Diversity of arboreal species in scenarios of urban agriculture in the municipality of Pinar del Río
Abstract
The research was carried out in the organoponics system of "Vial Colón" belonging to the municipality of Pinar del Río, with the objective of determining the diversity of arboreal species associated with these scenarios. Inventories were carried out in the different organoponics to determine the number of individuals per species. Its taxonomic identification was made, as well as its absolute frequency and abundance calculations in each sample. A total of 37 arboreal species belonging to 26 botanical families were obtained. The most represented family was the Fabaceae. The species with the highest abundance were Persea americana Mill. and Moringa oleifera Lam., while the frequency of appearance yielded values higher than 70% in Azadirachta indica A. Juss., P. americana, M. oleifera, Mangifera indica L. and Cocos Nucifera L.
