RESUMO A utilização da fauna edáfica como bioindicadora de alterações antrópicas e ambientais vem crescendo nos últimos anos. No entanto, ainda são poucos os estudos em longo prazo que relacionam esses organismos com aplicação de resíduos orgânicos no solo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar, em dois ciclos da cultura do milho, os efeitos da aplicação de diferentes doses e tipos de águas residuárias da suinocultura (ARS) combinadas ou não com adubação mineral sobre a meso e a macrofauna de solo. Quatro doses (0; 100; 200 e 300 m3ha-1) de ARS, tratada em biodigestor no primeiro ano de estudo e bruta no segundo ano, associadas ou não com adubação mineral, foram aplicadas em dois ciclos da cultura de milho, totalizando 24 parcelas experimentais, sendo 12 com utilização de adubação mineral. Armadilhas de queda foram instaladas em cada uma das parcelas para amostrar a fauna edáfica, sendo os resultados encontrados avaliados por técnicas de estatística multivariada (NMS e Per-MANOVA). A adição de ARS, tanto bruta quanto tratada em biodigestor e de adubação mineral, não influenciou a fauna de solo. Os parâmetros químicos do solo diferenciaram a meso e a macrofauna edáfica somente entre os anos.
The use of wastewater in agriculture has been practiced on an increasing scale over the past decades because of its fertilizing potential and the reduction in demand for
Swine wastewater (SW) has high organic load, becoming an important source of macro and micronutrients to plants, promoting the improvement of soil quality and development in various cultures. However, when done without agronomic and environmental criteria, it can cause soil problems, nutrient leaching, water resource damage and plant toxicity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the soil chemical properties and the leachate in face of the association of swine wastewater and mineral fertilization (MF) in oat cultivation. An experiment in drainage lysimeter was carried out, using SW applications associated to MF or not, where treatments consisted of doses of 0, 100, 200 and 300 m 3 ha -1 with the absence or presence of MF, under field conditions. We concluded that swine wastewater provided significant increases in sodium, copper, zinc, and nitrite + nitrate as well as pH and calcium reductions in the soil; and in the leachate, significant increase in sodium. Moreover, the use of mineral fertilizer comprising nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium induced a significant increase in phosphorus, potassium and electrical conductivity and a significant reduction in magnesium in the soil; however, in the leachate, electrical conductivity was increased.
