Item Desarrollo y validación de materiales de capacitación para agricultores/as en tizon tardio (phytophthora infestans) de la papa (solanum tuberosum), en la Provincia Bolívar(Universidad Estatal de Bolívar . Facultad de Ciencias Agropecuarias . Escuela de Ingeniería Agronómica, 2007) Cáceres Castro, Alexandra Paola; Yánez Garcia, Angel RodrigoLate blight is the disease that causes major losses in potato cultivation. These losses can be 100% but control measures are taken in time. Losses due to farmers know the biology and management of the disease. Training is one of the best ways to control potato late blight. Materials which have been used for training such as Guide to facilitate the development of farmer field schools "Integrated Management of Major Diseases and Insects of the Pope." If San Miguel, Cajamarca, Peru. Learning tools for facilitators, Integrated management of potato cultivation. 2000 edition, Ecuador; Facilitators Guidelines for Farmer Field Schools and others that need to be improved and there are also concepts in which late blight to be performed practices by which these concepts are transmitted to farmers. This paper describes the methodology used for the development of training materials. The methodology of the analysis of competencies that farmers should be able to develop in the field to combat the pathogen. This analysis was the basis for the development of objectives, which in turn guided the development of content, learning strategies and evaluation. This was done in a workshop facilitators, experienced technicians and agricultural extension plant pathologists they participated. Correct identification of the disease, identify favorable conditions for late blight, proper selection of potato varieties, efficient use of chemical control and frequent evaluation of the plot: As a result of this workshop is prioritizing the following skills. To sort the methodology under the guidance of learning defined a structure consisting of: (i) Title, (ii) Directions for the facilitator before the meeting, (iii) Prerequisite (iv) Time (v) Introduction, (vi) Objectives, (vii) Structure of the module (viii) Preparation Activities to develop with the participants during the session (ix) Review of knowledge (x) Initial Assessment of Knowledge (xi) Evaluation of expectations (xii) Technical content for participants ( xiii) Questions for dialogue (xiv) Practice (a) Objectives, (b) Supplies (c) Procedure (d) Notes, (xv) Synthesis Module (xvi) Final evaluation of knowledge (xvii) Evaluation Module ( xviii) Annexes (Annex 1 Technical content for the facilitator and participant materials and Annex 2 Questions for the evaluation of knowledge) (xix) References. Under this structure they are developed five modules: • Module 1. Know the symptoms of late blight and the fungus that causes • Module 2. Learn how you live Phytophthora • MODULE 3. CONTROLLING using late blight resistant potato varieties • MODULE 4. CONTROLLING late blight using fungicides • Module 5. Let's visit our plot to control potato late blight These modules were validated through training with a focus on knowledge management in three FFS of the Bolivar Province. They were also used to adjust these materials. This process was very dynamic, all changes that were made were subject to suggestions of farmers, experts in the field of late blight, agricultural extension and development of training materials. The result of this work is a guide to facilitate the learning of potato late blight, the same is intended to be used by field school facilitators and others interested in the subject. It is hoped that this guide is given before planting a potato to put into practice the concepts covered in the guide and that are necessary for proper management of the disease.
