FALCON ACOSTA, María del C; VARGAS RODRIGUEZ, Heriberto; TORRES MENENDEZ, Fabienne y HERRERA BLEN, Lázaro. Evaluation of conflict of agricultural land use from their fitness as a contribution to sustainable development. cultrop [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.4, pp. 13-18. ISSN 0258-5936.
The analysis of usage conflict was carried out by means of the land suitability for the main crops of economical importance in the Unidad Básica de Producción Cooperativa UBPC “LV Aniversario de la CTC” (potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Poir.), beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum P. Miller.) y corn (Zea mays L.)), in order to avoid over explotation and also strengthen the management of the agricultural system. The land evaluation was based on a FAO scheme (2007) leaned on ALES software. It was supported on models of knowledgements created using relevant information developed by spacial data. As a result of the evaluation, it was evident that the main qualities that limit the productivity of the soils are rooting conditions, oxygen requirements, water requirements and erosion hazard. besides, it was discovered that the 29,74 and 25,58 % of all the evaluated grounds face medium and high conflict, respectively. If mean that there is a need of making a territorial order to the analyzed scenary
