Aplicación de fertilizante con la técnica de inyección en la producción de plátano barraganete (Musa AAB).

Abstract

The research determined the agronomic performance of barraganete banana under different doses of fertilizer applied by injection. Five doses of complete fertilizer (N 12%, P 11%, K 18%, Mg 2.7%, S 8%, SO3 20%, B 0.015%, Fe 0.2%, Mn 0.02%, Zn 0.02%) were evaluated in treatments: T1 (0 g/plant-1), T2 (30 g/plant-1), T3 (40 g/plant-1), T4 (50 g/plant-1), T5 (60 g/plant-1) and T6 (70 g/plant-1). The experimental design was a Randomized Complete Block Design (C.C.B.D.) with six treatments and four replications. Variables evaluated included return height, pseudostem perimeter, number of leaves, days to flowering, days to harvest, bunch weight, number of fingers per bunch, exportable fingers, conversion ratio, and economic analysis and economic analysis. The results showed that T4 achieved the highest return height; T2, the highest pseudostem girth; T4, the highest pseudostem girth at flowering; T3, the highest number of leaves at flowering; T2, the highest number of days to flowering and days to harvest; T2 resulted in the best bunch weight; T4, the best conversion ratio; T3 had the highest number of fingers per bunch and the highest number of exportable fingers. T2 had the highest number of boxes per hectare, and T2 showed the best yield; T2 showed the best b/c result in the economic analysis.
