A prática do cultivo de milho sucessivo à beterraba tem apresentado retornos econômicos positivos aos produtores, sendo um dos fatores primordiais para o sucesso da atividade, a adubação. O estudo objetivou avaliar diferentes manejos de adubação nos aspectos quantitativos e qualitativos na cultura da beterraba, bem como seus efeitos residuais no cultivo do milho plantado em sucessão. O experimento foi conduzido no município de Diamantina-MG, em casa de vegetação, sob delineamento em blocos casualizados, com sete tratamentos, sendo controle (sem adubação), mineral, organomineral peletizado NPK 04-17-07 nas doses de 40, 80, 160 e 320% da recomendação para a cultura da beterraba, com quatro repetições. Avaliou-se altura de plantas, diâmetros longitudinal e transversal das raízes, clorofila A e B, peso de massa fresca e seca da parte aérea e raízes, produtividade, teor de sólidos solúveis e o tempo de prateleira. Na segunda etapa experimental, verificou-se o número de espigas por planta, peso por espiga, peso do sabugo, peso de 100 grãos e estimada a produtividade. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e ao teste Tukey (p < 0,05) para comparação de médias. A análise de regressão foi feita diante as doses do fertilizante organomineral para produtividade de ambas as culturas. A utilização do fertilizante organomineral peletizado e torta de filtro no plantio proporcionam efeitos positivos ao desenvolvimento e produção de plantas de beterraba assim como para o milho em sucessão, mostrando-se alternativas viáveis à adubação mineral neste sistema.
Considered the economic engine of many countries, the coffee culture represents an important component of the agricultural chain in Brazil. The growing values of commercialization, planting areas, and crop productivity require the acquisition of quality seedlings, which must receive adequate nutritional support through efficient fertilizers. Slow and controlled-release fertilizers, such as organominerals, gain prominence when it comes to increasing efficiency in the use of phosphorus, as well as plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) with phosphate solubilizing characteristics. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different sources of mineral and organomineral fertilizers, inoculated and non-inoculated with PGPB on the quality parameters of coffee seedlings. In general, the P sources used in the experiment positively interfered with the development of coffee seedlings. This proves that there is a need for nutritional supplementation for the good development of the seedlings. Among the sources used, the organomineral in granulated form showed better performance in coffee seedlings' growth and physiological parameters, proving to be a viable alternative to commonly used fertilizers. The addition of PGPB showed a significant advantage for seedling quality variables.
In the field, coffee is subject to the stress of soil compaction and lack of water, which may cause changes in the physiological responses of the plant. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological responses of the coffee tree under different soil moisture content and compaction degrees in the soil subsurface. The experimental design was in blocks, arranged in a factorial scheme, with four replications. The first factor corresponds to the two wetlands, 50 and 100% of the soil field capacity. The second factor corresponds to 60, 70, 80 and 90% of soil subsurface compaction. The experimental plot consisted of a Coffea arabica L. plant grown on a polyvinyl chloride column. The physiological responses were evaluated at 180 days of planting. The photosynthetic rate, carbon consumption, CO2 concentration in the substamatic chamber, internal carbon / atmospheric carbon ratio, water efficiency and absolute coffee growth rate were influenced by the different compaction degrees and soil moisture content. The transpiration rate and the root weight ratio were influenced only by the humidity, as opposed to the stomatal conductance and the foliar temperature, which were by degrees of compaction. The ratio of root system per soil layer was influenced by compaction degrees and soil depth. The limitation of root growth and lack of water are the main causes of the decrease in physiological responses. Subsurface compaction and water deficit together potentiate the effect negatively on the physiological responses of freshly seeded coffee plants.
A câmara de pressão de Richards é o método mais tradicional e considerado padrão para determinar as tensões de retenção de água no solo, porém detém da desvantagem do elevado custo de aquisição. A mesa de tensão é um equipamento alternativo para este método, sendo de baixo custo e construção variada. Objetivou-se neste estudo construir uma mesa de tensão de baixo custo e fácil montagem para determinação da tensão de retenção de água no solo, comparando-a posteriormente à câmara de pressão de Richards utilizando amostras de solo de diferentes sistemas de cultivo, pastejo extensivo, pastejo rotacionado, cultivo de milho, cultivo de tifton, cultivo de cana-de-açúcar e mata natural (controle), submetidas às tensões de água de 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 e 12 kPa. Foram analisadas densidade, granulometria e teor de matéria orgânica do solo. A área sob cultivo de tifton, mesmo com o maior teor de matéria orgânica, promotor da resistência do solo à compactação, apresentou maior densidade do solo, seguida pelo pastejo rotacionado. Este fato pode ser explicado pelo intenso tráfego de máquinas em área irrigada sem o controle da carga aplicada no solo e o manejo inadequado da água. Os valores obtidos da mesa de tensão de baixo custo foram diferentes daqueles da câmara de pressão de Richards e entre os sistemas estudados, sendo necessário a aplicação do fator de correção de 1,41 e 1,42 nas tensões de 6 e 10 kPa, respectivamente, para utilizar o equipamento com precisão.
Maize has a high nutritional requirement, especially regarding NPK fertilization. However, conventional fertilization with these nutrients presents a high loss potential, mainly by volatilization, leaching, adsorption, and fixation, which may reflect on the development and yield of maize plants. Using fertilizers with increased efficiency seeks to mitigate these limitations, reducing potential losses due to gradual nutrient release. This study aimed to compare the nutrition, growth, and production of maize plants subjected to different doses and special NPK fertilizers fully applied at planting and their residual effect on the soil. It was a randomized block design in a 3x4 factorial scheme with four replications. The first factor consisted of conventional mineral, polymer-coated, and organomineral + PGPB fertilizers. The second factor included doses of 0, 60, 90, and 120 kg ha-¹ of NPK. The study evaluated vegetative growth, foliar nutrition (N, P, and K), yield growth components, productivity, profitability, and residual K content in the soil after cultivation. The conventional mineral fertilizer produced more dry biomass in the aerial part. Profitability was similar between conventional and special fertilizers. However, the latter performed better overall in vegetative and productive growth, showing a potential reduction of the applied doses without compromising grain yield, especially in organomineral + PGPB fertilization. This treatment also presented a higher residual effect of K on the soil.
