| dc.description | This thesis deals with the importance of localized irrigation technology in coastal agriculture in Ecuador, highlighting its importance in a scenario of water shortage and climate change. The main purpose is to establish how this technology maximizes water use and boosts productivity in agriculture, contributing to the sustainability of the industry. A descriptive and analytical approach is used based on a bibliographic review and case analysis in the region. The findings indicate that drip and micro-sprinkler irrigation enables a more efficient use of water, increasing yields by up to 30% compared to conventional techniques such as flood irrigation. This efficiency benefits agricultural producers by reducing operational costs and encouraging a more conscious use of aquatic resources. The conclusions underline that, despite the high initial investment in river systems with high localization, the long-term advantages, such as increased crop quality and increased profitability, support its implementation. Additionally, it is proposed that training farmers and implementing support policies are essential to promote the use of these technologies. In conclusion, the implementation of localized irrigation emerges as an essential tactic to address the challenges present in agriculture on the Ecuadorian coast, ensuring a more sustainable and productive growth in the agricultural industry. Finally, it is crucial to promote studies that examine the economic effect of the application of localized irrigation technologies in various types of crops. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El presente trabajo se trata sobre la importancia y conjunto de técnicas de riego localizado en la costa ecuatoriana, recalcando su importancia en un escenario de falta de agua y cambio climático. El propósito principal es establecer cómo esta tecnología maximiza la utilización del agua y potencia la productividad en la agricultura, aportando a la sostenibilidad de la industria. Se utiliza un enfoque descriptivo y analítico fundamentado en la revisión bibliográfica y análisis de casos en la región. Los hallazgos señalan que el riego por goteo y microaspersión posibilita una utilización más eficaz del agua, elevando las cosechas hasta un 30% en comparación con técnicas convencionales como el riego por inundación. Esta eficacia favorece a los productores agrícolas. A disminuir los gastos operacionales y fomenta un uso más consciente de los recursos acuáticos. Las conclusiones subrayan que, pese a la alta inversión inicial en sistemas de río con alta localización, las ventajas a largo plazo, como el incremento en la calidad de los cultivos y el incremento en la rentabilidad, respaldan su implementación. Adicionalmente, se propone que la formación de los agricultores y la puesta en marcha de políticas de apoyo son esenciales para promover la utilización de estas tecnologías. En conclusión, la implementación del riego localizado emerge como una táctica esencial para abordar los retos presentes en la agricultura de la costa ecuatoriana, asegurando un crecimiento más sostenible y productivo en la industria agrícola. Finalmente, resulta crucial impulsar estudios que examinen el efecto económico de la aplicación de tecnologías de riego localizado en diversas clases de cultivos. | es_ES |
