ABSTRACT
SEMI-DETACHED STUDY OF SOILS FOR IRRIGATION PURPOSES IN THE
CULTIVATION OF SUGAR CANE (Saccharum officinarum L.) IN PACHONTÉ
FARM, MAZATENANGO, SUCHITEPÉQUEZ.
This document contains the inferential research report carried out at the Pachonté farm
of Ingenio Palo Gordo, Mazatenango, Suchitepéquez. Sugar Cane (Saccharum
officinarum L.) is cultivated on this farm. The research was part of the Supervised
Professional Exercise of the Engineering Degree in Tropical Agronomy at the University
of San Carlos de Guatemala.
The objective of the research was to carry out a semi-detailed study of soils for irrigation
purposes in the cultivation of (Saccharum officinarum L.) in Pachonté farm.
The study identified two different components of the landscape for the location of soil
sampling points, with the samples obtained the soil moisture constants and texture were
determined, this together with the climatic information and water requirements of the
crop in the Pachonté farm allowed to determine areas of the farm that require the same
amount of irrigation water. Soil water infiltration tests were also carried out, which made
it possible to identify areas suitable for irrigation with high and low discharge sprinklers.
With the information obtained, thematic maps were elaborated with the use of a digital
tool of the Geographic Information System (GIS) to identify areas of the Pachonté farm
that require similar management of irrigation before and after cutting sugar cane
(Saccharum officinarum L.).
During the pre-cut irrigation in an area of 391.42 hectares the frequency should be
seven days with a gross sheet of 43.1 millimeters and for the other area with 184.11
hectares the frequency should be five days with a gross sheet of 31 millimeters. While for post-cut irrigation, the irrigation frequency should be teen days, gross sheet of 41.6
millimeters and eight days with gross sheet of 33.2 millimeters respectively.
The irrigation sheets obtained from the study are smaller than those that were applied
before the investigation; This affects the operating time of the issuers available at the
Pachonté farm.
The economic analysis of the study indicates that when irrigating with the data obtained
from it, less irrigation sheet is applied, but more frequently, this results in a reduction of
the cost benefit compared to current management, so the crop must suffer water stress
to maintain the cost benefit ratio. |
