El ambiente y la salud pueden verse afectados por una mala gestión de residuos, por lo que se deben tomar medidas preventivas para la reducción su fragilidad. El propósito de esta investigación fue la gestión integral de los residuos sólidos generados en la hacienda bananera “Hermanos Lozano”. Para ello en primer lugar, se realizó el diagnóstico de la gestión actual de residuos sólidos. Además, se aplicaron encuestas a todo el personal de la hacienda con el fin de obtener información básica. Así mismo se caracterizaron y cuantificaron los residuos. Como resultado se obtuvo 94% de residuos orgánicos, 3% de plásticos, 2% de residuos peligrosos y el 1% de papel y cartón. Finalmente, se presentó estrategias que ayudaran a lograr la gestión integral de los desechos sólidos en la hacienda y al mismo tiempo permitirá cumplir con la normativa ambiental aplicable.

The environment and health can be affected by poor waste management, which is why preventive measures must be taken to reduce their fragility. The purpose of this research was the integral management of the solid waste generated at the “Herman’s Lozano” banana farm. To do this, first of all, the diagnosis of the current management of solid waste was carried out. In addition, surveys were applied to all farm personnel in order to obtain basic information. Likewise, the residues were characterized and quantified. As a result, 94% organic waste, 3% plastic, 2% hazardous waste and 1% paper and cardboard were obtained. Finally, strategies were presented that would help achieve the integral management of solid waste on the farm and at the same time allow compliance with the applicable environmental regulations.
