Produção do maracujazeiro-amarelo cultivado sob diferentes manejos agroecológicos e a qualidade do suco

Abstract

The passion fruit is of family of Passifloraceae, what to cover around 200 species. The species, in your mayors, have originated in tropical American. The species Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa is Knowles as passion fruit and is the more important to used in industry, commerce of pharmacy and cosmetics, principally of foods. The Brazil is the greatest international producer of passion fruit, to belong to the principal demands of marked the fruits in form "in nature" and juice. The most of passion fruit producer form are "family farmers" of small propriety, therefore the agroecology production passion fruit, to become a great option or even a necessity. This work did have like objective study the income and quality of passion fruit in agroecology production system. The experiment was carried in the Iguatemi Experimental Farm (FEI) as pretence the State University of Maringá, locked in Iguatemi district, Maringá, Paraná, Brazil; in area certificated like organic in 2007 e 2008 year. The climate of regions is mesothermal humid (Cfa), the soil is classified as Latossolo Red Dystrophic (LVd), of franc-sand-claylly texture. For the study was used the "Oval Big of Urussanga" developed for EPGRI like a more adapted variety for could regions and which small photoperiods, like to happen in regions state's south and southwest. The cultivated was carried under back system which 1,8m of height to space of 4,0m between plants x 2,0m between lines. The treatments availed was four agroecology handlings types. The basic differences between theirs are yours soil handling, soil covering and fertilizing: Treatment A - soil covered which natives plants to belong to clearing and fertilizing across thickens "hipck" or "colonials" which use of mobile house's thicken one twice for month; Treatment B - soil covered which native plants to belong to clearing one twice for month without fertilizing; Treatment C - soil covered which native plants to belong to clearing and fertilizing which compost one twice for month; Treatment D - soil covered which "greens fertilizes" to belong to clearing one twice for month. Was availed the sequent answer variables: productivities, fruit's number medial for plants, fruit's such medial, fruit's weight medial, Brixº, pulp income, juice income, pH, total titulável acidize and Vitamin C. The treatments B and D proportion mayor values of Brixº, pulp income, juice income and Vitamin C; to belong to recommend for cultivated what have destination industrially. The treatments B and C did have greatest answers for fruit's such medial and fruit's weight medial, showing what are treatments of production to table's fruit. The chemistry characteristics of juice's fruit and the productions components of passion fruit did have values need, when not, mayor of what founded various authors what have been study the passion fruit cultivated which conventional bases. Showing what is possible and rentable the agroecology passion fruit cultivate in yours different types of handlings. What for the farmers it is a great option.
