Item Effect of potassium sources and rates on arabica coffee yield, nutrition, and macronutrient export(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2014-09) Mancuso, Mauricio Antonio Cuzato; Soratto, Rogério Peres; Crusciol, Carlos Alexandre Costa; Castro, Gustavo Spadotti AmaralThe use of potassium (K) rock powder can be an alternative for K supply of crops. Thus, to reduce K fertilizer imports from abroad, possibilities of extracting this nutrient from Brazilian rocks are being studied. The objective was to evaluate the effect of phonolite rock powder (F2) as K source (Ekosil ® ) on the air-dried fruit yield, nutrition and macronutrient export of Arabica coffee. The experiment was carried out on a dystroferric Red Latosol (Typic Haplorthox), in Piraju, São Paulo State, Brazil, in the 2008/09 and 2009/10 growing seasons. The experimental design was a randomized complete block, in a factorial 2 × 3 + 1 arrangement, with four replications. The treatments consisted of two K sources (KCl - 58 % of K 2 O and F2 - 8.42 % K 2 O) and three rates 1⁄2-, 1-, and 2-fold the K 2 O rate recommended for coffee, i.e., 75, 150, and 300 kg ha -1 of K 2 O), plus a control (without K application). Potassium supply increased coffee yield, regardless of the source. Application of source F2 increased coffee yield similarly to KCl at the recommended K rate for coffee (150 kg ha -1 K 2 O), proving efficient as K supply for coffee. Potassium application increased macronutrient export in coffee, especially in the growing season with higher yield.Item Spacial distribution of fertigated coffee root system(Editora UFLA, 2017-01) Vicente, Marcelo Rossi; Mantovani, Everardo Chartuni; Fernandes, André Luís Teixeira; Neves, Júlio César Lima; Figueredo, Edmilson Marques; Delazari, Fábio TeixeiraThe development of coffee plant root system changes when subjected to drip irrigation and fertigation. This work aimed to evaluate the effects of different levels of fertigation on the development of coffee root system by drip irrigation in western Bahia. The experiment was carried out with Catuaí Vermelho IAC 144 coffee plants, of about 3.5 years of age, in the “Café do Rio Branco” farm, located in Barreiras – BA, and consisted of a complete randomized blocks design with 3 replicates. Treatments consisted of three levels of nitrogen and potassium fertilization (900/800, 600/500 and 300/250 kg ha -1 year -1 N and K2O), weekly distributed, by means of fertigation, throughout the process. After the fourth harvest, coffee root system was evaluated, and root length density (RLD) and root density (RD) were determined at different sampled layers. The highest root concentration, root length density (RLD), and root density (RD) were observed in the superficial layers of soil (0-20 cm), and under the dripline (30 and 70 cm from the orthotropic branch). Results showed that the lower the N and K2O levels, the higher was the development (RLD and RD) of the coffee root system.
