Agroecology Research Topic Design and experiment of a bioferment to increase the nutrient of soil fertility and sustainability of productions, form the 30 th of September until 30th November,2011 Edder David Jarqun The education is the best option for the development of the people

OBJECTIVE
Specific

General
Develop and test the statement of the bioferment to increase the nutrient of soil fertility and sustainable of production.

Design a methodology for the preparation of bio-fertilizers to increase production and soil fertility Determine the time of the evaporation of the bioferment for the application on soul and crops.

Evaluate the physical characteristics (color and smell) and chemistries (pH) of the bioferment as quality indicators.

PROBLEMATICAL
The use of inorganic fertilizers has a great effect on the environment. In addition to the excessive use of inorganic fertilizers you can change the quality of the biosphere soil and river water around cultivated fields. The use of inorganic fertilizers, when their applications are excessive and proper procedures also helps to cause damage.

IMPORTANCE OF THE BIOFERMENT

It is important because the development of bio-ferment is an alternative that can be used in our region, to return or replace nutrients through foliar biofertilizers and organic liquid fertilizers that are based fermented made fermented organic waste acts as a foliar fertilizer. Some features of repellents and fungicide foliar nutrients as sources of macro-and micro-containing organic compounds balanced.

THE BIOFERMENT
As Rostran, 2005 the bio-fertilizers, liquid fertilizers are super high energy balanced and in harmony mineral, prepared from very fresh cow dung, dissolved in water and enriched with milk, bundle sweet and ash, which is placed to ferment for several days in plastic tanks under an anaerobic (without the presence of oxygen) and sometimes flour enriched with crushed rock or some mineral salts such as magnesium sulfate, zinc, copper, etc.
Features:

Has a scent to ferment pleasant.

Is a cheap product. Is a foliar fertilizers with multi minerals.

Is safe use.
Its manufacture is easy. Has high microbial activity.

The bio-fermentation

Microorganisms transform organic materials, such as dung, the serum, milk, sugar cane juice or fruit, the straws and the ashes, and produce vitamins, acids and complex minerals that are essential to the metabolism and perfect nutritional balance of the plant. (Ferruffino, f. 2007)

Environmental benefits
Avoids or reduces the contamination of soils and groundwater, rivers and streams by synthetic fertilizers. Used waste as manure, not available properly, could contaminate the environment.

The bioferment contributes to the conservation of biodiversity, because the beneficial microorganisms that troop-contributing help to restore the natural balance in the agroecosystem. (Delgado,G.2010)

Socio-economic benefits
Lessens dependence on synthetic fertilizers. The bioferment can be used both in conventional agriculture as organic. To replace synthetic fertilizers by bioferment, there is a cost savings.

Crop productivity can be maintained or increased.

The bioferment are a complement to organic fertilizers and bio-pesticides and together with those help to give good use resources available in the farm.

By the low cost of their materials, are an option to improve the profitability of the farm.

Method of Materials
Type of study.
The study is descriptive, qualitative-quantitative part.

Description of the variables.

Methodology for preparation of bioferment

Time it takes for fermentation.

Smell and color of the bioferment at the end of the fermentation.

Ph before and after the period of the fermentation.

The basic quantities that are used to prepare each ingredient up to 4 liters of bio-fertilizers are:
Ingredients Quantities

Water
Milk (or buttermilk) Tied up of sweet Cow dung very fresh Ash firewood

Remaining
1/2 liters 2 pounds 1/2 pounds 1/4pound

Tools:
Quantities 1 Tools Gallon plastic with a capacity of 4 liters hermetically sealed. Glue poximil. Hose long by 1 / 2 inch thick. plastic bottle Wire or rope Container to dissolve the sweet and ash

1 10 cm 1 10 cm 1

Preparation:
N 1 2 3 4 5 6 Procedure Is deposited manure within the container Water is added up to half of the gallon and stir heavily. Dissolves sweet water with milk One adds the ash dissolved in water Continues stirring and supplementing the water that was missing to get the 4 liters of Preparation. (You revolve at least 20 minutes). Finished the preparation closes the gallon by ensuring that the lid will not be able to open it easily, which previously you must open a dimple where you will get a valve from one end the hose locking it well with the glue. The other end of the hose gets in a bottle that should be filled with water which is fixed to the gallon either fastens with a wire or rope. Is left to ferment anaerobically (without oxygen) in a place where there isn't too much light (shade)

Analysis and interpretation of results.

Shall be effected by means of direct observation, to determine the time it takes for fermentation to the fertilizer you are ready to implement it, and describe the color and smell that will have the bio-ferment for determining quality. And with the use of the Microsoft Excel program for the realization of the graphics to determine the variation of the pH.
