In the field of research and consequent elaboration of biopolymers it has been growing in the last decade, either due to the hardening of the environmental legislation of each country or due to ecological awareness, in any case the term biopolymer is quite broad, these being used as material premium in medicines, food supplements and of course in the production of bioplastics. Since the topic of interest is the comparative characterization of biopolymers using starch extracted from two different cereals, oats and rice, using the alkaline technique with NaOH treatment and the milling technique, assuming that the starch extracted from the Oryza sativa cereal presents chemical characteristics, geometric and mechanical superior in both techniques used unlike the polymers made with Avena sativa starch. These results suggest that the starch quality of each cereal is relevant for the production of biopolymers [1]. The commercially significant properties of starch, such as its mechanical strength and flexibility, depend on the strength and character of the crystalline region, which depends on the ratio of amylose and amylopectin.

The experiment was conducted from May to August 2018 at the Technological University of the Southwest of Guanajuato (UTSOE) in a randomized complete block design with three repetitions, in greenhouse 1 of 700 m2 of the Sustainable and Protected Agriculture Career; with the purpose of evaluating the effect of three levels of thinning of fruits, with four, five fruits and without thinning, in the yield and plant variables in seven varieties of saladette tomato produced under greenhouse and in hydroponic substrate. The varieties evaluated were: Natalie, USATX 12227, USATX 9934, Juan Pablo, USATX 24019, USATX 16117, USATX 15538, all established at a density of 31,250 plants per hectare. The thinning levels of four and five fruits per cluster had a positive influence on tomato yield, on treatments without thinning, the Natalie and Juan Pablo varieties being the ones with the highest yield, after three weeks of harvest. Regarding the number of leaves, despite finding statistical differences (p≤ 0.01), the thinning of fruits did not necessarily influence the development of leaves, but rather was due to the genetics of each variety, the USATX 24019 variety being the that more leaves developed.

The objective of this project was to carry out an analysis of the indoor climate of the greenhouse located in the Valle de Santiago region, Guanajuato. It is a zenith-type greenhouse with two wings with a symmetrical face. An orthogonal mesh was made of 50 nodes (25 nodes for each height) Total Den located in the cultivable area and taking the value at the midpoint of each rectangle considering two heights 0.25m and 1.30m with respect to the ground. Humidity and temperature readings were taken in each of the nodes for three weeks and subsequently a data analysis was made and a comparison with the data collected in the different situations; also the temperature was analyzed with the double sum of Riemann and the rule of the middle point. In conclusion, it was determined that the greenhouse yields heat on warm days, while it receives heat on cold days. This behavior coincides with previous studies; however, it occurs that with the hydroponic method there is a greater growth of the crop.

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), is one of the most important vegetables that supports food and nutritional security. One of the various forms that is offered is in cluster, also known as ToV, being one of the specialties of the tomato ball. The disadvantage is the visual quality (the homogeneous color) that determines the level of consumer acceptance and the foreign market, as well as the consumption time. Due to this, the effect of two spray techniques (mopping and touch) in postharvest on the ToV fruits grown in the greenhouse was evaluated. This to favor the homogeneity of color; using bioregulators: A) 2-cloroethyl phosphonic acid y B) K2O 20%. in three concentrations [A (T1= 7.2 ppm, T2= 12 ppm y T3= 120 ppm, T4= control H2O); B (T1= 66 ppm, T2= 550 ppm, T3= 715 ppm, T4= control H2O)] under a complete randomized design with three repetitions to two observations (initial - final) during seven days. The results were subjected to post hoc comparisons, for which the weight variable in both bioregulators did not show statistical effect; however, in the color variable, the spraying techniques showed statistical differences with respect to the control. Therefore, it is concluded that the use of bioregulators in post-harvest is a solution to the color homogeneity of the ToV tomato.
