Manejo agroecológico del Pennisetum clandestinum (Kikuyo) con varios niveles de abono orgánico comercial más una bases de fertilizante enraizador en suelos volcánicos

Abstract

In Penipe canton, Bilbaoparish, they are affected by intermittent emissions of ash and gases produced by volcanic eruptions which affect cropss and pasture. It is decreasing their production and economy of the people therefore agro-ecological management of Pennisetum clandestinum (kikuyo) with various levels of comercial organic fertilizer and a base of enraizador fertilizer on volcanic soil in a crop established kikuyu. The same that were distributed under a design randomized complete block. To determine the best response was raised to known the forage production in fresh and dry basis, nutritional value, profitability. The use of 3 liters/ha, comercial organic fertilizer in the first cut recorded the best heights. At 15 days ( 15,22 cm) 30 days (18,94 cm) and 45 days (23,9 cm) significant differences (P< 0,001), increased production of Green fodder (22,34 tn FV/ha/cut), dry matter (DM 3,069 tn DM/ha/cut). In the bromatological evaluation showed variability of treatments vs witness. In the second cut the foraging behavior was similar to the first, which is attributed to the use of 3 liters/ha, comercial organic fertilizer. The outperformance is attributable to T3, whit a cost of ($ 1,51) profit. So it is concluded that the T3 shows superior performance and is recommended to apply 3 liters/ha, comercial organic fertilizer on pastures Pennisetum clandestinum by organic foliar fertilization.
