Physicochemical soil quality of silvopastoral system for forest resource management in Canoa, San Vicente, Ecuador
This article evaluates the physicochemical quality of silvopastoral soils at “La Florida” farm, located in Canoa parish, Ecuador, with the aim of proposing a sustainable forest management model. Soil analyses showed bulk density between 0.91 and 0.93 g/cm³ and porosity above 60 %, which are optimal...

| description | This article evaluates the physicochemical quality of silvopastoral soils at “La Florida” farm, located in Canoa parish, Ecuador, with the aim of proposing a sustainable forest management model. Soil analyses showed bulk density between 0.91 and 0.93 g/cm³ and porosity above 60 %, which are optimal conditions for root development. The pH ranged from 6.6 to 7.5, indicating slightly acidic to neutral soils, while organic matter reached up to 4.9 %. Organic carbon content varied from 1.74 to 2.90 %, and total nitrogen from 0.15 to 0.25 %, with a C/N ratio of 11.5, suggesting rapid mineralization. Areas with lower fertility and reduced phosphorus availability (27 mEq/ml) were identified as degraded zones mainly due to overgrazing. The forest inventory highlighted species with significant biomass and carbon storage contributions, such as Samanea saman and Prosopis juliflora. The proposed model integrates agroforestry techniques, crop rotation, controlled grazing, climate monitoring, and mechanisms like REDD+ to conserve biodiversity, improve agricultural productivity, and mitigate climate change. |

Los análisis revelaron densidad aparente entre 0,91 y 0,93 g/cm³ y porosidad superior al 60 %, condiciones óptimas para el desarrollo radicular. El pH varió de 6,6 a 7,5, indicando suelos ligeramente ácidos a neutros, mientras que la materia orgánica alcanzó hasta 4,9 %. El contenido de carbono orgánico osciló entre 1,7 y 2,9 % y el nitrógeno total entre 0,15 y 0,25 %, con una relación C/N de 11,5, lo que sugiere una rápida mineralización. Se identificaron áreas con menor fertilidad y menor fósforo disponible (27 mEq/ml), evidenciando zonas de degradación por sobrepastoreo. El inventario forestal registró especies de alto aporte de biomasa y captura de carbono como Samanea saman y Prosopis juliflora. El modelo propuesto integra prácticas agroforestales, rotación de cultivos, pastoreo controlado, monitoreo climático e inclusión de mecanismos como REDD+, con el fin de conservar la biodiversidad, mejorar la productividad agrícola y mitigar el cambio climático.Universidad Técnica Estatal de Quevedo2026-01-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.uteq.edu.ec/index.php/cyt/article/view/118210.18779/cyt.v19i1.1182Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 19 No. 1 (2026): Science and Technology Journal; 63-75Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 19 Núm. 1 (2026): Revista Ciencia y Tecnología; 63-75Ciencia y Tecnología; v. 19 n. 1 (2026): Revista Ciência e Tecnologia; 63-751390-40431390-405110.18779/cyt.v19i1reponame:Revista Ciencia y Tecnologíainstname:Universidad Técnica Estatal de Quevedoinstacron:UTEQspahttps://revistas.uteq.edu.ec/index.php/cyt/article/view/1182/1169https://revistas.uteq.edu.ec/index.php/cyt/article/view/1182/1170Derechos de autor 2026 relis Stefania Cevallos Vera, Carlos Josué Muñoz Zambrano, José Manuel Calderón Pincayhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2026-01-14T17:07:18Zoai:revistas.uteq.edu.ec:article/1182Portal de revistashttps://revistas.uteq.edu.ec/index.php/cytUniversidad públicahttps://www.uteq.edu.ecEcuadorCiencia y tecnología1390-40431390-4043opendoar:2026-01-14T17:07:18falsePortal de revistashttps://revistas.uteq.edu.ec/index.php/cytUniversidad públicahttps://www.uteq.edu.ecEcuadorCiencia y tecnología1390-40431390-4043opendoar:2026-01-14T17:07:18Revista Ciencia y Tecnología - Universidad Técnica Estatal de Quevedofalse |
