Item Yield gains of coffee plants from phosphorus fertilization may not be generalized for high density planting(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2014-05) Valadares, Samuel Vasconcelos; Neves, Júlio César Lima; Novais, Roberto Ferreira; Rosa, Gustavo Nogueira Guedes Pereira; Martinez, Hermínia Emília Prieto; Alvarez V., Víctor HugoInconclusive responses of the adult coffee plant to phosphorus fertilization have been reported in the literature, especially when dealing with application of this nutrient in high density planting systems. Thus, this study was carried out for the purpose of assessing the response of adult coffee plants at high planting density in full production (in regard to yield and their biennial cycle/stability) to the addition of different sources and application rates of P in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The experiment with coffee plants of the Catucaí Amarelo 6/30 variety was carried out over four growing seasons. Treatments were arranged in a full factorial design [(4 × 3) + 1] consisting of four P sources (monoammonium phosphate, simple superphosphate, natural reactive rock phosphate from Algeria (Djebel-Onk), and FH 550®), three P rates (100, 200, and 400 kg ha -1 year -1 of P 2 O 5 ), and an additional treatment without application of the nutrient (0 kg ha - 1 year - 1). A randomized block experimental design was used with three replicates. The four seasons were evaluated as subplots in a split plot experiment. The P contents in soil and leaves increased with increased rates of P application. However, there was no effect from P application on the yield and its biennial cycle/stability regardless of the source used over the four seasons assessed.Item Relationship between coffee leaf analysis and soil chemical analysis(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2018) Sousa, Jailson Silva; Neves, Júlio César Lima; Martinez, Herminia Emilia Prieto; Alvarez V., Víctor HugoResearch focused on adequate nutrition of plants is essential in modern coffee production to increase yield and develop more efficient management strategies with greater environmental and economic sustainability. The objectives of this study were to establish critical and optimal levels of soil fertility properties for high yielding Arabica coffee crops using the Boundary Line method and, then, relate the macronutrient contents in the diagnostic leaf of coffee to the macronutrients available in the soil using the Quadrant Diagram of the Plant-Soil Relationship (QDpsR). The study made use of a soil chemical analysis database, leaf macronutrient contents, and Arabica coffee yield from five representative coffee-growing regions in Minas Gerais. An analysis of data consistency was performed, and relative fruit yield (RFY) was related to the soil organic matter (SOM), P, K, Ca, and Mg contents in the soil, establishing the boundary line (BL) in each graph. Equations were adjusted from the BL points, and the equation that best fit was selected. Using the QDpsR method, the response plane was divided into four quadrants, where the total leaf contents of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S were plotted as a function of the contents of SOM, P, K, Ca, and Mg in the soil, on the y and x axes of the Cartesian coordinate system. The regression equations were adjusted to the pairs of points (y, x) of quadrants III and I and were used to estimate the macronutrient sufficiency ranges from the critical and optimal levels in the soil. The BL method was used to determine the class of good soil fertility for SOM, P, K, Ca, and Mg. The QDpsR method allows determination of response curves for leaf content as a variable of soil contents, making it possible to estimate the sufficiency ranges in the diagnostic leaf of coffee: 33.4-35.8 g kg -1 of N, 1.4-1.6 g kg -1 of P, 24.4-27.0 g kg -1 of K, 11.9-13.6 g kg -1 of Ca, 3.8-4.5 g kg -1 of Mg, and 1.4-1.8 g kg -1 of S; which were consistent with the sufficiency ranges considered suitable for the crop. This study demonstrated the importance of leaf analysis as a tool for evaluation of the nutritional status of Arabica coffee since the technique is consistent with the theoretical principles underlying it.Item Respostas nutricionais de cafeeiros Catuaí e Icatu a doses de calcário em subsuperfície(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2006-11) Rodrigues, Luciana Aparecida; Martinez, Hermínia Emilia Prieto; Neves, Júlio César Lima; Novais, Roberto Ferreira; Mendonça, Sebastião Marcos deO aprofundamento do sistema radicular no solo é condicionado por relações Ca/Al adequadas, podendo a calagem subsuperficial apresentar efeito positivo no crescimento das raízes e na absorção de nutrientes. Assim sendo, foi realizado um experimento em colunas de solo, em casa de vegetação, no qual se avaliou a absorção de Al, Ca, Mg e P por duas variedades de cafeeiros (Catuaí e Icatu), uma sensível e outra tolerante ao Al, respectivamente, em função da aplicação em subsuperfície de sete doses de calcário (0,0; 0,49; 1,7; 2,9; 4,1; 6,6 e 9,3 t ha -1 ). Cultivaram-se as plantas até 6,5 meses de idade, em solo acondicionado em colunas de PVC, subdivididas em três anéis. O anel superior recebeu calcário e fertilização. Nos dois anéis inferiores, as saturações por Al (m %) variaram de 0 a 93 %. A aplicação de calcário na subsuperfície aumentou os teores de Ca e Mg na parte aérea e nas raízes e o teor de P nas folhas superiores de ambas as variedades. A eficiência de utilização de Ca na parte aérea e em raízes decresceu com a aplicação do calcário em subsuperfície para ambas as variedades, enquanto a eficiência de utilização de P diminuiu somente para a parte aérea da var. Icatu. A aplicação do calcário na subsuperfície reduziu o teor de Al na parte aérea da var. Icatu e em raízes da var. Catuaí. Os teores de P, Ca e Mg nas folhas foram adequados às variedades, independentemente da quantidade de calcário aplicada ao solo, indicando que a adubação e a correção da acidez da camada superficial do solo foram eficientes para manter a planta nutrida, independentemente do teor de Al na subsuperfície do solo.
