Resumen

Introduction. The subregion of Southwestern Antioquia has an heterogeneous structure of production, with four major production areas: coffee, coal, livestock and diversified production. However, it has not recognized the environmental impact that can perform these activities in the locality. Objective. An environmental assessment carried on agricultural systems (agriculture and pisciculture) of Angelópolis Township. Materials and methods. It was conducted through field observation and interviews with small producers of avocado, sugarcane, coffee, citrus, plantain and trout. Results. Are evident environmental problems associated with production including possible contamination with sewage, the lack of reforestation (renewal of native vegetation cover) and the improper disposal of waste and packaging of chemicals. Additionally, is remarkable the little interaction with the environmental authority and the lack of association in some production systems, aspects that could benefit the conservation of resources such as biodiversity, soils and water.
