| dc.description | This project analyzes the importance of the use of organic and inorganic fertilizers in the cultivation of jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), a highly nutritious tropical fruit of growing relevance in international markets. The research is carried out in the province of Los Ríos, Ecuador, where this crop shows growing commercial potential. A literature review methodology was used, collecting information on the advantages and disadvantages of each type of fertilization. Organic fertilizers, such as compost and manure, improve soil structure, promote biodiversity and raise the nutritional quality of the fruit; However, its availability is limited and its effect is slower. In contrast, inorganic fertilizers, such as urea and phosphates, increase productivity in the short term, but their excessive use can cause soil degradation and water pollution. The results suggest that a balanced combination of both fertilizers represents the best strategy to maximize production without compromising environmental sustainability. It is concluded that it is essential to promote local research and training programs that allow farmers to adopt optimal fertilization practices. Likewise, the importance of jackfruit cultivation is highlighted as a viable alternative to diversify agricultural production in Ecuador, strengthening food security and promoting a sustainable development approach in agriculture. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El presente proyecto analiza la importancia del uso de fertilizantes orgánicos e inorgánicos en el cultivo de jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), una fruta tropical altamente nutritiva y de creciente relevancia en mercados internacionales. La investigación se desarrolla en la provincia de Los Ríos, Ecuador, donde este cultivo muestra un creciente potencial comercial. Se utilizó una metodología de revisión bibliográfica, recopilando información sobre las ventajas y desventajas de cada tipo de fertilización. Los fertilizantes orgánicos, como compost y estiércol, mejoran la estructura del suelo, fomentan la biodiversidad y elevan la calidad nutricional del fruto; sin embargo, su disponibilidad es limitada y su efecto más lento. En contraste, los fertilizantes inorgánicos, como la urea y los fosfatos, aumentan la productividad a corto plazo, pero su uso excesivo puede causar degradación del suelo y contaminación del agua. Los resultados sugieren que una combinación equilibrada de ambos fertilizantes representa la mejor estrategia para maximizar la producción sin comprometer la sostenibilidad ambiental. Se concluye que es esencial fomentar investigaciones locales y programas de capacitación que permitan a los agricultores adoptar prácticas de fertilización óptimas. El cultivo de jackfruit representa una alternativa viable para diversificar la producción agrícola en Ecuador, fortaleciendo la seguridad alimentaria y promoviendo un enfoque de desarrollo sostenible en la agricultura. Asimismo, se destaca la importancia del cultivo de jackfruit como una alternativa viable para diversificar la producción agrícola en Ecuador, fortaleciendo la seguridad alimentaria y promoviendo un enfoque de desarrollo sostenible en la agricultura. | es_ES |
