“…Souza et al, (2018) when studying melon plants submitted to mineral fertilization and organic fertilization, both combined and used separately, the dry matter yield of leaves, stems, fruits and shoots of melon plants was not affected, however, the application of bovine manure increased the availability of the organic forms of nitrogen in the soil. Similarly, Irineu et al (2018) observed a significant effect on the application of enriched bovine biofertilizer, on the number of seeds and weight of 100 seeds, attributing these gains the availability of nutrients supplied to the soil by the biofertilizer, as well as the adequate supply of the plants.…”

Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o efeito de diferentes adubações e coberturas do solo na produtividade e qualidade dos frutos de melão ‘Caipira’ (Cucumis melo var. acidulus) irrigado em condições semiáridas tropicais. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos ao acaso em arranjo fatorial 3x2, com três repetições. Foram comparados três manejos de adubação (F1 - Somente adubação mineral em fundação, F2 - adubação mineral mais orgânica em fundação, F3 - adubação mineral em fundação mais adubação foliar) em condições de solo descoberto e coberto com mulching preto. Avaliaram-se cinco plantas úteis por parcela. Em todas as parcelas foi aplicada em fundação a quantidade da adubação mineral recomendada para a cultura (40 kg ha-1 de Nitrogênio, 120 kg ha-1 de P2O5 e 40 kg ha-1 de K2O). Avaliou-se a massa média de fruto (kg), produtividade (t.ha-1), comprimento e diâmetro dos frutos (cm), espessura da polpa (cm), cavidade interna (cm) e sólidos solúveis totais (°Brix). Realizou-se a comparação das médias entre as adubações e coberturas do solo a partir do teste de Tukey com 5% de probabilidade. O uso de adubação mineral associada à orgânica em fundação proporcionou resultados superiores para as variáveis analisadas, exceto para sólidos solúveis totais e cavidade interna do fruto. O uso de mulching foi responsável por elevar a massa média dos frutos, a produtividade e o teor de sólidos solúveis totais do melão ‘Caipira’.

“…(Santos et al 2014) who studied the nutrition of pineapple crown sprouts, (Silva et al 2014), who studied the decomposition and release of nutrients from organic sources, and (Irineu et al 2018) studied the application of organic fertilizer in melons. Studies have shown the benefits of using organic fertilizers for crop growing, such as poultry litter in pineapple (Pereira et al 2019), humic acids in pineapple crown sprouts (Santos et al 2014), and biofertilizer based on bovine manure in melons (Irineu et al 2018). The decomposition and nutrient release from poultry little and cattle manure have also been studied (Silva et al 2014).…”

Pineapple is the third most cultivated tropical fruit in the world. However, few studies have focused on the cultivationusing organic fertilization, especially in semiarid regions. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate growth, production andphysicochemical traits of pineapple fruits produced under organic fertilization in the semiarid. The experiment wascarried out at the didactic orchard of Federal Rural University of Semiarid, Mossoró, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Fourfertilization treatments were studied (chemical fertilizer, cattle manure, goat manure, poultry litter). At 18 monthsafter planting, plant growth, physicochemical traits of fruits, and productivity were evaluated. Results showed thatorganic fertilization with poultry litter provides best results for physicochemical traits of fruits and productivity of ‘Pérola’pineapple. Organic fertilization with poultry litter is most promising for plant growth, physicochemical traits of fruits, andproductivity in ‘Pérola’ pineapple, therefore, the most suitable for cultivation in the semiarid region. The fruit firmness,central cylinder weight, and ratio SS/TA showed best values under chemical and goat manure fertilization.

“…Moreover, in the last decades, organic fertilization has also been used as an economic and environmental alternative, in the partial or total replacement of chemical fertilizers. Besides releasing nutrients necessary for plant growth, organic fertilizers provide benefits to the soil, such as improvements in structure, aeration and moisture storage capacity, regulating the effect in temperature and cation exchange capacity, which, in turn, potentiates crop productivity [10,11].…”

Aims: To evaluate the 'Canary' and 'Hale's Best Jumbo' melon yield and fruit characteristics as a function of fertilization management and soil cover with mulch. Study Design: The design was a randomized complete block design in a 2x3x2 factorial scheme, with three replications and seven plants per plot. Place and Duration of Study: The experiment was conducted from June to September 2015, at the Center of Agrarian and Biodiversity Sciences of the Federal University of Cariri, located in the city of Crato, Cariri region, Brazil. Methodology: Two varieties of melon ('Canary' and 'Hale's Best Jumbo') were studied under three fertilization managements (mineral fertilization via soil, mineral fertilization via soil + organic fertilization and mineral fertilization via soil + foliar fertilization) with the presence or absence of soil cover with polyethylene mulch. Results: The use of mineral + organic fertilization and mineral + leaf fertilization promoted an increase in fruit mass and yield of approximately 3.93 t ha-1 (25.50%) and 4.64 t ha-1 (30%), respectively. Both melon cultivars presented the best responses grown on plastic mulch, with yield increases of 79.66% and 26.16% for 'Canary' and 'Hale's Best Jumbo', respectively. Moreover, the 'Hale's Best Jumbo' cultivar presented higher soluble solids contents than the 'Canary' melon, with an increase of 11.26% (0.76 ° Brix). Conclusion: The use of soil cover and additional fertilization (organic or foliar) in the cultivation of melon provides an increase in size, mass and productivity, while soil cover increases the soluble solids content in fruits.
