The project is located in the subtropical zone of the Yungas of La Paz Department in the buttresses of the Andes. N The region has temperatures exceeding 30 C and average annual precipitation near 800 mm with close to 1000 m altitude. The community based its economy on agricultural production n, mainly the cultivation of coffee, coca, citrus fruit c, pl tano and other fruits. The Producers Association n cal Ecol Nogalani APEN is a legally established organization n, whose overall objective is to improve the income and the level of self-sufficiency of product.This to turn s sustainable agriculture, feeding the population ny offering you a better quality of life. This association occurs b n caf basically org nico and currently has a community of prebeneficiadora Nogalani, 1500 quintals of coffee a year are harvested. The association currently has 30 active n partners, and considering the enlargement of the capacity of the prebeneficiadora and using energy to HYDROELECTRIC ctrica for these tasks with the consequent reduction of n n production costs, much of the community members who are not members, might join, as well as residents of the neighboring communities of: Pichari, August 21 and San Felipe. The project involves the construction of n HYDROELECTRIC microcentral ctrica in San Jos ro passing through the community in order to provide energy to the ctrica prebeneficiadora caf, s adem equip this plant with a 20HP engine, a toaster of coffee and a mill, namely to provide energy for the lower cost production na.
