RESUMEN
Se evaluó la gestión ambiental en 17 agroecosistemas con probables riesgos a la salud, por presencia de contaminación por metales pesados, mediante la selección de variables y el apoyo de herramientas del análisis cualitativo. El desarrollo del diagnóstico ambiental permitió determinar los principales problemas en las áreas de estudio. Se concluyó que la gestión que se realiza en estos agroecosistemas es ineficiente, se evidenció el deterioro de los recursos naturales insertos en la dinámica productiva, así como la incidencia de enfermedades transmisibles y no transmisibles que mantienen una estrecha relación con problemas ambientales. Se realizó la propuesta de acciones encaminadas a mitigar los principales problemas determinados en el área de estudio.
ABSTRACT
The environmental management was assessed in 17 agroecosystems with probable health risks due to the presence of heavy metal pollution, by selecting variables and supporting on the qualitative analysis tool support. The development of the environmental analysis allowed determining the main problems in the studied areas. It was concluded that the management performed in these agroecosystems is inefficient. There it was evident the deterioration of the natural resources inserted in the productive dynamic, and also the incidence of the transmissible and non-transmissible diseases keeping a close relationship with environmental problems. We made the proposal of measures to mitigate the main problems identified in the studied area.
