The temperature inside the Sayary can reach 45°C. It is permanently controlled in order to optimize the conditions inside the greenhouse (constant temperature, hygrometry??). The temperature can be reduced (to 20°C for example) using either black nets which are hung above the cultures, or mud which is put on the tarpaulin. These techniques are used to create areas of shade above the cultures which are more sensitive to high temperatures. In this way, it is possible to adapt heat conditions for each culture inside in a single greenhouse. For example putting a net above the oregano will protect it, as it is more sensible to heat than the thyme. These regulation techniques could also be undertaken in the Wallipinis. | The temperature inside the Sayary can reach 45°C.

Wallipini et Sayary : 2 types of greenhouses which originally come from the Aymaran civilization. These techniques are used nowadays to cultivate vegetables in the Altiplano in Bolivia.
Wallipini et Sayary : 2 types of greenhouses which originally come from the Aymaran civilization. These techniques are used nowadays to cultivate vegetables in the Altiplano in Bolivia.

The Altiplano is a dry and cold area where almost only root vegetables are cultivated: potato, chueño, onions, carrots. All of them grow underground and the earth protects them from hard climatic conditions.
In order to eat other kinds of vegetables, the Granja Ecológica Ventilla which is located in El Alto, La Paz's highest neighborhood (4000m high), uses 2 types of greenhouses: the Wallipini and the Sayary. These greenhouses originally come from the Aymarian civilisation, born 2 centuries B.C. (pre-inca era) around the Titicaca lake.
Thus, are cultivated at the Granja Ecológica Ventilla salads, oregano, thyme, sage, celery, kale-cabbage, rhubarb, spinach, following ancestral konw-how from the Aymarian culture.
The Wallipini greenhouse is half-buried in the ground and is built like a house with:
The Adobe walls store the heat during the day and deliver it inside the greenhouse at night. The inertia of the walls maintains an almost constant temperature inside the greenhouse. As La Paz is close to the equator, the sun is usually at zenith, the greenhouse's orientation does not really matter and the walls do not interfere with sun radiations.
In the Wallipini, the vegetables can be cultivated 7 months per year (the Wallipini is not efficient enough against cold winters).
The Sayary Greenhouse is entirely digged in the ground and benefits from the earth's constant temperature.
If, for ergonomic reasons, the walls need to be a bit higher than initially, it is possible to add some adobe bricks above the ground.
Like the Wallipini, the framework is made of wood and the roof consists in a plastic tarpaulin.
The temperature inside the Sayary can reach 45°C. It is permanently controlled in order to optimize the conditions inside the greenhouse (constant temperature, hygrometry??). The temperature can be reduced (to 20°C for example) using either black nets which are hung above the cultures, or mud which is put on the tarpaulin. These techniques are used to create areas of shade above the cultures which are more sensitive to high temperatures. In this way, it is possible to adapt heat conditions for each culture inside in a single greenhouse. For example putting a net above the oregano will protect it, as it is more sensible to heat than the thyme. These regulation techniques could also be undertaken in the Wallipinis.
In the Sayary, vegetables and aromatics can be cultivated all year long.
La Granja Ecológica Ventilla détient un label biologique. Le fertilisant utilisé est un mélange de compost, de bouse de vache et de lombricompost. Huit vaches sont élevées pour la production de fromages et de bouse pour le compost. Leur alimentation saine repose sur un mélange de plantes montées en fleurs provenant des serres, de céréales achetées dans le commerce (orge - cebada), et des résidus végétaux issus du processus de fabrication de bière locale.
La mise en place de ruches permet la pollinisation des plantes cultivées par les abeilles.
L'irrigation est manuelle et journalière. L'eau provient d'un bassin de récupération des eaux de pluie.
La chaleur des serres permet un propagation très rapide des maladies, c'est pourquoi il est nécessaire de contrôler fréquemment l'état de santé du sol et des plantes.
Les légumes sont conditionnés sur place dans une "chambre froide" : un bâtiment maintenu impeccablement propre aux murs épais (60cm) qui conserve la fraîcheur. Directement après la récolte à l'aube, les légumes sont lavés, séchés sur des filets, triés et sélectionnés, emballés et étiquetés avant d'être livrés dans les supermarchés locaux.
