“…The use of shade netting in pineapple cultivation to protect fruits from sunburn due to high radiation and improve yield has been reported [19][20][21]. However, there are few studies reporting on the effect of shading or a lack of light [33] from planting to harvest.…”

The use of organic sources presents itself as a viable alternative to mitigate the excessive reliance on chemical fertilizers in agricultural practices. However, in the realm of pineapple cultivation, research exploring the synergy between chemical and organic fertilizers remains scarce. In this context, the objective of this research was to evaluate the impact of the combination of chemical and organic fertilizers on the growth and yield of the MD-2 pineapple cultivar under two shade net conditions (installed 45 and 250 days after planting). The experiment was conducted in a split-plot design, with the main plot being the shade net conditions and the sub-plots the five fertilization treatments, which were applied 18 times via drip irrigation (control, 100% chemical fertilization, 50% reduced chemical fertilization, organic fertilization, and a combination of 50% chemical fertilization with organic fertilization). The results showed that the early installation of shade netting 45 days after planting decreases the growth and yield of pineapple; thus, the use of shade netting at this age is not recommended. Regarding fertilization, the combination of 50% chemical fertilization with organic fertilization showed similar growth and yield values compared to 100% conventional chemical fertilization under both shade net conditions. Furthermore, this combination presented similar nitrate and potassium values in the plant and did not negatively affect malic acid content. Therefore, the use of organic fertilizers in pineapple cultivation is a promising strategy to reduce the excessive use of chemical fertilizers, and it could also improve soil fertility.

“…In certain regions of pineapple cultivation, where sunlight is intense, the installation of shade netting after floral induction is common to prevent severe fruit sunburn and preserve quality [19,20]. Additionally, it has been reported that the use of shade nets increases pineapple crop productivity [21].…”

“…O Brasil é o segundo maior produtor de abacaxi, com uma produção de 2.426 mil toneladas em 2019, contudo, a produtividade é baixa (FAOSTAT, 2020), causada, principalmente, pelas doenças, com destaque da fusariose (Fusarium guttiforme), pois o cultivo é baseado principalmente na cultivar Pérola, muito susceptível a esta doença (REINHARDT et al, 2019). Já existem cultivares resistentes a fusariose, como a cultivar Vitória, que, além da ausência de espinhos nas folhas e frutos, apresenta elevado teor de sólidos solúveis (15°Brix) (VENTURA et al, 2009).…”
