In the land user's point of view, is there a threshold (in view of frequency and/ or severity of the gradual climate changes or climate-related extremes), which leads to the failure of the Technology?

no

2.3 Experienced climate-related extremes (disasters)

Has the Technology been exposed to climate-related extremes (disasters) in the last 10 years or more?

No

3. Sensitivity (risks and potentials)

3.1 Land degradation types and related sensitivity of the Technology

Table 1: Reassessment of land degradation types listed in QT Core 3.7
Gradual climate change/ climate-related extreme (disaster) Land degradation type addressed by the Technology listed in QT Core 3.7 Sensitivity of the Technology to land degradation type Specify/ comments

annual rainfall

Bq: quantity/ biomass decline unfavourable influence
Table 2: Assessment of newly occurring land degradation types
Gradual climate change/ climate-related extreme (disaster) Land degradation type newly occurring due to gradual climate change/ climate-related extreme (disaster) Sensitivity of the Technology to land degradation type Specify/ comments
no aplica a degradación de suelo, porque la tecnología contribuye a reducir el consumo de leña

3.2 On- and off-site impacts of the Technology under gradual climate changes and climate-related extremes (disasters)

Socio-economic impacts (on-site)

Production
Name of gradual climate change/ climate-related extreme Impact Extent

annual rainfall

Other socio-economic impacts
Name of gradual climate change/ climate-related extreme Impact Extent

annual rainfall

Off-site impacts

Comments regarding the impact assessment:

La tecnología evaluada no genera impacto negativo en base al cambio climático, al momento d trabajar con el usuario de la tierra la herramienta no se ajusta a esta tecnología.

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):

el riesgo determinado en aspecto social, es que el usuario de la tierra no adopte la tecnología , tiende a modificar el diseño y por ende no se logra el impacto esperado en base a la reducir del consumo de leña.

4. Adaptive capacity

4.1 Modification of Technology

Has the Technology been modified to adapt/ further adapt to gradual climate changes and climate-related extremes (disasters)?
  • No. If no, continue with chapter 4.7.
Comments:

en la tecnología no se hizo ninguna modificación de adaptación, se recomienda buen uso y manejo de la tecnología, para promover el ahorro de leña y complementar con utilizar los restos de poda del café y manejo de sombra.

4.2 Success of adaptation measures

Have the adaptation measures been successful?

No

Specify why yes/ no:

no porque aun no se hizo medida de adaptación.

4.4 Motivation to apply adaptation measures

By whom/ what were (the) land user(s) motivated or inspired to apply these adaptation measures?
  • land user(s) alone (self-initiative)
  • other land user(s)
  • mainly land user(s) but supported by SLM specialist(s)
  • mainly input from SLM specialist(s)
  • only SLM specialist(s)
  • media, other communication channels
If SLM specialists were involved, were these from:
  • agricultural advisory services
  • research
  • projects and programmes of development cooperation/ international organizations
Comments:

no se tomo ninguna medida

4.5 Technical training on adaptation measures

Did the land user(s) get any technical training on adaptation measures?

No

Comments:

mas bien se capacitaron en uso y manejo adecuado de la tecnología.

5. Conclusions and lessons learnt

5.1 Strengths/ advantages/ opportunities of the Technology

Strengths/ advantages/ opportunities of the technology
Fortalezas: El Material se encuentra en la localidad.
Se usa mano de obra local para la construcción.
ventajas:Fácil de usar
Disminuye el consumo de leña
reduce emisión de humo dentro de la cocina
La cocción de alimentos es mas rápido por lo que se concentra el calor sin fuga
mayor aseo en la cocina
La leña a usar es de pequeñas dimensiones (ramas , virutas, haz tillas y diversas especies vegetales).
Oportunidad: La tecnología puede ser usada por hombres y mujeres.
Accesible para las familias.
Aceptado por un buen numero de usuarios de la tierra.
Que mas usuarios de la tierra adopten la tecnología.

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

Weaknesses/ disadvantages/ risks How can they be overcome?
Debilidades: El material de la recamara de combustión es frágil y tiende a romperse si ni tienen cuidado. orientando al usuario de la tierra en el uso de leña pequeña y que se la ubiquen con cuidado.
Riesgos: El Usuario de la tierra no lo adopte la tecnología.
como tal y le haga modificación.
Modificaciones al diseño.
Capacitando sobre el uso y manejo de la tecnología, a manera de hacer conciencia al usuario de la tierra de las bondades que esta tiene.
