Floristic composition and rangeland condition of the Phynaya Peasant Community (located North of Pitumarca district and EastNorth of Canchis Province, Cusco region) were evaluated to estimate stocking rate under climate change scenario. Floristic composition, vegetation cover, and plant vigor were evaluated on 79 step-transects of 200 m in six rangeland sectors. Preliminary results reveal that there are 60 species, grouped in 13 families, where the dominant families were Poaceae (46.67%), Asteraceas (15%) and seudograsses (13.3%), of which, 45% were palatable for alpacas. Of the total grazing areas, alpacas´ areas represent 70.4%, llamas 15.4%, cattle 3.5%, sheep 4.5% y vicunas 6.3%. Actual stocking was 1 alpaca unit per hectare while stocking rate average estimated was fair with supportability of 0.78 UAl/ha; thus, rangelands are considered on degradation process

The estimation and variation of the vegetation cover of the Amazon forest generated by anthropic activity in Huepetuhe had the purpose of estimating the loss of vegetation and the deforestation rates for an Amazon forest, the study was carried out using Landsat 8 satellite images, the treatment of the raster images was made using the ERDAS software, the images were subjected to geometric and radiometric corrections, for this purpose control points were taken on the ground, for the analysis four categories of forest degradation were established: Forest with null vegetation with presence of bare soil, forest with sparse vegetation, forest with moderate vegetation and total area of deterioration. The results from the analysis of the multispectral images and the NDVI show that compared to 2016, 30.1 ha increased in the forest category with no vegetation, 28.8 ha in forests with sparse vegeta...

Menciona que la teledetección y los sistemas de información geográfica son herramientas que se utilizan para la gestión de recursos naturales. Sin embargo, las imágenes satelitales como Landsat han presentado limitaciones en la resolución espacial, espectral y temporal para el campo de la agricultura y la ganadería de precisión. Frente a ello, aparecen como alternativa los microsensores adheridos a sistemas aéreos no tripulados (UAS). Así, el objetivo del estudio fue identificar y estimar la biomasa de las comunidades vegetales de tolar y bofedales de puna seca a través de sensores multiespectrales incorporados en los UAS. Para determinar la altura de vuelo, se recopilaron imágenes de las comunidades vegetales con sensores multiespectrales. Paralelamente, se recolectaron muestras de vegetación en las transectas fijas que formaban parte de los puntos de control en tierra. Las...

The study was carried out in the river wetlands of San Pedro and San Pablo adjacent to the Vilcanota River in the province of Canchis, Cusco, in southern Peru. The objective was to estimate the production of aerial biomass and the animal carrying capacity of these wetlands from the analysis of samples acquired in the field and NDVI orthophotographs. The images were acquired with a Parrot sequoia multispectral camera, transported by a Matrice 100dji Drone and processed in Pix4D and ArcGIS 10.6 software. The study identified 5 types of land use: wetland, agriculture, urbanization, salt and water. The estimated biomass production with field data was 2,359.46 kg/ha and 2,885.78 kg/ha, while the estimate with NDVI orthophotographs was 2,321.71 kg/ha and 3,048.72 Kg/ha for the wetlands of San Pablo and San Pedro respectively. The estimated animal load capacity from field data was 0.48 U.V/ha/y...
