The recovery of degraded areas is required and can contribute to reducing deforestation in the region. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of doses of Arad and NPK combinations in the management of maize in soil with low productive capacity. The experiment was conducted in Santo Antonio do Taua, Para State, in an area with degraded pasture, in a dystrophic Oxisol. The experimental design was a randomized block split plot design with four replications. The plots were four phosphate: 50, 100, 200 and 300 kg ha(-1) of P2O5 as Arad and sub-plots combination with NPK, NK, NK liming, and control (no match ). We evaluated the growth characteristics and productivity of corn. Doses of Arad influenced the plant height and number of kernels per row cob. The application of Arad combined with NPK increased grain yield.124-131porSoil correction PhosphateReactive phosphateCrop-livestockZea mays LFosfato de Arad, NPK e calagem na cultura do milho em área de pastagem degradadaPhosphate Arad NPK and combined with lime in corn on pasture degradedArtigoWOS:000340739800013Acesso abertoWOS000340739800013.pdf
