EVALUACIÓN DE LAS TÉCNICAS DE APROVECHAMIENTO DE FRUTOS DE AGUAJE (Mauritia Flexuosa L.f.) EN EL DISTRITO DE JENARO HERRERA, LORETO, PERÚ

Abstract: El aguaje es una palmera de alto valor comercial con importancia ecológica y social en la Amazonía Peruana. La tala excesiva de los individuos femeninos para el aprovechamiento de los frutos ha generado que la cosecha se realice cada vez a mayor distancia de los centros poblados y ha desencadenado la degradación y bajo estado de conservación de los aguajales en bosques naturales. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar cómo los pobladores se vienen adaptando a la degradación del recurso, a través de la … Show more

“…However, this ecosystem is threatened by the growing population and developing economies due to the high demand for palm fruits and the expansion of commercial agriculture, mining, and oil and timber extraction [6,9,10].One way to keep the forest standing is through the promotion of the sustainable use of non-timber forest products [9]. In this region, this could be achieved by replacing the traditional methods of fruit harvesting of cutting the palms with climbing [11]. Several initiatives have promoted the sustainable management of palms in the region [6,8,11] but uptake of these projects is limited by the lack of information about the abundance of palms at large scales.…”

“…In this region, this could be achieved by replacing the traditional methods of fruit harvesting of cutting the palms with climbing [11]. Several initiatives have promoted the sustainable management of palms in the region [6,8,11] but uptake of these projects is limited by the lack of information about the abundance of palms at large scales. Developing tools to assess the distribution and density of these palm trees, would help to estimate the total potential economic value of the forests and promote sustainable management [4,12].Current studies employing remote sensing techniques have been useful to measure the extent of swamps and peatlands, but do not have the resolution to measure the abundance of palms at scales that are relevant to management.…”

“…Horn et al (2018) estimated that between 2012 and 2013 approximately 114,000 palms were felled. As a result, M. flexuosa abundance and density decrease in increasingly degraded sites (Horn et al, 2012;Hidalgo Pizango et al, 2022) and become more male-dominated which reduces the capacity of the species to reproduce (Virapongse et al, 2017;Falen Horna and Honorio Coronado, 2018). Consequences include a reduction in biomass and necromass C stocks and in litter C inputs which build up the peat over time (Hergoualc'h et al, 2017;Bhomia et al, 2019;Dezzeo et al, 2021;Hergoualc'h et al, 2023).…”

“…En el departamento de Ucayali, los aguajales cuentan con una extensión de 65 120,04 ha de las cuales 59 272,00 ha se encuentran en la provincia de Coronel Portillo (Revilla-Chávez et al, 2019). De acuerdo, con Virapongse et al (2017), se pueden utilizar todas las partes de la palmera, sus hojas en artesanía y para construcciones de casas rústicas, sus frutos son consumidos en fresco, y la pulpa es consumida en jugos, sopa y helados (Goodman et al, 2013;Falen et al, 2018). Los frutos de M. flexuosa poseen compuestos bioactivos y antioxidantes, siendo los polifenoles y carotenoides los más importantes componentes responsables de la capacidad antioxidante (Sandri et al, 2017;Abreu-Najarjo et al, 2020).…”
