    Recently, the cultivation of Coffea canephora species has expanded as a consequence of climate change effects and emerging markets that use this cof-fee as raw material. To meet such demands of production, it is necessary to also improve yield in cultivated areas. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate Conilon coffee clones to identify the most promising fitting material for the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais, as well as to analyze the effect of the genotype x biennium interaction and estimate correlation coefficients among evaluated characteristics. Vegetative vigor, yield, main pests and diseases were evaluated in 36 clones from Incaper, ES. The statistical analyses considered the averages of each biennium: Biennium 1 (B1) - 2005/2006; Biennium 2 (B2) - 2007/2008; Biennium 3 (B3) - 2009/2010, and also the average of three biennia (A3B). Univariate and joint statistical analysis were performed, as well as estimates of phenotypic, genotypic and environmental correlation coefficients among assessed characteristics. A wide variability among clones was observed for most of the evaluated characteristics for both each biennium and the average of three biennia. The severities of most diseases have reduced over the years of cultivation. The genotypic correlation coefficients have overcome phenotypic and environmental ones. In general, pests and diseases severities showed significant and negative correlations with vegetative vigor and yield. On the other hand, the last two characteristics were posi-tively correlated. It was also evidenced a certain diversity among clones for most of the evaluated traits. Clone x biennium interaction was significant only for yield and leaf rust severity. There are negative correlations among the characteristics associated with yield and pests and diseases occurrences, which make it possible the use of yield variable as a selection parameter. Clones 24, 23, 28, 26, 21, 29 and 06 MG/ES present a higher potential for cultivation in the Zona da Mata of Minas Gerais.

    Decomposition and nitrogen mineralization from green manures intercropped with coffee tree

    The knowledge about the rate of decomposition and nitrogen mineralization of green manures provides synchronization with the higher absorption stage by the coffee tree. The rate of decomposition and nitrogen mineralization varies according to the species of green manure and with the environmental factors. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the decomposition and nitrogen mineralization of two green manures intercropped with coffee trees for three different periods. The experiment was divided into two designs for statistical analysis, one referring to the characterization of plant material (fresh mass, dry matter, dry matter content, nitrogen concentration and accumulation in the jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis) and hyacinth bean (Dolichos lablab) and another to evaluate the rate of decomposition and N mineralization of these species. The decomposition rate decreased in both species as their growth time increased in the field. The decomposition was influenced by the phenology of green manures. Nitrogen mineralization of the jack bean decreased as the growth period in the field increased and was faster than hyacinth bean only when cut at 60 days. The N mineralization was slower than mass decomposition in both species.

    Intercropping period between species of green manures and organically-fertilized coffee plantation
    (Editora UFLA, 2018-01) Cardoso, Rosileyde Gonçalves Siqueira; Pedrosa, Adriene Woods; Rodrigues, Mateus Cupertino; Santos, Ricardo Henrique Silva; Martinez, Hermínia Emília Prieto; Cecon, Paulo Roberto
    The adequate supply of nitrogen to coffee plantation is one of the main challenges of organic agriculture. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of organic fertilization with two legume species in different intercropping periods on nitrogen nutrition, initial growth and productivity of coffee plantation. The experimental design was in randomized blocks, in 2x4 split-plot factorial design, being that the plot consisted of two intercrops (coffee+jack bean and coffee+hyacinth bean) and the four intercropping periods (30, 60, 90 and 120 days after sowing of the legume), and the subplot by 50% and 100% of fertilization for the coffee plantation. The increase in the intercropping period between legumes and coffee plantation favored a greater increase in height and node number of coffee trees, besides showing higher heights when fertilized with 50% of the recommended dose and intercropped with hyacinth bean. The intercropping with the hyacinth bean resulted in a larger crown diameter of coffee trees in 2010 and a larger diameter accumulated in the two evaluated years. Higher N contents were found in coffee trees fertilized with 100% of the recommended dose. The legumes supplied the nutritional requirements of the coffee harvest fertilized with 50% of the dose. The bean yield of the processed coffee is not affected by the intercropping with the green manures of jack bean or hyacinth bean.

    Ambiente e variedades influenciam a qualidade de cafés das matas de Minas
    (Editora UFLA, 2017-04) Zaidan, Úrsula Ramos; Corrêa, Paulo Cesar; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Cecon, Paulo Roberto
    O café é um produto agrícola que tem seu valor de mercado ajustado de acordo com a qualidade final da bebida, que pode ser influenciada por vários fatores, tais como: fatores ambientais e variedade. Diante disso, objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar os efeitos da orientação da encosta da montanha, altitude e variedade da planta, sobre a qualidade potencial dos cafés produzidos na região das Matas de Minas (entre altitudes que variam de 600 a 1200 m). Frutos de café (Coffea arabica) das variedades “Catuaí Vermelho” e “Catuaí Amarelo”, provenientes de 14 municípios da região, foram colhidos manualmente no ponto de maturação fisiológica, os quais foram processados, beneficiados e armazenados. Em seguida foram feitas análises descritivas qualitativas por Juízes Certificadores, pelo teste de degustação segundo critérios da Brazil Specialty Coffee Association. Por meio da análise sensorial da bebida, foram atribuídas notas aos atributos de qualidade dos cafés objetivando classificá-los de acordo com a influência dos fatores do ambiente e da variedade. Para análise das notas foi adotada a “Estatística Descritiva” e o “Método de Tocher”. A partir dos resultados obtidos, pode-se observar que os fatores ambientais e a variedade não exercem influência sobre a qualidade da bebida de forma isolada, todavia, contribuem de forma conjunta para formar as características da bebida produzida na região. A maior pontuação média foi obtida pela combinação de fatores, variedade “Catuaí Amarelo” estrato de altitude abaixo de 700 m e encosta Noruega da montanha, mostrando grande potencial de expressão da qualidade sensorial da bebida.
