ORGANIC MANAGEMENT OF VEGETABLES IN TENOSIQUE, TABASCO, MÉXICO

Abstract

The importance of the use of organic sources in agriculture lies in that they are a source of bacterial life for the soil and are precursors of plant nutrition, they improve their physical condition and increase water retention. Composts and biofertilizer were elaborated in four rural communities of Tenosique, Tabasco, México, using as materials the organic wastes collected in backyards, pasturelands and around the communities, in addition to bioinsecticides from the aqueous extracts of Capsicum chinense Jacq., and Allium cepa L. Training workshops were carried out, obtaining two composts with desirable characteristics, a biofertilizer in 60 days and three bioinsecticides in four days with plant products to control pest organisms.
