dc.description | Agriculture in pre-Hispanic people dates back approximately three millennia. Since then, communities such as the Incas and the Cañaris have developed traditional and sustainable agricultural methods, such as careful soil management, the use of terraces for planting and irrigation techniques. These practices, in harmony with nature, allowed the cultivation of fundamental foods such as corn, quinoa and potatoes. In Ecuador, with a rich agricultural heritage with pre-Hispanic roots, the evolution of agricultural techniques has been a dynamic process. Over the centuries, conventional agriculture has been the predominant method, developed locally through empirical experience. However, this approach has gradually led to a reflection on biodiversity and negative environmental impacts, especially as the population has grown and food demands have increased. In response to these challenges, significant improvements have been implemented towards more sustainable agriculture. Agroecological practices, which seek to recover and conserve soils, diversify crops and reduce the use of agrochemicals, have gained momentum. In addition, sustainable technologies, such as efficient irrigation systems and the use of renewable energy, have been promoted to mitigate environmental impact. These improvements seek to promote more equitable, efficient and environmentally friendly agricultural practices, benefiting both agricultural communities and the ecosystem as a whole. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | La agricultura en los pueblos prehispánicos se remonta aproximadamente a tres milenios atrás. Desde entonces, comunidades como los incas y los cañaris han desarrollado métodos agrícolas tradicionales y sustentables, como el cuidadoso manejo del suelo, la utilización de terrazas para la siembra y técnicas de riego. Estas prácticas, en armonía con la naturaleza, permitieron el cultivo de alimentos fundamentales como el maíz, la quinua y la papa. En Ecuador, con una rica herencia agrícola de raíces prehispánicas, la evolución de las técnicas agrícolas ha sido un proceso dinámico. A lo largo de los siglos, la agricultura convencional ha sido el método predominante, desarrollado localmente a través de la experiencia empírica. Sin embargo, este enfoque ha llevado gradualmente a una reflexión sobre la biodiversidad y los impactos ambientales negativos, especialmente a medida que la población creció y las demandas alimentarias aumentaron. En respuesta a estos desafíos, se han implementado mejoras significativas hacia una agricultura más sustentable. Las prácticas agroecológicas, que buscan recuperar y conservar los suelos, diversificar los cultivos y reducir el uso de agroquímicos, han ganado impulso. Además, se han promovido tecnologías sustentables, como sistemas de riego eficientes y el uso de energías renovables, para mitigar el impacto ambiental. Estas mejoras buscan fomentar prácticas agrícolas más equitativas, eficientes y respetuosas con el medio ambiente, beneficiando tanto a las comunidades agrícolas como al ecosistema en su conjunto. | es_ES |
