Usos de suelo en el aprovechamiento de sus recursos naturales en la microcuenca del río Carrizal (Azucena arriba- Balsa en medio)

This paper sought to determine the use of the soil, exploitation of natural resources and the matrix and main productive communities of Balsa en Medio and the Azucena Arriba, generating information for the current territorial status and dynamics over time. This research is based on identifying the use of the soil through a diagnosis that allows the suitable used, providing effective solutions, giving priority to the management of natural resources and therefore prolong and preserve the characteristics of the soil. The methods used were techniques for mapping geographic location, satellite, 2011 land use maps, GPS, and the implementation of surveys to the inhabitants of the communities studied, which made possible to determined that the growth and agricultural, and social development originate changes in the soil, managing to diagnose that the virgin forests have reduced approximately 85 hectares and finally that planting indiscriminately has been made. Knowing the main factors that cause damage and that are on the rise, due to the needs of the population additionally causes collateral damage to the ecosystems present in the territory and that they gradually destroy the Earth and make it increasingly more infertile. It is necessary to educate the population, instructing them with farming techniques for them to contribute to soil conservation and to manage the territorial expansion therefore avoiding the early loss of natural resources present in the área.
