Avaliação do estado nutricional de bananeiras do subgrupo Cavendish no estado de São Paulo: normas dris e níveis críticos de nutrientes Nutritional diagnosis in banana in the state of São Paulo (Brazil): dris norms and critical levels
Abstract
São apresentadas normas DRIS preliminares e derivados níveis críticos de nutrientes no tecido foliar (NC) para bananeiras do subgrupo Cavendish, nas condições de cultivo do Estado de São Paulo. As normas DRIS e os NCs foram obtidos a partir de um banco de dados com 188 registros, relacionando produtividade e teores foliares de N, P, K, Ca, Mg, B, Cu, Fe, Mn e Zn das cultivares Grande Naine e Nanicão. Esses registros foram extraídos de experimentos de adubação realizados no Planalto Paulista e no Vale do Ribeira, em áreas irrigadas e de sequeiro, durante cinco ciclos de cultivo, variando fontes e doses de fertilizantes. Mesmo com a grande diversidade nas condições de cultivo, a relação entre o índice de balanço nutricional e a produtividade das plantas foi altamente significativa (R²=0,60; pPreliminary DRIS norms and leaf nutrient critical levels (NCL) for Cavendish bananas growing in plantations of São Paulo State (Brazil) are presented. DRIS norms and NCL were established from a data bank of leaf nutrient concentration (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, B, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn) and yield of banana with 188 samples. Data bank comprises information from plants of Grand Naine and Giant Cavendish growing in irrigated and non-irrigated areas, with different sources and rates of fertilizers during five crop cycles. Despite of the great diversity of cropping conditions, the regression between nutrient balance index and fruit yield was significant (R²=0.60; p<0.0001). The NCLs were derived using multiple linear regressions relating to the foliar nutrient concentration with DRIS indices of all nutrients. These values were similar to those presented in the literature, except the NCL for K which the value for local conditions was lower.
