Abstract

The soil is essential for the survival of the human race, being a key piece to develop agriculture; however, the excessive use of chemical fertilizers that are incorporated into the soil with the intention of obtaining a more accelerated food production in the shortest possible time is causing crops to have to depend on ever greater chemical inputs, experiencing the degradation of the I usually. Therefore, new options are sought to improve soil conditions using organic fertilizers. The objective of the research was to determine the relationship between chicken manure and soil improvement in the Santa María Alta sector, Trujillo. The design was correlational, non-experimental and cross-sectional, some observation sheets and a survey of the 9 farmers were carried out, the result of the Spearman correlation coefficient is 0.756 with an approximate significance of 0.018. It is concluded that there is a high and significant positive relationship between chicken manure and soil improvement. Likewise, farmers feel satisfied with the production of crops planted in soils fertilized with chicken manure because it is good, profitable and ecological.
