Enraizamiento de cormos de orito (Musa acuminata AA) mediante el uso de abonos orgánicos líquidos

Abstract

The objective of the present work was to determine the effects of two liquid organic fertilizers on rooting of Musa acuminata AA. The liquid organic fertilizers evaluated were as follows; Liquid humus from cattle (T1), beef manures (T2), control (T3), in 75% drench applications. Root mass (PMR), root volume (VR), root length (LR), foliage weight (PF), total leaf area (ATH), length and width were measured. The methodology followed was to make the applications from the 93 days of the sowing of the hills every 8 days and later to take data every 15 days. The data obtained at 181 days were used for the processing of the information in the statistical program INFOSTAT version 2015. According to the results obtained from the analysis of variance in the part of the radical system there was statistical significance in the PMR variable with an average of 331 , 67 although the variables LR and VR had no significance, they obtained a higher average than the other treatments with means of 178.45 and 330 respectively. Meanwhile, in the area of the plant there is statistical significance, where the liquid humus of cattle stands out in all the response variables: PF = 623, 33; LH = 108.12; AH = 46.63. Key words: Organic fertilizers, fluid, corms, root mass, root volume, drench.
