Spanish term or phrase: siembra por tutoreo
Hola nuevamente,

Primeramente me gustaría aclarar que el término que consulto solo aparece en una lista de actividades a realizarse en un proyecto. Este proyecto se ha estado realizando en Nicaragua.

El término es "siembra por tutoreo"

A modo de referencia encontré el siguiente vínculo:

http://repositorio.una.edu.ni/3121/1/tne20e43.pdf

Siembra por tutoreo
Para realizar el tutoreo se tomará en cuenta el tamaño de la planta, es decir la planta debe medir entre 20 y 40 cm ya que este es el rango ideal para aplicar la técnica, esto se realiza a través de un amarre en el tallo principal de las plantas
con ayuda de una estaca o rafia agrícola, utilizando una vuelta floja o una abrazadera plástica, también llamada anillo para tutorado, pueden estar ligadas a un cable principal que sostiene a la planta, esto para lograr una mejor producción
y frutos más inocuos y para que en el momento de la cosecha sea más fácil su recolección.

Aunque el texto no ofrece mayor contexto, asumo que con "por tutoreo" se refieren a un proceso asistido por un técnico agrónomo.

De antemano, agradezco su invaluable apoyo al respecto.

crop training/training systems
Explanation:
This is about training the plant, not training people.
"estaca o rafia agrícola" is the stake or trellis netting. Tutoreo is about training the plant to grow up the supports provided.

I saw the previous Kudoz question, but I think this covers all kinds, and is not specific to trellis or stakes, especially as those are mentioned in the example you have given.
As it is the name of a course, there could be a better way of wording it, but I do think "tutoreo" is about training the plant.

I think it's more than just staking, as that wouldn't make a very interesting course. Newly planted trees need stakes until they root, but I think there is more to this here. Climbing plants, such as cucumber, grapes, etc., need "training" to grow horizontally, otherwise they follow their natural tendencies to grow upwards in search of the sun.

agree  neilmac: Although if it's training/staking, "siembra" (sowing seed) seems to be out of place. It wouldn't be the first time.

agree  Helena Chavarria: This is definitely the answer.
