“…Silva et al (2011) obtained a weight increase of 1,000 crambe grains by P application in the sowing furrow. The values of 6.3 to 7.7 g obtained by Silva et al (2011) were slightly below those observed in this study, but within the range reported by Falasca et al (2010), which is between 6 and 10 g.…”

“…This crop is tolerant to drought and low temperatures, has a short growing cycle ranging from 83 to 105 days, as well as low production costs and characteristics that allow mechanized harvesting (Falasca et al, 2010). Due to these characteristics, crambe is an interesting alternative for cultivation after soybean, in the fall-winter growing season, the so-called second growing season, especially in earlyfall periods, when the climate risks in the Midwest of Brazil make the sowing of crops such as corn and sunflower unfeasible (Marin et al, 2000;Roscoe & Delmontes, 2008;Heinemann et al, 2009.…”

SUMMARYThe interest in crambe (Crambe abyssinica) cultivation in Brazil is on the rise, whereas information on the nutrient requirements for this crop is scarce. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (N-P 2 O 5 -K 2 O formula 8:28:16) fertilization (0, 150, and 300 kg ha -1 ) on crambe shoot biomass production, grain and oil yields, and nutrient extraction and exportation in the second growing season after soybean. The experiment with a Haplorthox (Dystroferric Red Latosol) was carried out for two years in Botucatu, São Paulo State, Brazil. A randomized complete block design with eight replications was used. Fertilization with NPK at sowing increased the shoot biomass production, grain yield, grain oil content, as well as nutrient extraction and exportation at harvest. In the fertilized treatments, the average amounts of nutrients extracted per hectare were 91 kg K, 71 kg N, 52 kg Ca, 9.4 kg P, 9.4 kg Mg, 7.9 kg S, 2,348 g Fe, 289 g Zn, 135 g Mn, and 18.2 g Cu; while the average values of nutrient exportation per hectare were 54 kg N, 20 kg K, 12.3 kg Ca, 10 kg P, 6.6 kg S, 3.2 kg Mg, 365 g Zn, 60 g Fe, 50 g Mn, and 7.3 g Cu, with NPK fertilizer application.

“…Para a Argentina, ao simular um zoneamento de aptidão agrícola para a cultura do Crambe, Falasca et al (2010) destacam que para cultivo de primavera, semeado em outubro, a colheita ocorre no prazo de 90 a 100 dias após a emergência, também similar aos resultados verificados para semeaduras realizadas mais tardiamente na estação de inverno -em agosto e setembro (Tabela 1).…”

“…É uma cultura oleaginosa capaz de tolerar temperaturas de até -6,0 ºC por algumas horas sem danos significantes (Fowler, 1991). Durante o período vegetativo necessita temperaturas entre 15 ºC e 25 ºC (Falasca et al, 2010) Dentre as principais características da cultura está sua precocidade, com grãos maduros aos 90/100 dias, boa produtividade, podendo atingir 2.500 kg ha -1 , adaptação a variadas condições pedoclimáticas (Lazzeri et al, 1995;Lessman e Meier, 1972;White e Higgins, 1966) e maturação uniforme, facilitando a colheita mecanizada (Falasca et al, 2010).…”

Resumo A cultura do crambe surge como alternativa de produção, destacando sua precocidade e o potencial para a produção de óleo, em estação fria. A escassez de informações sobre parâmetros climáticos e fenológicos conduziu à determinação da temperatura basal inferior, da duração do ciclo e da constante térmica da cultura do crambe em Frederico Westphalen (RS). O trabalho foi composto por sete épocas de semeadura em 2009 e quatro em 2010. A temperatura basal inferior foi determinada pelos métodos do menor desvio-padrão e do desenvolvimento relativo. A temperatura basal para o subperíodo emergência-maturação (EME-MAT) foi de 9,5 ºC, enquanto para os subperíodos emergência-início da floração (EME-IFLO), emergência-fim da floração (EME-FFLO) e início da floração-fim da floração (IFLO-FFLO) foram, respectivamente, de 10,2 ºC, 10,8 ºC e 10,0 ºC, obtidas pelo método do menor desvio-padrão. O subperíodo compreendido entre EME-MAT variou de 74 a 136 dias, com duração média de 96 dias. Para os subperíodos EME-IFLO, EME-FFLO e IFLO-FFLO a duração média foi, respectivamente, de 52, 82 e 29 dias. Considerando-se os valores de temperatura basal para cada subperíodo, a duração média entre EME-MAT foi de 691 ºC dia, variando entre 576 ºC dia e 792ºC dia. Para os subperíodos EME-IFLO, EME-FFLO e IFLO-FFLO, a duração média do foi de 279 ºC dia; 444 ºC dia e 220 ºC dia, respectivamente. Palavras-chave:Crambe abyssinica Hochst., temperatura, fenologia. Basal temperature, crop growth cycle duration and growing degree-days of crambe AbstractCrambe is an alternative crop, precocious and with potential to produce oil during the cold season. The scarcity of information about climatic and phenological parameters led to the determination of basal temperature, crop growth cycle duration and growing degree-days of Crambe. The research was composed of seven sowing dates in 2009 and four in 2010. Basal temperature was determined by the methods of least variability and relative development. The basal temperature for the subperiod emergence-maturation (EME-MAT) was 9.5 °C, whereas for the subperiods seedling emergency-early flowering stage (EME-IFLO), seedling emergency-end of flowering (EME-FFLO) and early flowering-end of flowering (IFLO-FFLO) were 10.2 ºC, 10.8 °C and 10.0 ºC, respectively. The subperiod between EME-MAT ranged from 74 to 136 days with an average duration of 96 days. For EME-FLO, EME-FFLO and IFLO-FFLO the average duration was 52, 82 and 29 days, respectively. Considering the values of basal temperature for each period or subperiod, the average time between EME-MAT was 691 ºC day, ranging between 576 ºC day and 792 ºC day. For EME-IFLO, EME-FFLO and IFLO-FFLO, the average was 279 ºC day, varying between 444 °C day and 220 ºC day.
