Diseño de la linea de conduccion y repotenciacion de reservorios para riego en La Soledad, El Progreso, Isla San Cristobal - Galapagos

Abstract

Nearly 42% of the world's population, approximately 2.57 billion people, depend on agriculture. Given this reality, it is essential to address the needs of these communities that face limitations in access to water for their agricultural activities. In response, this titling work proposes a solution for the La Borreguera-La Soledad community in the canton of San Cristóbal, Galapagos. A system was designed that takes advantage of the water source in the "Cerro Gato" canyon, with a concession of 25 l/s for irrigation, according to the GAD of "El Progreso". A conduction and distribution system will be designed to supply water for irrigation to 124 properties, with an approximate extension of 390.8 ha.
