Avaliação do desempenho produtivo de espécies hortícolas em policultivo

Abstract

The polyculture of plants consists of the simultaneous growth of species in the same area, presenting two or more diverse ones, among them the temporal distribution of food and recipes, maximizing the use of inputs and increasing profitability per area. In this sense, the objective of this research was to evaluate the productive performance of species and of different polyculture arrangements. The experiment was, with a totalized design, with Saudades-SC. Twelve treatments were tested, being: T1 (lettuce + beetroot + chic + arugula), T2 (lettuce + cassava + carrots) and T3 face + chives + parsley) 9 treatments in single crops for comparison, with 3 treatments for comparison. The head positions and all the roots of pasta and roots were fresh, the number of leaves, the height of the aerial part of the pasta, the height of roots and beetroot and the fresh and dry roots of cassava, carrots and beetroot and the head of broccoli. , in addition to productivity equivalence and profitability index (IEA). The data were analyzed with the aid of the R program, being evaluated by variance and Tutu's test (5%). The number of leaves was higher in single cultivation for arugula and cassava. Plant height at harvest was higher in polyculture, with the exception of beet, broccoli and cassava crops. The highest results of fresh and dry mass were obtained for the polyculture with the treatments T1 for the culture of broccoli, T2 with the cultures of lettuce and carrot, and in T3 for the three species (lettuce, chives and parsley). The IEA calculation obtained results greater than 1 in all polycultures, with indices of 1.51, 1.24 and 1.13 for treatments 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
