Resumen en inglés

The practice was carried out in Urabá Antioqueño, exactly in the Casco farm belonging to the C.I Tropical S.A. business group. The objective was to carry out an accompaniment in the diagnosis, training and subsequent evaluation of the cultural work required in the cultivation of bananas to increase their efficiency, since there was a high rate of rejection for an inadequate technical operation. Therefore, it was necessary to train the operators, where the correct way to perform the tasks was specified, in order to give a complete rethinking of the established procedures, generating a constant improvement in the execution of each task to obtain a product of excellent quality and a minimum rejection. The different evaluation formats of work available to the group were used and the "pogo" method was implemented, which allows for the random selection of plants in a controlled manner. The "pogo" consists of taking an area of the lot at random and enclosing it in a frame of 30m by 30m in total gives an area of 900m2 within which we proceeded to evaluate 30 plants also taken at random, the parameters to evaluate were; moorage, bagging, deflowering, leaf removal, removal of the roots, debris, deflection of spikes, deflection of the bunch, etc. These tasks are known as fruit protection and it was here that the greatest inconsistencies were found. Fertilization, weed control, and drainage maintenance were evaluated generally by lots. These did not present major inconsistencies because they were done on time and in a controlled manner by the field coordinators
