Asistencia de Investigación: Aprovechamiento de la energía solar en cultivos acuícolas de recursos limitados (AREL) en el departamento del Tolima. Caso de estudio finca la Selva Granja Villa Carol

Abstract

The Limited Resource Aquaculturists (AREL) of the Combeima Canyon zone of influence present the problem of water turbidity during the winter season, which brings an increase in the mortality of the species cultivated in their ponds, mainly rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss), so it is proposed the implementation of water recirculation systems (SRA) fed with solar energy.

For the development of the project an experimental methodology of quantitative deductive type was used. For this purpose, a design stage was carried out prior to the implementation of the prototype on the farm. The objective of the project is the generation of a proposal for the implementation of a Water Recirculation System (WRS) with solar energy that guarantees the propitious conditions for the growth and adequate development of aquatic species.

As a result, a functional prototype of a Water Recirculation System was obtained for the cultivation of rainbow trout fry at Finca La Selva, Villa Carol Farm, located in the town center of Villa Restrepo-Ibagué-Tolima.
