Growth and development physiology of tomato fertirrigated with wastewater from swine

Abstract

In this study aimed to evaluate the growth and physiological development parameters of tomato fertirrigated with wastewater from swine (WS). For this, tomatoes of variety Fanny TY were cultivated in lysimeters of drainage under protected environment and fertirrigated with WS different doses with and without application of fertilizer complementation. The results showed that: the tomatoes subjected to different treatments showed no differences in time of bloom, stem diameter, number of expanded leaf, pre-dawn leaf-water potential, photosynthetic rate, stomatic conductance and breathing tomato. Leaf analysis showed that WS applied in any doses, supplied the needs nutritional of tomato.
