The Waru Waru (or lorries) in Acora, Puno, are a pre-Hispanic agricultural system of elevated fields designed to grow in the flooded pampas of the Altiplano, more than 3,800 m above sea level. the technique is to excavate canals and use the extracted soil to create elevated round rectangular platforms (farm beds).

Water management : The canals act as reservoirs during droughts and as drainage during times of flooding, maintaining the humidity necessary for the plant. Fertility : The mud accumulated at the bottom of the canals is extracted periodically to fertilize the growing platforms naturally. , this technology to produce "superfoods" such as native potato, quinoa and cañihua without the need for agrochemicals.
