3.3 Experienced high-risk times (during the year)

Which are high-risk times during the year and why? (E.g. in terms of growing season):

La cosecha de la presente temporada esta en alto riesgo de disminuir calidad y cantidad,influido por aumento de la temperatura y disminución de la precipitación.
Las nuevas plantaciones se encuentran en alto riesgo de perderse por falta de agua y alta temperatura.
Alto riesgo de perdida del cultivo por aumento de plagas y enfermedades.

5.2 Weaknesses/ disadvantages/ risks of the Technology and ways of overcoming them

Weaknesses/ disadvantages/ risks How can they be overcome?
Desventajas: En este caso el sistema cuentan, con los dos primeros filtros (gemelos) con poca capacidad.
Alguno de los materiales como piedra volcánicas y piedrin no son propios de la zona.
Aumentando la capacidad de resepcion de los primeros dos filtros del sistema.
Juntarse con otros usuarios de la tierra que tengan el sistema para comprar en conjunto.
Riesgos . Al disminuir la cantidad de agua se puede dejar de usar el sistema. promover cosechas de agua en la finca y reutilizarlo del agua en labores del beneficiado húmedo del café.
