Abstract

La fertilización que realizan los agricultores se hace con el objetivo de mejorar la rentabilidad de un cultivo, a través del aumento en la productividad, sin embargo, si no se tiene un manejo efectivo de la disponibilidad de nutrientes en el suelo, estas prácticas son ineficientes tanto social como privadamente. Socialmente por los costos medio ambientales generados a través de externalidades negativas (aumento en los costos de tratamiento de aguas, danos a la salud, etc.); y, privadamente debido a que, en corto plazo, los costos marginales de fertilización aumentan más que sus beneficios marginales y en el largo plazo, los beneficios totales disminuyen por el deterioro del suelo y agua disponible para su cultivo
