Evaluación de procesos de adopción de nuevas tecnologías frente a los fenómenos de variabilidad climática en la zona cafetera, vereda La Yunga, municipio de Popayán - Cauca.

Abstract

Con el objetivo de evaluar procesos de adopción de nuevas tecnologías en la zona cafetera, Vereda La Yunga, Municipio de Popayán, Cauca frente a los fenómenos de variabilidad climática se realizaron recorridos en los predios y encuestas a 20 agricultores cafeteros. Para la evaluación en campo se realizó visitas y recorridos en 20 fincas de la Vereda, donde a cada uno de los agricultores se le hizo su respectiva encuesta, la cual permitió evaluar seis variables: cambio de variedad, capacidad de riego, nivel de escorrentía, fragilidad ambiental, áreas erosionadas y por último rotación cultivos transitorios. Los resultados se analizaron mediante el método del Biograma y sistema de semáforo. Donde el valor de cada indicador vario entre 0 y 1, siendo 0 el nivel mínimo de desempeño y 1 el de máximo desempeño. La variable capacidad de riego no represento escala numérica, pero fue motivo de análisis. Para el análisis se seleccionaron 5 fincas de las 20, donde en general arrojó que el nivel de escorrentía es el de menor desempeño con un valor de 0,23, donde se hace necesario mejorar las prácticas agrícolas para afrontar los fenómenos de variabilidad climática y el de mayor valor fue rotación de cultivos transitorios con 0,63, indicando un desempeño medio, situación que conlleva a completar las actividades del agricultor para mitigar los fenómenos del ´´niño´´ y la ´´niña´´.

In order to evaluate processes of adoption of new technologies in the coffee zone, Vereda La Yunga, municipality of Popayan, Cauca against the phenomena of climate variability journeys were made on the premises and surveys of 20 coffee farmers. For the evaluation field visits and tours will be conducted in 20 farms in the village of where each of the farmers was made the respective survey, which allowed us to evaluate six variables: change in variety, irrigation capacity, level of runoff, environmental fragility, eroded areas and finally transient rotation crops. The results were analyzed by the method of Biograma and traffic light system. Where the value of each indicator varied between 0 and 1, where 0 is the minimum level of performance, 1 the maximum performance . The variable capacity not represent numerical scale irrigation, but was the subject of analysis. To analyze five of the 20 farms, which in general showed that the runoff level is the lowest performance with a value of 0.23, where it is necessary to improve agricultural practices to address the phenomena of climate variability and selected higher value was transient crop rotation with 0.63, indicating an average performance, a situation that leads to complete the activities of the farmer to mitigate the phenomena of‟‟niño‟‟ and‟‟niña‟‟.
