Análisis de la Eficiencia de los Microorganismos de Montaña en el Cultivo de Repollo (Brassica Oleracea var. capitata) en la Vereda Soagá, Finca los Pinos(Ubaté-Cundinamarca)

Abstract

Mountain microorganisms [MM] can be found in the surface layer of soils in a natural ecosystem such as forests, moors, and places where synthetic fertilizers have not been used. The use of these microorganisms makes it possible to improve the physicochemical characteristics of the soil and optimize the development of plants, and their addition in microbial preparations has been implemented in agricultural activities all over the world. The objective of this work was to analyze the efficiency of mountain microorganisms in a cabbage vegetable crop (Brassica oleracea var. Capitata) in the village Soagá farm “Los Pinos” (Ubaté-Cundinamarca). The MM were obtained under the methodology of Martinez et al., (2014) and for the planting of the vegetable the grid division technique was used. The addition of MM in the cabbage crop showed good results from the first sprouts of the seeds as well as a better development each growth phase compared to the control section. It can be concluded that the MM positively influences the vegetable, obtaining an improvement in the organoleptic characteristics such as size and texture, demonstrating the effectiveness of organic fertilizer to improve soil characteristics and optimize plant development, in addition to present itself as a sustainable agriculture alternative. And finally, the potential demand for the biofertilizer was estimated by farmers in the villages of Soagá and Chirquin, where a favorable response to its use was obtained.
