dc.description.abstractAbstract The main objective of this research was to determine the environmental impact of the use of mycorrhizae as microorganisms that promote plant growth in the city of Valledupar. In melon cultivation, different rhythmic practices are used to achieve greater vegetative development and fruit part. It was proven that the use of mycorrhizal fungi as growth-promoting microorganisms in melon crops, symbiotically interrelated with the plant's root system, supply nutrients such as phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium, increasing absorption at the same time that the root system becomes effective in water consumption, increasing crop yield. In this research, a randomized factor design was developed with 11 treatments and three replications. The following were evaluated: thenumber of fruits per plant, average weight of fruits, weight of fruits at harvest and percentage of sugars. The research was carried out in the crops of the Finca Los Recuerdos de Ella, located in the township of Guacochito, located at a distance of 21 kmfrom the city of Valledupar. This exam took place in the months of June to August 2024, in different trials. It was carried out in ten experimental units in an area of 2 square meters each; located in a sector of 5 hectares, with six treatments and two application beds of two thousand five hundred square meters each.Keywords:Soil fertilization, environmental impact, mycorrhiza, land use
