In Ecuador, micro-watersheds play a critical role in providing freshwater resources, preserving biodiversity, serving as natural defenses against disasters, and promoting the viability of agriculture. The effective protection of these areas becomes a crucial aspect for human benefit, the safeguarding of the environment and the sustainable advancement of the country. This study consists of developing an environmental management plan to preserve and protect the micro-basin of the Magmas ravine in the Umbria neighborhood of the parish of Aloasí. The micro-basin was divided into three areas: high, medium and low, in each of them physical, chemical and microbiological analyzes of the water and soil resources were carried out, the analysis of the physical and chemical parameters was carried out, demonstrating the conditions in which each area is located.
