Excavation of Vigiñas

Vigiñas are excavations in the ground with a diameter of approximately 10 to 20 meters and a depth of 1 to 2.5 meters. These technologies provide water for the dry season and help the regrowth and growth of forage species. Likewise, vigiñas or qotañas can be of different sizes and storage capacities, depending on the water requirement and availability of areas for their construction.
