📋 Tender Overview
Academic activity allowed university students to learn in situ about the hydraulic infrastructure and the production processes of the most important irrigation project in the north of the country.The Olmos Tinajones Special Project - PEOT developed an institutional guided tour aimed at 12 students from the Faculty of Agricultural Engineering of the National Agrarian University La Molina in Lima, with the objective of strengthening their academic training through direct knowledge of the infrastructure and operation of the irrigation system in the Tierras Nuevas de Olmos.
The activity was developed as part of the coordination actions between the PEOT and the academy, allowing university students to understand the regional and national impact of the project, as well as the strategic role it plays in the development of technical agriculture and agro-exports.
The visit was carried out after coordination with the concessionaire H2Olmos, the company in charge of the irrigation structures of Nuevas Tierras de Olmos, which allowed the students to learn about the operation of the hydraulic systems, the conduction of water resources and the operation of pressurized irrigation in the project area. Likewise, there was support from the user Plantaciones del Sol, who facilitated access to their agricultural fields to show the students the productive infrastructure and processes applied to agro-export crops.
Dr. Nestor Montalvo Arquinigo, dean of the Faculty of Agricultural Engineering at UNALM, highlighted that this type of guided tours contribute to the comprehensive training of future professionals, by bringing them closer to real experiences of water resource management, the efficient use of natural resources and the contribution to the economic development of the country; in addition to demonstrating the commitment that exists in institutions such as the PEOT, with education, research and the dissemination of technical knowledge.
