Abstract

La ciénaga de Ayapel hace parte del macrosistema de humedales y zonas inundables de la Depresión Momposina y es un sistema de lagunas sobre la llanura aluvial del Río San Jorge. Cumple una función ambiental importante para la región y el país, pues modera los regímenes hidrológicos de las áreas tributarias que vierten sus caudales sobre ella, así mismo, alberga una gran variedad de especies de flora y fauna. El objetivo de este trabajo es el estudio de los aspectos socioeconómicos de este sistema cenagoso y de sus potencialidades económicas, las cuales manejadas de manera sostenible pueden darle bienestar a la comunidad que lo habita. En lo social se encontró un bajo nivel educativo en la comunidad y un alto porcentaje de la población con necesidades básicas insatisfechas. En cuanto a lo económico, las actividades agrícolas se han contraído, hay conflictos en el uso del suelo por sobreutilización o subutilización, y un alto porcentaje de la tierra está dedicado a la ganadería. Por su parte, la actividad pesquera, de la cual depende la mayoría de la población, es artesanal, una de subsistencia y otra comercial, sin embargo, la captura de peces se ha reducido por los problemas ambientales y la utilización de artes de pescas ilegales.
