Evaluation of carbon capture in coffee production systems in the department of Nariño

One of the biggest environmental problems that has affected planet is global warming, due to high concentrations carbon (CO2), which led crops such as coffee being by climate change caused greenhouse gases (GHG), especially increase in incidence pests and diseases. However, sequestration contributes mitigation GHG emissions. The objective this work was evaluate stored above below ground biomass four six-year-old castle production systems. In a trial established under Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with treatments Coffee at free exposure (T1), Coffee-Lemon (T2), Coffee-Guamo (T3) Coffee-Carbonero (T4), three altitudes: 1,550 masl, between 2,000 masl masl. Data were collected corresponding stem diameters seedlings shade trees allometric equations applied obtain variables aerial root leaf litter soil obtained from their dry matter. Highly significant differences evaluated, T4 one highest concentration both 100.14 t ha-1 190.42 ha-1.
