las plantaciones de Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) de Ecuador, haciendo referencia que en nuestro país, el cultivo de cacao y su producción está fuertemente afectada por factores limitantes como son los cultivadores tradicionales no contemporáneos con las modernas prácticas agrícolas, clima variable por el “calentamiento global, cultivos viejos, variedades susceptibles, y alta presencia de plagas y enfermedades específicas de esta clase de cultivo. En cuanto a los métodos de prevención y control de insectos y enfermedades, no se realiza prevención, sino que hay una alta utilización del control químico, con los consecuentes daños ambientales y de la misma salud de los productores y trabajadores de campo. Además son pocos, quienes conscientes de esta situación, realizan actividades de control mecánico, biológico, y/o de control integrado de insectos y enfermedades. Conjuntamente es necesario recomendar a los productores cacaoteros que antes de utilizar metodologías de control para insectos y enfermedades, identificar las posibles plagas insectiles y fúngicas que pudieran existir en la plantación de cacao, determinar el impacto económico por un posible daño, y definir los métodos de prevención y control, que incluyan: control cultural, mecánico, biológico y como último recurso, control químico y/o control integrado de plagas y enfermedades y realizar otros trabajos de investigación formativa o experimental sobre este amplio tema de control de plagas y enfermedades en el cultivo de cacao en Ecuador | es_ES |
