Manejo agronómico del cultivo de rábanos (Rhapanus sativus) mediante hidroponía en el Ecuador

The research deals with the agronomic management of the cultivation of radishes (Rhapanus sativus) using hydroponics in Ecuador. The conclusions determined that hydroponic crops are based on the technique of dispensing with soil in favor of an aqueous solution enriched with nutrients, among other available options. Due to its low demand for resources, it is positioned as a more sustainable alternative compared to conventional agriculture. Hydroponics refers to the practice of soilless agriculture, in which plants are grown using mineral solutions. This technique is based on scientific principles and has emerged as an easy way to earn sustenance. To establish a hydroponic radish nursery, radish seeds are placed at a depth of 2 to 3 cm in selected trays and evenly covered with some inert substrate. Subsequently, create several furrows at suitable intervals for each seed, place the seeds accordingly and proceed to cover them once again. The Hydroponic Nutrient Solution comprises a mixture of different fertilizers that, when solubilized in water, allow the chemical elements they contain to ionize and, consequently, be efficiently assimilated by the roots of the plants. In the field of pest management, the arrangement of yellow and blue sticky traps represents an outstanding resource for the detection and monitoring of insects and harmful organisms. Sticky traps work similar to fly paper by capturing insects using an adhesive substance. It allows producing in greater quantities with crops free of pests and diseases without contamination from pesticides
