é possível economizar água sem perder a qualidade na produção de mudas de guanandi?

Abstract

In this study we examined if the irrigation depths (8, 11 and 14 mm), applied daily, splitted in two frequencies (two and four times a day) affect the seedling quality of Calophyllum brasiliense Cambess. (Guanandi) at nursery and initial development after planting in pot. The 11 mm irrigation depth produces the same amount of seedlings with suitable root systems for planting as the 14 mm irrigation depth and save 21% of water. The 11 mm irrigation depth, splitted in two times a day, compared to 14 mm irrigation depth, produces higher or equal morphological development, which continues after planting.
