ABSTRACT: Accidents related to the rupture of iron ore tailings dams have dramatically impacted on the Brazilian natural ecosystem. So, the development of strategies to recover soil organic matter levels and build-up Technosols are required. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of N-mineral and -organic fertilization and the rhizospheric effect on soil organic matter mineralization from Technosols built under iron ore tailings. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse; we used a factorial scheme 2 × 2 × […]
Forms of lime application, cover crops and nitrogen rates in maize
01/Apr/2013
The no-tillage (NT) management is widely used in the Cerrado region, but some questions remain unanswered, for example about the need of liming and adequate nitrogen rates for commercial crops when preceded by cover crops. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of precedent cover crops on the maize demand for nitrogen fertilization and forms of liming preceding the adoption of no-tillage management (NT) in different growing seasons. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block factorial design 5 x […]
Soil chemical attributes of a red latosol under different systems of preparation, management, and covering plants
01/Feb/2007
Soil management systems and fertilization types make differentiated amounts of mineral elements in the soil profile available. The objective of this study was to verify alterations in chemical attributes of a Red Latosol (Typic Haplustox) of Brazilian Savannah under organic and mineral fertilization, vegetation cover in no tillage and conventional tillage systems, and with bean and cotton crops. The experiment had a randomized complete block design with split-plots. Two treatments of soil preparation (no tillage and conventional tillage) were installed […]
Uptake of N, P and K by green manure species under different sowing times and planting spacings in cerrado soil
01/Dec/1999
Planting spacings and sowing dates may influence nutrient absorption. Therefore, a field experiment was carried out from 1991 to 1992, at the experimental station of Embrapa/Soil Research National Center, located in Senador Canedo, Goiás, Brazil, to determine the N, P and K uptake levels in the aerial part of sunhemp (Crotalaria juncea), Crotalaria ochroleuca, black velvet bean (Mucuna aterrima) and pigeonpea cv. Kaki (Cajanus cajan), under three sowing times (beginning, middle and end of the growing season) and two spacings […]
