This study was carried out to characterize the possible changes in the chemical nature of humic acids extracted from an Oxisol (0-10 cm) by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), in the experimental area of Embrapa Meio Ambiente, in Jaguariúna (SP), Brazil. The data were obtained after six corn cultivations, and application of variable doses of sewage sludge (dry basis) from Barueri (BSS), in the treatments: BSS0 – control without sewage sludge application; NPK – mineral fertilization as required by corn; application […]
