Parâmetros ósseos de frangos de corte alimentados com rações contendo fitase e baixos níveis de fósforo disponível e proteína bruta

504 (five hundred four) 1 day old male chicks from a commercial broiler line (Ag Ross 308) were used, distributed in 12 treatments, with 6 replicates per treatment. The experimental design was casually blocked and treatments were organized in a 2x2x3 factorial arrangement: two available phosphorus levels (0.45 and 0.34%), two phytase inclusion levels (0 and 1200 FTU/kg) and three crude protein levels (22.5; 20.5 and 18.5%). Tibia calcium percentage was influenced by protein and phosphorus levels in the diet, when using phytase. Tibia ash levels showed a linear effect when enzymes were added and showed a quadractic effect without it, and the higher value was observed with 22.5% crude protein in the diet. With higher phosphorus levels a linear effect was observed between crude protein in the diet and tibia ash weights, as a higher protein level had lower tíbia ash weight.

Características agronômicas do trigo em função de Azospirillum brasilense, ácidos húmicos e nitrogênio em casa de vegetação

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the combined use of Azospirillum brasilense, humic acid and different levels of nitrogen on agronomic characteristics of wheat under greenhouse conditions. The experiments were installed on May 21, 2011 and proceeded to harvest on September 13, 2011. The experimental design was a randomized complete block in a 4 x 4 factorial design with four replications. The first factor relates to the combination of strain Ab-V5 of A. brasilense with humic acids, with the following treatments: control, Ab-V5, humic acid and Ab-V5 + humic acid and the second factor refers to nitrogen levels (0, 30, 60 and 90 kg ha-1 N). Most variables in the analysis had a positive linear effect of treatments depending on nitrogen fertilization, and only for variable weight of hundred grains, the negative effect was linear. There were no significant differences between the variances in grain production. It was concluded that the combined use of Ab-V5 + humic acid promotes the production mainly of dry leaves and are not responsive to nitrogen fertilizer for other productive components under study, as well as grain yield.

Adubação nitrogenada em feijoeiro em sucessão a cultivo solteiro e consorciado de milho e Urochloa ruziziensis

The expansion of the no-tillage system, in Brazil, has increasingly diversified the ways in which the production methods are established and managed. This study aimed at evaluating the influence of preceding crops such as mayze and Urochloa ruziziensis, as well as their intercropping, in the presence and absence of seed inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense, and the cover nitrogen supplying on common bean development, production components and grain yield. The study was carried out in Selvíria, Mato Grosso do Sul State, Brazil, in the 2011/2012 crop season. The experimental design was randomized blocks, with four replications, in a 8x4 factorial scheme, with treatments consisting of a combination of cover crops (associations of mayze, U. ruziziensis and A. brasilense) and cover nitrogen doses on common bean (0 kg ha-1, 30 kg ha-1, 60 kg ha-1 and 90 kg ha-1). The preceding crops affected the common bean grain yield, with the mayze and Urochloa intercropping, both inoculated, being the best option. The initial common bean population was not affected by previous crops. The cover nitrogen application did not affect the common bean grain yield under winter irrigation, for the no-tillage system.

Coberturas vegetais e doses de nitrogênio em trigo sob sistema plantio direto

The application of conservation practices in production systems is essential to the sustainability of the agricultural production capacity. The use of different cover crops can reduce the need of topdressing nitrogen fertilizers in wheat crops. This study aimed at evaluating the influence of cover crops residues (millet, sunn hemp, pigeon pea, millet + sunn hemp, millet + pigeon pea and fallow ground), grown previously to the summer crop (rice), and topdressing nitrogen doses (0 kg ha-1, 25 kg ha-1, 50 kg ha-1, 75 kg ha-1, 100 kg ha-1 and 125 kg ha-1), in the development and yield of wheat under no-tillage system. The experiment was carried out in Selvíria, Mato Grosso do Sul State, Brazil, in a Red Oxisol, in 2009/2010 and 2010/2011. The experimental design was randomized blocks, in a 6x6 factorial scheme. The cover crops developed during August/October (2009/2010) and September/November (2010/2011), previously to the summer crop, with the chemical desiccation performed respectively at 73 and 55 days after sowing. The wheat (winter) was sown in May, in both periods, and harvested at 113 (2009/2010) and 106 (2010/2011) days after emergence. The cover crops residues of pigeon pea, sunn hemp and millet + sunn hemp, preceding wheat, provided higher wheat yields, relatively to the fallow ground. The wheat yield showed a quadratic response to the increase in the nitrogen availability, reaching higher yields with the nitrogen doses estimated in 113 kg ha-1 (2010) and 98 kg ha-1 (2011).

Popping expansion and yield responses of popcorn cultivars under different row spacings and plant populations

The objective of this work was to evaluate the agronomic traits and the popping expansion index of three Brazilian popcorn cultivars under different row spacings and plant populations. The trials were performed during two crop seasons, under field conditions. The experimental design used was a randomized complete block, in a split-split plot, with 27 treatments and four replicates. Treatments were represented in a triple factorial arrangement: three row spacings (0.40, 0.60, and 0.80 m), three plant populations (40,000, 60,000, and 80,000 plants per hectare), and three popcorn cultivars (IAC-TC 01, IAC 12, and Zelia). The increase in plant population causes a reduction in the number of grains per ear, lower prolificacy, and grain weight loss. Cultivar grain yield is affected by row spacing and popcorn plant population. Cultivar IAC 12 shows highest grain yield under row spacings of 0.40 and 0.60 m and plant population between 60,000 and 80,000 plants per hectare. The popping expansion index is not affected by row spacing or plant population.

Use of Moringa oleífera Lamarck leaf extract as sugarcane juice clarifier: effects on clarifed juice and sugar

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Moringa oleifera Lam. leaf extract on the sedimentation of impurities in the treatment of sugarcane juice and the effects on sugar quality and on the clarified juice. The experimental design used was a 4x2 factorial arrangement with four replications. The main treatments performed included the extracted original sugarcane juice, the synthetic polyelectrolyte (Flomex 9076), the leaf extract, and a control. The secondary treatments consisted of the sugarcane varieties RB92579 and RB867515. The clarification process used was simple defecation, in which the flocculating agents and the juice, limed and heated, were poured simultaneously into a decanter. The microbiological and chemico-technological characteristics of the extracted and clarified juices were evaluated. The clarified juice was concentrated up to 60° Brix (syrup) and subjected to boiling in a pilot pan using seeds to perform the graining: The sugar was recovered by centrifugation and analyzed for microbiological and chemico-technological characteristics. It was concluded that the use of the Moringa oleifera Lam. leaves extract resulted in a better quality of clarified juice and sugar.

Produção de beterraba em função do espaçamento

Atualmente alguns híbridos importados têm substituído as tradicionais cultivares de beterraba de mesa, sem no entanto, desenvolver estudos básicos sobre a melhor densidade de plantio para as condições brasileiras. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do espaçamento entre linhas e entre plantas na produção de beterraba híbrido Boro. O experimento foi conduzido em campo da UNESP em Botucatu-SP, de 10 de setembro a 8 de dezembro de 2010. Foram estudados dois fatores, espaçamentos entre linhas (EL) de 20 e 25 cm, e 7,5; 10,0 e 12,5 cm entre plantas (EP), no esquema fatorial 2 EL x 3 EP, totalizando seis tratamentos (populações variando de 246.400 a 513.333 plantas ha-1, considerando-se canteiros com 1,0 m de largura e espaço entre canteiros de 0,3 m). O delineamento experimental foi em blocos ao acaso, com cinco repetições e parcelas de 2 m2. As mudas foram produzidas em bandejas de polipropileno com 288 células. A irrigação foi por aspersão e a adubação foi igual para todos os tratamentos, seguindo a recomendação para o estado de São Paulo. A maior massa fresca por raiz (116,1 g) foi obtida no EL de 25,0 cm. Em relação ao comprimento da raiz, observaram-se diferenças significativas apenas para o EP, sendo que o maior espaçamento, 12,5 cm, resultou em maior comprimento (63,1 mm). Foram obtidos maiores valores de diâmetro das raízes quanto maiores os EP (65,6 mm para 12,5 cm) e EL (63,1 mm para 25 cm). A maior produtividade (44,7 t ha-1) foi obtida no menor EP (7,5 cm), enquanto que o EL não afetou a produtividade. Pode-se concluir que o melhor EP foi de 7,5 cm pela maior produtividade. Quanto ao tamanho da raiz, tanto o maior EL (25 cm) como o maior EP (12,5 cm) resultaram em raízes com maiores massa média e diâmetro.
