Objetivos: Analizar el efecto del calentamiento global en el retroceso glaciar de la vertiente Suroeste del Nevado Yerupajá, entre dos momentos, la Pequeña Edad de Hielo (PEH) y el año 2016. Metodología: Se emplearon imágenes satelitales del Google Earth, las cuales se cartografiaron y luego se delimitaron los glaciares actuales y los paleo-glaciares; se determinó la altitud de línea de equilibrio (ALE) glaciar y paleo-glaciar mediante el método Área x Altitud Balance Ratio (AABR). La variación de la temperatura del aire registrada por la evolución de los glaciares entre los dos momentos, se calculó mediante el producto ALE paleo-ALE por gradiente térmico vertical medio de la Tierra. Resultados: Se han identificado 25 glaciares actuales, con una superficie de 6,3 km2, y 19 paleo glaciares con 14 km2, reportando una pérdida de 7,7 km2; se obtuvo una ALE de 5246 m y la reconstrucción de la ALE-paleo glaciar de 5106 m, lo que implicó una variación de 140 m desde la PEH hasta el 2016; en ese mismo periodo la variación de temperatura hallada fue de 1,34 °C. Conclusiones: El calentamiento global ha provocado la reducción de más de la mitad de la superficie glaciar de la vertiente Suroeste del Nevado Yerupajá, así como un desnivel de los ALE por un incremento de la temperatura.
The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of inoculating Azospirillum sp. and two levels of nitrogen on the productive characteristics of hard yellow corn variety 'Insignia 800' under the conditions of Nuevo Imperial, Cañete (central coast of Peru). A randomized complete block design with five treatments and four replications was used in a field experiment using the commercial corn hybrid 'Insignia 800'. The treatments were two levels of nitrogen (90 and 180 kg N ha -1 ), plus one or two applications to the foliage of Azospirillum sp. (1.08 x 10 7 CFU per plant), and a control treatment (without inoculation). Ten agronomic variables related to productive traits were evaluated. Treatment comparison was executed with the Scott Knott test at the 5% significance level using the Infostat program. Inoculation with Azospirillum sp. did not significantly affect the grain yield per hectare, grain weight per plot, shelling percentage, grain depth, number of ears per plant and diameter of the cob, but it influenced significantly some productive traits such as cob weight per plot, grain weight per plant, cob diameter and ear length, as well as a high benefit-cost ratio due to inoculation. Inoculating the plant foliage with Azospirillum sp. had a significant effect and greater economic efficiency for some productive characteristics of the hard yellow corn cv. ´Insignia 800´, and did not significantly affect grain yield.
This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of Azospirillum sp. inoculated with different nitrogen levels (0, 60, 90, 180 kg ha-1) on grain yield, yield components and agronomic traits of hybrid maize at the arid conditions of the central coast of Peru. The experimental design used was randomized complete block design with four replications per treatment, under the arrangement of subdivided plots, in which three corn hybrids were assigned to complete plots and four inoculant-N fertilization treatments, to the subplots. The results showed that for dose fertilization of 180 kg ha-1 of nitrogen (control), the grain yield of hybrid corn was similar as compared to 60-120 kg ha-1 N fertilization inoculated at 15 and 45 days with a native strain of Azospirillum sp., suggesting that the response in grain yield for hybrid corn can be balanced with nitrogen fertilization and inoculation with Azospirillum sp. 1x108 CFU mL-1 in conditions of arid soils, with possible impact on the use of this microorganism in the maize production system
El objetivo de la investigación fue evaluar el efecto de tres fuentes orgánicas con tres niveles de aplicación en la producción de papa Yungay (Solanum tuberosum L.) en condiciones de agricultura familiar en la región andina del Perú. Se utilizó el diseño en bloques completos al azar con arreglo factorial de 3 x 3 más un (1) tratamiento adicional (testigo). Se evaluaron número de tallos y tubérculos por planta, rendimiento y categoría extra. El experimento se condujo a 3 425 msnm, en Huari, Ancash, Perú, durante los meses de octubre 2019 a marzo 2020, bajo condiciones de secano. Se observó la superioridad de la media de la factorial sobre el testigo y la interacción entre fuentes orgánicas y niveles de aplicación, sobresaliendo el guano de islas con 5 t ha-1.
