Ítem Acceso Abierto Propagacion vegetativa de babaco (carica pentagona hilb) mediante tres enraizadores naturales bajo invernadero en la parroquia Guapán del Cantón Azogues(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2021) Rodríguez Sánchez , José Eduardo; Tambo Caraguay , Víctor Raúl; 0302767140The farmers of the Guapán Parish, in their eagerness to expand the market of products they offer to the region, have ventured into the cultivation of babaco under greenhouse with the method of asexual propagation by cuttings; however, they have faced several problems related to low rooting rates such as rotting of cuttings and low productivity of plants during cultivation. For this reason, this research aims to evaluate the effect of three substances of natural origin to promote the rooting of babaco cuttings under greenhouse in the Guapán parish of the Azogues canton, to offer strategies to farmers in the area to successfully root babaco cuttings. To meet the aforementioned, an experiment was conducted in which a 4x3 factorial arrangement was used, i. e., four rooting agents with three repetitions of doses, in which three natural rooting agents (coconut water, willow extract, and bee honey) were used against a commercial control based on ANA to test their influence on plant height, number of shoots, survival of cuttings, root length, volume and number of roots. Among the main results found, it was evident that coconut water was the rooting agent with the best results since it obtained higher percentages compared to the other natural rooting agents and even to the commercial control.
