Rendimiento y calidad del cultivo del brócoli Brassica oleracea var. Itálica manejado con abonos orgánicos

Abstract

The thesis "Performance and quality of the crop of broccoli (Brassica oleracea var Italica) managed with organic fertilizers" was held in the parish Solano - Déleg - Cañar, at 2160 meters with 729,148 9,690,596 latitude and longitude whose objective was to determine the effect of organic fertilizers on the effect and quality of crops as an alternative to diversify the local horticultural production. The factors evaluated were: Organic fertilizers (bocashi, Bioabor and vermicomposting) with three doses of application compared to absolute control in a Randomized Block Design (DBA) in Bi factorial arrangement (A x B) (3x3) where: A (organic fertilizer) and B (application rate), totaling 9 treatments and 4 replications, plus the absolute control at 40 experimental units were obtained. The Bioabor treatment (15000 Kg / ha) variable height, at 60 days after transplanting and at harvest time acquired the best results with 33.85 and 37.6 cm respectively. The treatment of worm humus (15000 Kg / ha) gave the best results for: weight (376.27 g); diameter (20.46 cm); compactness of the pellet (18.71 g / cm); yield (16497.94 kg / ha); fewer pests (2.90) and plant health of the pellet (good condition); and the highest benefit / cost ($ 1.20). Treatments: Bioabor (10,000 kg / ha) and bocashi (5000 kg / ha) obtained high protein content (25.96%) and fat (3.35%), respectively.
