Worldwide, in order to achieve high food production and at the same time cover the nutritional requirements of crops, various agricultural systems have been created, but all these added to the increase in production costs, given the very high value of chemical amendments.
▶ And on the other hand, the consequences that generate the use and abuse of them, threatening the agro-food security of the communities, in a very similar way the constitutional framework of hundreds of sovereign states.

These legal frameworks clearly establish, among other aspects, the obligation of the state to promote sustainable agriculture, in order to guarantee the sovereignty and food security of the population and that the state will ensure the sustainable management of agricultural lands to ensure their agrifood potential.
Hence the need to seek the enhancement of the use of an organic fertilizer by purchasing it with a chemical fertilizer, where it will be based on a previous soil analysis, to observe physical-chemical characteristics that allow comparing the performance of both fertilizers.
Starting with the above described, and through the absorption of nutrients applied to the crops, it will be possible to obtain more specific aspects, among these the evaluation of the photosynthetic capacity of the trees subjected to the study.
In the same way, morpho-metric variables of the fruits (weight, diameter and number of seeds of the orange fruits) will also be evaluated, as well as the quantity of fruits per plant, and finally the analysis of the physical-chemical quality (titratable acidity, total soluble solids and yield).
