Abstract
El presente trabajo de investigación se realizó en la comunidad de Cocharcas ubicada en la Provincia de Chincheros en la región Apurímac. El objetivo principal de este trabajo identifica y registra el valor de uso de las especies botánicas utilizadas por los pobladores de la comunidad usando para ello la metodología de entrevistas libres, semiestructuradas y caminatas etnobotánicas donde se colectaron los especímenes botánicos. Los datos obtenidos permitieron identificar y conocer las plantas con mayor importancia cultural para la comunidad utilizando para ello el índice de valor de uso de Phillips y Gentry (1993a). Asimismo, se generaron tablas informativas con los nombres científicos de las especies, así como las formas de uso entre otros datos. Como resultado de este trabajo, se identificaron 103 especies botánicas agrupadas en 44 familias y 94 géneros. La familia con más reporte de uso fue Asteraceae seguido de Fabaceae y Poaceae. Las especies identificadas fueron agrupadas en nueve categorías de uso, siendo la categoría Medicinal la que reporta un mayor uso (52 especies), seguida de Alimenticia (45 especies) y Social (26 especies). Basado en el índice de valor de uso las especies con mayor importancia para la comunidad fueron Schinus molle “molle”, Escallonia resinosa “chachas”, Clinopodium brevicalyx “salja muña” y Escallonia pendula “pampana pauca”. Por ello, se concluye que los pobladores de Cocharcas hacen uso y conservan los conocimientos tradicionales de sus recursos vegetales.
This research work was carried out in the community of Cocharcas located in the Province of Chincheros in the Apurímac region. The main objective of this work identifies and records the use value of the botanical species used by the residents of the community using the methodology of free, semi-structured interviews and ethnobotanical walks where the botanical specimens were collected. The data obtained made it possible to identify and know the plants with the greatest cultural importance for the community using the Phillips and Gentry (1993a) use value index. Likewise, informative tables were generated with the scientific names of the species, as well as the forms of use among other data. As a result of this work, 103 botanical species grouped into 44 families and 94 genera were identified. The family with the most reports of use was Asteraceae followed by Fabaceae and Poaceae. The identified species were grouped into nine use categories, with the Medicinal category reporting the highest use (52 species), followed by Alimentary (45 species) and Social (26 species). Based on the use value index, the most important species for the community were Schinus molle “molle”, Escallonia resinosa “chachas”, Clinopodium brevicalyx “salja muña” and Escallonia pendula “pampana pauca”. Therefore, it is concluded that the inhabitants of Cocharcas make use of and preserve the traditional knowledge of their plant resources.
