NUTRIÇÃO DO TOMATEIRO (Lycopersicon esculentum) EM FUNÇÃO DE DOSES DE FERTILIZANTES ORGÂNICOS

Abstract

The study aimed to evaluate the effect of two doses of organic material in the nutrition of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum), cv Santa Cruz, grown in pots in an Oxisol Ultisol Distrocoeso the municipality of Rio Largo - AL. The design was in randomized blocks in factorial 2 X 4 (two and four fertilizer doses) with 5 replicates. The experimental unit consisted of a vessel with capacity for 12 dm3 containing 15 kg of soil. The fertilizer materials were: 1 fertilizer - manure from corral + chicken manure + fertilizer and the filter cake of 2 - to corral manure + chicken manure + sugar cane bagasse, in doses 0, 5, 10 and 15 t ha-1. The applications were split in the following way: 10% at the time of transplantation, and 15% at 20, 34, 48, 62, 76 and 90 days after transplanting (DAT) in coverage. The seedlings were produced in the tomato seed, on March 10, 2008, in polystyrene trays with 128 cells, after transplantation and were selected for the vessel on April 02, 2008, leaving two plants per pot . The plants were conducted in mentoring and single stem, and where, therefore, all cultural and treatment plant. There was a collection of leaves 4 + from the apex of the plant, to assess nutritional status at the beginning of flowering. Among the nutrients, the nitrogen was absorbed the most, followed by: potassium, calcium, sulfur, magnesium and phosphorus, whereas among the micronutrients, in increasing order of absorption was the following: boron, zinc, copper, manganese and iron. According to analysis of variance and regression analysis of the fertilizer did not affect the levels of nutrients in the plant, with only difference between the doses.
