RESUMONeste trabalho, conduzido na comunidade de Morro Alto, município de Acauã, PI, localizada na Serra da Parreira, situada a 620 m de altitude, objetivou-se avaliar o crescimento e a produção da mandioca em cultivo consorciado com guandu, sorgo, caupi, algodão e girassol, em sistema agroecológico de produção. A altura, retenção foliar e sobrevivên-cia das plantas de mandioca, não apresentaram diferenças significativas, considerando-se os tipos de consórcio. Observou-se diferença apenas entre variedades na sobrevivência das plantas, sendo que a variedade Do Céu (BGM 537) apresentou a maior porcentagem de sobrevivência. As espécies consorciadas mantiveram diferentes teores de umidade do solo destacando-se o guandu como a cultura onde se encontrou maior teor de umidade do solo. Por outro lado, a produção por hectare variou de 13 a 26 t, dependendo da variedade utilizada. Esta produtividade, considerada acima da mé-dia da região (12 t ha -1 ), mostra que o cultivo consorciado, principalmente com leguminosas como o feijão caupi e guandu, pode melhorar não só o rendimento da cultura mas também as características do solo, em áreas dependentes de chuva.Palavras-chave: agricultura de sequeiro, calagem, consórcio, forragem da parte aérea Growth and production of different cassava varieties in an agroeological system ABSTRACT This study was conducted in the Morro Alto community, municipal district of Acauã (PI), located in Serra da Parreira, 620 m altitude. The objective was to evaluate the growth and production of the cassava in the intercropping with guandu, sorgo, caupi, cotton and sunflower in an agroecological production system. The height, foliar retention and survival of the cassava plants did not present significant differences considering the consortium types. A difference was only observed among varieties in relation to the survival of the plants, the variety "Do Céu" (BGM 537) showing the greatest survival percentage. The species intercropping maintained different soil humidity contents, guandu standing out as the crop that maintained the largest soil humidity content (10%), even so the consortium type did not modify the productivity of roots. It was observed that the production of roots varied from 13 to 26 t ha -1 , depending on the variety used. This productivity, considered above average for the region (12 t ha -1 ), shows that intercropping, mainly with legumes such as the bean caupi and guandu, can improve not only farmer's revenue but also soil characteristics in rainfed areas.
-Growth regulators can be used to further retard or inhibit vegetative growth. In this sense, the objective of this study was to determine the effects of age and number of trinexapac-ethyl applications on the growth and yield of sugarcane. The experiment was in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The treatments were in a 3 x 2 + 2 factorial arrangement, where factor A corresponded to the application times of the plant growth regulator (120, 200 and 240 days after bud burst (DAB) of sugarcane) and factor B to the number of applications (one or two applications). In addition, two controls (one with three applications and another application without the regulator) were added. The application of trinexapac-ethyl decreased the number and the distance between buds, height, root volume and sugarcane yield. The sequential application (2 or 3 times) induced an increase in stem diameter and three applications of the product increased the number of plant tillers. The use of growth regulators applied at 240 DAB has reduced plant height, however without changing the number of buds. It can be concluded that trinexapac-ethyl changes sugarcane growth and yield, regardless of season and number of applications.Keywords: growth regulator, application timing, number of applications. RESUMO -Os reguladores vegetais podem ser utilizados para promover, retardar ou inibir o crescimento vegetativo. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar os efeitos de épocas e número de aplicações do trinexapac-ethyl sobre o crescimento e a produtividade da cana-de-açúcar. O experimento foi delineado em blocos casualizados com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos foram arranjados em esquema fatorial (3 x 2 + 2); o fator A correspondeu às épocas de aplicação do regulador vegetal (120, 200 e 240 dias após a brotação das gemas (DAB) da cana-de-açúcar), e o fator B, ao número de aplicações (uma ou duas). Além disso, foram adicionadas duas testemunhas (uma com três aplicações e outra sem aplicação do regulador
