Análisis técnico-económico de la erosión del suelo y su impacto en el bienestar de productores

Abstract

Soil erosion in rural agricultural communities in Mexico and low yields is the subject of the present work, places where production has stopped due to the low profitability and productivity generated by the loss of nutrients as a result of natural phenomena, as well as by the action of man. The objective is to identify the current condition of the soil and its impact on agricultural production, in order to suggest soil improvement and conservation techniques appropriate to regional characteristics, to raise the income level of producers in a rural community of Hidalgo, Mexico. The work is divided into three stages: the first consisted of identifying the predominant agricultural crops; the second, sampling to develop the soil analysis; the third, to evaluate economically the income that currently generates the agricultural activities that are practiced in the community and later to evaluate the changes that could be generated when applying measures of soil conservation; as well as the application of the methodology to identify the profitability and the products.
