| dc.description | The project focused on conducting a bibliographic analysis of ancestral soil and water management strategies used by farmers in tropical America. The main objective is to compile and analyze existing information on these traditional practices in order to understand their relevance, effectiveness and potential for sustainable agriculture. The exhaustive review of scientific literature, previous studies and other relevant documents on the subject, where the results and conclusions found were analyzed and synthesized, identifying the main strategies and techniques used by ancestral farmers. One of the main findings of this project was the diversity of strategies used by farmers in tropical America. These strategies include intercropping, crop rotation, use of organic fertilizers and water management through traditional irrigation systems. It was found that these strategies not only improve agricultural productivity, but also contribute to soil and water conservation, thus reducing the environmental impact of agriculture. In addition, a mapping of farming communities in Tropical America that still maintain these traditional practices was carried out. These ancestral strategies have proven to be effective in ensuring sustainable agricultural productivity and soil and water conservation. However, there are still challenges that need to be addressed to promote the widespread adoption of these strategies and ensure the sustainability of agriculture in tropical America. The outcome of the project is a detailed report that presents ancestral soil and water management strategies, highlighting their cultural, social and environmental importance. Recommendations are included for their promotion and adoption in modern agriculture, considering their benefits in terms of sustainability, resilience and conservation of natural resources | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El proyecto se enfocó en realizar un análisis bibliográfico de las estrategias ancestrales de manejo de suelos y aguas utilizadas por los agricultores de América Tropical. El objetivo principal es recopilar y analizar la información existente sobre estas prácticas tradicionales, con el fin de comprender su relevancia, eficacia y potencial para la agricultura sostenible. La revisión exhaustiva de la literatura científica, estudios previos y otros documentos relevantes sobre el tema, donde se analizó y sintetizo los resultados y conclusiones encontrados, identificando las principales estrategias y técnicas utilizadas por los agricultores ancestrales. Uno de los principales hallazgos de este proyecto fue la diversidad de estrategias utilizadas por los agricultores en América tropical. Estas estrategias incluyen el cultivo intercalado, la rotación de cultivos, el uso de abonos orgánicos y el manejo del agua a través de sistemas de riego tradicionales. Se encontró que estas estrategias no solo mejoran la productividad agrícola, sino que también contribuyen a la conservación del suelo y el agua, reduciendo así el impacto ambiental de la agricultura. Además, se llevó a cabo un mapeo de las comunidades agrícolas en América Tropical que aún mantienen estas prácticas tradicionales. Estas estrategias ancestrales han demostrado ser efectivas para garantizar la productividad agrícola sostenible y la conservación del suelo y el agua. Sin embargo, aún existen desafíos que deben abordarse para promover la adopción generalizada de estas estrategias y garantizar la sostenibilidad de la agricultura en América tropical. El resultado del proyecto es un informe detallado que presenta las estrategias ancestrales de manejo de suelos y aguas, destacando su importancia cultural, social y ambiental. Se incluyen recomendaciones para su promoción y adopción en la agricultura moderna, considerando sus beneficios en términos de sostenibilidad, resiliencia y conservación de los recursos naturales. | es_ES |
