Item Evaluation of slow release fertilizer on the initial developmentand coffee production(Editora UFLA, 2019-10) Franco Junior, Kleso Silva; Carvalho, Julian Silva; Guimarães, Bernardino Cangussu; Barbosa, Camila Karen Reis; Brigante, Giselle Prado; Dias, Marcio de Souza; Aprelini, André; Silva, Nilton de OliveiraThe objective in this work was to evaluate the efficiency of slow release fertilizer in seedling production, initial development and first coffee production. The research was carried out at Sitio Santa Felicidade, Campestre - MG, Brazil, in a randomized block design with two treatments and ten replicates, totaling 20 experimental plots. Coffee seedlings were produced using Ciclus Substrate (20% N, 22% P2O5 and 5% K2O) and conventional fertilizers 4 kg simple super phosphate (18% P2O5) and 0.25 kg Potassium Chloride (58% K2O). The variables evaluated were size, dry and fresh matter of the shoot and root system, and the seedlings were transplanted to the field and those from Ciclus Substrate received in the first year Ciclus NS (30% N) and in the second year. NK (19-00-19) and conventionally produced with conventional fertilizers (20-00-20 and 25-00-25 respectively), the variables evaluated were: shoot growth, length and number of plagiotropic branch internodes Slow release fertilizer ciclus Substrate has been found to be a viable technology for the production of arabica coffee seedlings, coffee planting NS provides good plant development and coffee producing NK provides good plant growth and higher productivity.Item Sites and sampling tools in the soil fertility evaluation of coffee plants in production(Editora UFLA, 2019-07) Mantovani, José Ricardo; Lima, José Antônio; Garcia, Ciro Pozzi; Rezende, Tiago TeruelIn soil sampling, the collection site and the tool used may induce errors that can compromise the results of the chemical analysis and, consequently, the definition of corrective and fertilizer doses. The objective in this study was to evaluate soil sampling sites and tools in a coffee growing area. The experiment was carried out in a field in the municipality of Alfenas-MG, in a 35-year coffee field. A randomized block design was used in a 3 x 5 factorial scheme and 4 replications, totaling 60 experimental units. The treatments consisted of 3 sampling sites: in the fertilizer strip (located in the projection of the plant canopy); between rows; and in the total area, with 1/3 of the samples collected under the canopy and close to the plant stem, 1/3 in the canopy projection and 1/3 collected between rows; and 5 sampling tools: Dutch auger; screw auger; probe; hoe and drill. Soil samples were collected at a depth of 0 to 0.2 m, and each composite sample was obtained by assembling and mixing 20 single samples. At each sampling point, an area of 2m 2 was delimited, in which simple samples were collected in all the evaluated places and with all the tools used. The following parameters were determined in the soil samples: pH in CaCl 2 ; potential acidity (H+Al); organic matter; P, extracted by Mehlich; K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and base saturation. In a coffee-growing area, the fertilizer strip (canopy projection) has topsoil with higher acidity and lower contents of organic matter and nutrients P, K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ than between rows. The tools used for soil sampling do not influence the results of soil chemical analysis in the coffee-growing area.Item Ionic speciation in a dystrophic red latosol under coffee crop high doses of gypsum(Editora UFLA, 2019-07-03) Ramos, Bárbara Zini; Lima, José Maria de; Serafim, Milson Evaldo; Coscione, Aline Renée; Ferraz, Raul Magalhães; Amorim, Lucas Mota; Lopes, GuilhermeThe cultivation of coffe crops in Brazil, especially on Latosols, has been increasing over the years, despite limitations such as aluminum toxicity, low fertility and very long drought periods. In this scenario, soil amendments to mitigate these restraints are necessary. Since these limitations are not restricted to the arable layer, application of gypsum becomes an efficient alternative to sustain soil fertility and deepen the root system to get water from the deeper layers of soil. However, high doses of gypsum can cause unbalance among Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ and K + . The objective of this work was to evaluate these bases as well as their ionic pairs, and the presence of sulfate along the soil profile 16 months after the application of high gypsum doses in a Latosol under coffee crops. An inicial dose of gypsum was applied in the entire area, followed by four treatments, in triplicate and randomized blocks, set as follows: G0 - zero gypsum applied over the planting line after the initial soil preparation; G7- 7 t ha -1 of gypsum in the planting line (1.75 kg m -1 ); G56 - 56 t ha -1 of gypsum in the planting line (14 kg m -1 ), all with brachiaria between the coffee planting lines; and CV7 - 7 t ha -1 of gypsum in the line and no brachiaria between the planting lines. The soil profile was sampled in layers up to 2.40 m depth and the soil solution was extracted by suctioning the sample-saturated paste. Following this extraction, the soil solution was analyzed by combustion for total carbon contents, ion chromatography and ICP-OES/flame photometry, for chemical species, and speciation was done using Minteq software. After 16 months of gypsum application, 96% of K + in soil solution was at 0.35 to 0.45 m in its free form. Leaching of Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ occurred predominantly in their free forms, although a more significant contribution of CaSO 40 and MgSO 40 ionic pairs was observed when compared to K 2 SO 40.Item Influence of the use of coverage plants and the bioactivator in the physical-biological characteristics of soil cultivated with coffee(Editora UFLA, 2019-01) Franco Junior, Kleso Silva; Florentino, Ligiane Aparecida; Dias, Marcio de Souza; Franco, Thais CristinaOne of the alternatives to increase productivity and without harming the environment is the use of green cover associated with soil bioactivators. However, there are still incipient studies reporting the association influence of these two techniques on soil quality. In this sense, the aim in this work was to evaluate the Penergetic ® bioactivator effect associated to different cover plants on the physical and biological characteristics of the soil cultivated with coffee tree. The experiment was carried out in a coffee field with Catuaí Vermelho cultivar IAC 144, in a randomized block design in a factorial scheme 4 x 2, consisting of control (without plant cover); oats (Avena strigosa) + forage turnip (Raphanus sativus); oats (Avena strigosa) + forage turnip (Raphanus sativus L) + lupine (Lupinus albus) + rye (Secale cereale) + vetch (Vicia sativa) (OFLRV); Brachiaria brizantha (Urochloa brizantha), associated or not with the Penergetic ® bioactivator use. The experiment was conducted for 6 months and after that period physical and biological soil characteristics were analyzed. The data were submitted to variance analysis and the means of treatment were grouped by the Scott-Knott test at 5% probability. The treatments containing cover plants had lower temperature and greater water retention. The bioactivator use reduced the nematodes population from the Meloidogyne genus and when associated to the cover plants showed increased the density of diazotrophic bacteria and solubilizers of phosphorus and potassium.Item Coffee land cover changes analyses: a study case in São Paulo state(Editora UFLA, 2019-04) Coltri, Priscila Pereira; Lima, Paulo Renato; Vicente, Andrea Koga-; Gonçalves, Renata Ribeiro do ValleIn this research, we combine data analyses with hotspots method to identify the spatio-temporal trend of São Paulo’s coffee cultivation area. Our hypothesis is that coffee cultivation area has been changing significantly in the study area since 1990. Therefore, the main goal of this research was to map the spatial pattern of coffee land use change. For coffee land use diagnostics, official data of cultivated area, hotspot analyses and growth rate were used. The results demonstrated that coffee cultivation area decreased and concentrated in smaller areas, which are traditionally recognized as “coffee quality regions”. The producer size analyses evidenced that, not only the localization, but also the producer profile changes as well. Smallholders increased but medium and large producers decreased significantly in the studied period. The coffee abandonment analyses demonstrated that, over the study period, 51.46% of the coffee area cultivated in the study region was abandoned.Item Nitrogen fertilizers technologies for coffee plants(Editora UFLA, 2019-01) Chagas, Wantuir Filipe Teixeira; Silva, Douglas Ramos Guelfi; Lacerda, Jordana Reis; Pinto, Leandro Campos; Andrade, André Baldansi; Faquin, ValdemarThe application of urea in coffee crop has caused high losses of nitrogen (N) by volatilization, causing low use and recovery of this nutrient. This low use of N may interfere in the growth and nutrition of the coffee crop and thus, influence the efficiency of the nitrogen fertilization. The aim in this work was to assess the growth, nutritional and physiological characteristics and the agronomic efficiency of the nitrogen fertilization with different nitrogen fertilizer technologies. The experiment was performed in a greenhouse in pots with a volume of 14 L. In each pot, it was performed the transplanting of two plants of coffee. The experimental design was entirely randomized, with four replicates. The following nitrogen fertilizers were applied in the dose of 10g pot -1 , devided into three applications with interval of 50 days: Conventional urea; ammonium nitrate; urea + formaldehyde; Polyblen Extend ® ; Polyblen Montanha ® ; Urea + polyurethane; urea + plastic resin; ammonium sulfate + CaCO 3 and the control, without N application. After cropping, it was evaluated the growth, nutritional and physiological parameters. Afterward, it was calculated two agronomic efficiency index of the nitrogen fertilization. The highest values of plants height, the total dry mass of plants and leaf area in coffee seedlings were found with the application of Polyblen Extend ® . This blend also provided higher accumulation of N in the leaf and the whole plant. The application of Polyblen Extend ® provided higher agronomic efficiency and also enhanced the photosynthetic rate in the coffee plants.Item Coffee silverskin and expired coffee powder used as organic fertilizers(Editora UFLA, 2019-01) Carnier, Ruan; Berton, Ronaldo Severiano; Coscione, Aline Renee; Pires, Adriana Marlene Moreno; Corbo, Jessica ZuanazziThe coffee industry produces a wide range of organic wastes, some in large amounts, and most of them do not have a well-defined final disposal. The agricultural use of these wastes can be based on the recycling of nitrogen (N), but their chemical characterization and evaluation with soil under controlled conditions are required. The aim in this work was to evaluate the use of coffee silverskin and expired coffee powder as organic fertilizers. The wastes were chemically characterized according to CONAMA’S resolution No. 375 and passed through Brazil’s Agriculture Ministry normative for organic fertilizers. A greenhouse experiment with Rhodic Ferralsol soil and maize as a model plant was carried out to obtain the agronomic efficiency index (AEI) for nitrogen. Three treatments were considered: one control (without waste), ammonium nitrate as a mineral reference, and both organic wastes, at a dose of 450 mg of Kjeldahl nitrogen per pot, in triplicate. The characterization results were favorable to the wastes as nitrogen sources for agriculture. However, the AEIs obtained were low (0.5 and 7.9% for the expired coffee powder and the coffee silverskin, respectively) compared to that of the mineral reference (92%). Although coffee silverskin and expired coffee powder showed nitrogen levels were well above the minimum require by normative (0.5 % m/m), its use as organic fertilizers (as exclusive sources of N) is not recommended since less than 10% of N was available as showed by the AEI index.Item Effect of cover crops and bioactivators in coffee production and chemical properties of soil(Editora UFLA, 2018-10) Franco Junior, Kleso Silva; Terra, Ana Beatriz Carvalho; Teruel, Tiago Rezende; Mantovani, José Ricardo; Florentino, Ligiane AparecidaCoffee cultivation has great socio-economic relevance in Brazil for the employment and income generation and there is currently a constant search for sustainable management techniques. Among them, we can mention the use of cover crops and soil bioactivators. However, studies relating the use of these two techniques are still incipient. Based on this, the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of the Penergetic® bioactivator associated with different cover crops on chemical properties of soil and coffee productivity. The experiment was carried out in a coffee field with Catuaí Vermelho cultivar IAC 144, in a randomized block design in a factorial scheme 4 (soil cover) x 2 (use or not of the Penergetic® bioactivator), consisting of control (without plant cover); oats (Avena strigosa) + forage turnip (Raphanus sativus ); oats (Avena strigosa) + forage turnip (Raphanus sativus ) + lupine (Lupinus albus) + rye (Secale cereale) + vetch (Vicia sativa); Brachiaria brizantha (Urochloa brizantha), associated or not with the use of the Penergetic® bioactivator. The experiment was conducted for 6 months and after that period, the chemical properties of soil, the nutrient contents of the coffee plants, the development of the branches and the coffee productivity were analyzed. Data were analyzed by the Scott Knott test at 5% probability. It was verified the interaction between cover crops and the use of the Penergetic® bioactivator, positively influencing soil chemical characteristics, coffee nutrition and productivity.Item Models identity generated in neutron probe calibration in latosol cultivated with coffee and signalgrass(Editora UFLA, 2018-10) Borges, Inácio Barbosa; Rocha, Omar Cruz; Malaquias, Juaci Vitória; Fagioli, Marcelo; Sá, Marcos Aurélio Carolino de; Guerra, Antônio FernandoThe cover plants affects soil spatial variability interfering with soil moisture and density, leading to doubts about the need for calibration of the neutron probe for different management systems. The objective of this study was to evaluate the Model Identity Method in the verification of equality of linear regressions resulting from the calibration of a neutron probe for different layers, as a function of signalgrass management as a cover crop between rows of soil coffee crop in the Brazilian Central Cerrado. Aluminum tubes were installed to access the probe and two saturation basins were built in a coffee area, irrigated by a central pivot, in an Oxisol, with two management systems, T (Traditional with bare soil) and Sg (Signalgrass in the row). Samples were taken at depths of 0-0.20; 0.20-0.40; 0.40-0.60; and 0.60-0.80 m for determination of gravimetric moisture and density, and the volumetric moisture was determined to follow the drying of the soil. Concomitantly, measurements were taken with the neutron probe in these layers. Two calibration curves were constructed for each layer, which were compared by the above method. It was observed that treatment Sg yielded differences in soil water storage in the 0.20- 0.40 m layer, differing from treatment T. The statistical method allowed the observation of equality of regressions between treatments Sg and T at depths 0-0.20, 0.40-0.60, and 0.60-0.80 m; it also showed the need for different regression curves per layer, besides justifying the need for neutron probe calibration for each specific local condition.Item Magnesium in the dynamics of carbohydrates and antioxidant metabolism of coffee seedlings in two irradiance levels(Editora UFLA, 2018-07) Dias, Kaio Gonçalves de Lima; Guimarães, Paulo Tácito Gontijo; Furtini Neto, Antônio Eduardo; Faquin, Valdemar; Pádua, Eduane José de; Silveira, Helbert Rezende Oliveira deThe aim of this study was to verify the physiological impacts and the carbohydrate dynamics of Coffea arabica, seedlings subjected to increasing concentrations of magnesium (Mg) and two irradiance levels. Methods: The experiment was carried out in growth chambers with nutrient solution. The treatments were five concentrations of Mg (0, 48, 96, 192, and 384 mg L-1 ) and two irradiance levels (80 and 320 μmol of photons m-2 s-1 ). The coffee seedlings were under the treatments for 90 days. Results: The leaves with deficiency or excess of Mg exposed to the irradiance of 320 μmol of photons m -2 s-1 accumulated more carbohydrates than those exposed to 80 μmol of photons m 2 s-1 . The accumulation of carbohydrates in the leaves increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes due to the increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Leaves exposed to 320 μmol of photons m-2 s-1 exhibited symptoms of scald by the sun caused by photo-oxidation. The scald was more intense in plants with abnormal concentrations of Mg. The antioxidant system of the coffee tree is closely relates to the Mg supply and irradiance levels. Concentrations of Mg between 48 and 96 mg L-1 functioned as a mitigating agent of oxidative stress under stressful conditions caused by high irradiance level.
