A rocha verdete é uma fonte possível de utilização como fertilizante potássico, com concentração de 13% de K 2 O total, rocha pelítica rica em ilita com glauconita (filossilicato hidratado de potássio e ferro, do grupo da mica). Porém há uma limitação para melhorar sua disponibilização, sendo assim objetivou-se caracterizar o verdete quanto ao potencial de utilização agrícola, observar se ocorrerá aumento da disponibilidade de potássio, cálcio, magnésio quando o verdete for submetido a diferentes doses de ácido húmico e ácido fosfórico.
INCUBATION OF VERDETE WITH ACID TO DIFFERENT SOURCES AVAILABLE POTASSIUM, CALCIUM, SOIL MAGNESIUM ABSTRACTThe verdete rock is a possible source for use as a potassium fertilizer, with a concentration of 13% total K 2 O, rich pelitic rock illite with glauconite (phyllosilicate hydrated potassium and iron, mica group). But there is a limitation to improve its availability, so the objective was to characterize the verdigris of the potential of agricultural use, see if occur increased availability of potassium, calcium, magnesium when the verdete is subjected to different doses of humic acid and phosphoric acid . Incubation tests were conducted in jars with polyurethane use Dystrophic Red clayey, which were incubated treatments of different doses of phosphoric acid; phosphoric acid + humic acid; humic acid, and increasing the range the 235 to 1.000%. The test was conducted for 90 days, two samples were taken at 45 days and 90 days after hatching. Carried out to determine the potassium content according to the methodology described by EMBRAPA (2009). Was no effect on the availability of potassium in the different treatments and dosages of acids. Potassium release was higher when using humic acid exclusively. However, there was effect of the use of phosphoric acid and phosphoric acid + Humic acid. Calcium compared to the control we observed an increase 53-75%. And magnesium showed behavior similar to calcium. Thus it was concluded that verdigris presented to a source of potassium, increased solubility when subjected to attack by the acids tested. The humic acid was the source of acid that provided the best K. There effects of acid doses in providing K, Ca and Mg by verdete Rock.
