2. Description of the SLM Technology
2.1 Short description of the Technology
Definition of the Technology:
Reforestación activa y pasiva gracias a la plantación de especies arbóreas y a la exclusión de pastoreo en el area. Esta tecnología se diseña e implementa con el objetivo de proteger las zonas de recarga del acuífero del Municipio de Morroa, Sucre, Colombia.
2.2 Detailed description of the Technology
Description:
La Reforestación Protectora consiste del diseño, implementación y mantenimiento de 150 ha de plantaciones forestales con exclusión de pastoreo, en areas que se consideran de recarga del acuífero de Municipio de Morroa, Sucre, Colombia. La tecnología fue implementada en los municipios de Morroa, Colosó, Chalán y Toluviejo, donde se generó un cambio en el uso de la tierra de ganadería extensiva a áreas forestales y agroforestales.
Para la evaluación y documentación de esta tecnología se escogió la Finca Pasatedelargo, donde se realizó una siembra con xx arboles de especies forestales nativas en remplazando asi la actividad de ganadería extensiva practicada durante más de 20 años.
Se han implementado las siguientes prácticas de MST.
Siembra de especies forestales.
Instalación de cercas vivas.
Incorporación de abonos y residuos orgánicos.
Reposo total de la tierra, no pastoreo, no labranza.

La Humedad aprovechable del suelo aumenta considerablemente en el sistema forestal. Este dato se obtiene con el análisis de laboratorio de la retención de humedad del suelo, por la diferencia entre la capacidad de campo y el punto de marchitez. Se comparó la parcela con MST con una parcela de suelo similar, sin MST.

Quantity after SLM:
DA: 1,16 g/cc; porosidad: 50%
Comments/ specify:
Según los análisis de laboratorio realizados sobre la parcela con MST en comparación con un terreno similar, sin MST, se observó una menor compactación, traducida por una menor densidad aparente y una mayor porosidad.

Quantity before SLM:
MO: 2,33 g/100g (medio)
Quantity after SLM:
MO: 2,27 g/100g (medio)
Comments/ specify:
Según los análisis de laboratorio realizados sobre la parcela con MST en comparación con un terreno similar, sin MST, se observó una Materia Orgánica (Walkley Black) equivalente, debido al poco tiempo de implementación del proyecto. La materia orgánica está en un nivel medio pero se ve afectada por las condiciones físicas del suelo.
Biodiversity: vegetation, animals
Vegetation cover
Quantity before SLM:
30% tierras desnudas
Quantity after SLM:
0% tierras desnudas
Comments/ specify:
El suelo ya no presenta áreas descubiertas de vegetación en esta parcela. Tomando el dato de las imágenes aéreas del año 2014, en comparación con las del año 2018 en la misma época del año, se midió una disminución de 30% del área de tierras desnudas y degradadas. Se midió igualmente un aumento de 12% de arboles plantados y bosque ripario, así como un aumento de 13% de los pastos limpios. Ver diagrama en las ilustraciones de la tecnología.
