Evaluación de tres Abonos Orgánicos Aplicados en los Tiempos Post Corte en la Producción de Maralfalfa Pennisetum sp.

Abstract

In the province of Pichincha Canton Quito, Gualea parish, at the “My Little Eden,” was the assessment of three organic fertilizers: humus 6 tonnes /ha (T2), bocashi 6 t/ha (T3) and vermicompost 6 tn/ha (T4), applied at two times post cut (0 to 7 days) in the production of maralfalfa (Pennisetum sp), developed in a preestablished culture, experimental units were 32,5x4 meters each, using 3 treatments T1 control (without fertilization) with 4 replicates, and having a total useful area 640 m2 . The distribution of treatments was done by a complete block design Azarbifactorial. The results report that the best yields in the study variables are obtained by applying the second replica 6 th/ha humus (T2) at 7 days after cutting, there is 58.88% basal cover, aerial cover 100% plant height of 3.33 meters, number of stems / plant 124.5, 823.65 green matter production tons / ha / year dry matter production of 123.23 tons / ha / year. In compositional analysis the best protein content (10.47%) was obtained by fertilizing with the control treatment (T1). The economic analysis indicates that the best cost benefit was recorded in T2 at 7 days post corte con 3.60. it is recommended to fertilize with 6 tons / ha of humus (T2), as it reorted the highest rates of production.
