Diseño e implementación de un proceso de rehabilitación en zonas riparias degradadas, con participación comunitaria, en un tramo del río Ocoa, Vereda del Amor, Villavicencio – Meta.

Abstract

The path of love is a residential sector that is immersed to a great extent in the riverside area. According to what is established by decree 1449 "the strip of round must not be less than 30 meters wide on each side of the riverbeds", that is why this area has been strongly affected by anthropic disturbances such as: Forest clearance for the establishment of crops, inadequate disposal of waste, the construction of access roads, the deposit of drag material on the slopes of the river as a protection barrier and urban expansion has influenced the degradation of the riparian forest , causing social and environmental problems such as: flood, water erosion, fauna - flora decrease and visual loss of the landscape. That is why the rehabilitation process is carried out according to the disturbance in two zones (scree and pasture), constituting two different planting designs. In the pedregal zone, the three bolillos model was implemented in an area of 700 m2, there were established 54 modules corresponding to 162 individuals. The concentric ring model (Anderson) was included in the pasture zone, where 108 individuals were planted in 12 modules for an extension of 8500 M2.

A monitoring was carried out during a month in which the growth habit of the sown species was arboreal, shrubby and herbaceous, finally a reseeding of the dead plants was generated. The achievement of this project was thanks to the joint work with the social actor, where through various dynamic workshops was achieved an awareness that allowed to strengthen the link between society and nature, promoting a different perception and thus creating more interest towards vegetation riparia.
