Analisis de riesgo ambiental durante la propagación y producción del bioinsecticida botánico rotenona en una zona amazónica / Analysis of environmental risk during the spread and production of the botanical bioinsecticida rotenona in an amazonian zone

ABSTRACT

It was performed an Environmental Risk Assesment (E.R.A) of a possible installation of an industrial pilot plant in an hypothetical amazonian area for propagation and production of a botanic bioinsecticide known as rotenone. It was described its importance to employ in sustaining agriculture. Also, it was analized and evaluated the techniques of sowing, harvest and processing the amazonian plant called barbasco Lonchocarpus nicou. (Aublet) DC (with and proccessing the amazonian plant called barbaso Lonchocarpus nicou (Aublet) DC (with rotenone as main active ingredient) and its possibility of implantation in an amazonian area. Moreover, it was determined its aplication and was identificated the potential risk to population health, enviroment and to natural resources. Finally, it was purposed a monitoring plan.

RESUMEN

Se llevó a cabo un análisis de Riesgo Ambiental (E.R.A.) la posible instalación de una planta industrial en un área hipotético para la propagación y producción del bioinsecticida botánico rotenona. Se describe la importancia de empleo de la rotenona en la agricultura sostenible. Se analiza evalúan las técnicas de siembra, cosecha y procesamiento de la planta amazónica llamada barbasco Lanchocarpus nicou (Aublet) DC (cuyo principal ingrediente activo es la rotenona) y su factibilidad de implementación en la zona amazónica. Se determina la factibilidad de su aplicación y se identifican los riesgos potenciales a la salud de la población, al ambiente y a los recursos naturales. Finalmente, se propone un plan monitoreo.
