Custos e rentabilidade do milho em função do manejo do solo e da adubação nitrogenada

Agronomic practices that help farmers to raise yield and reduce costs must be studied to ensure agricultural sustainability. Thus, the objective of this study was to analyze economically the effect of soil management and nitrogen fertilization in maize crops. Treatments consisted of a combination of 3 soil management techniques (plow harrows + floating harrows, chisel + floating harrows, and no-tillage), 5 periods of nitrogen fertilization (control - 0 kg ha -1 N; 120 kg ha -1 after sowing (S); 120 kg ha -1 in the V 6 stage; 30 kg ha -1 (S) + 90 kg ha -1 in V 6; 30 kg ha -1 (S) + 45 kg ha -1 in V 4 + 45 kg ha -1 in V 8 The total operating cost (TOC), gross revenue (GR), operating profit (OP), profitability index (PI), break-even yield, and break-even price were estimated. It was concluded that the no-tillage system, after 11 years of management, associated with nitrogen fertilization promotes positive PI and OP, being useful to farmers.

Contributo da agricultura de conservação na prevenção do encharcamento e dos riscos de halomorfização dos solos argilosos na cultura de milho na área de influência de Alqueva

This study aims to evaluate the contribution of no-till (SD) and cover crops (CC) in mitigating the risk of salinity / sodicity of the soil. We tested whether the increase of soil infiltration rate and the reduction of the direct evaporation, achieved with a high amount of residues on the soil surface from the CC followed by SD, would enable a smaller accumulation of salts during the summer and more leaching of salt during winter. The experiment The experiment included two tillage systems: no-till associated to a winter cover crop (SD / CC) and the conventional system (SC) (chisel and disc harrows), divided into two water regimes and two levels of water salinity (0.7 dS m-1 and 2.0 dS m-1), both with adsorption sodium ratio 3. Contrary to expectations CC showed a tendency to increase salt content in Fall-Winter period, due to the reduction of the fraction available to leaching, but showed advantages in reducing long term salt content due to the improved structure of the B horizon, because decreases the tendency to the reduction of the structure of this horizon, caused typically by the permanent high moisture content during.
