The present work aimed to evaluate the behavior of ten fertility attributes of soil organic matter physical fractions and total organic carbon upon addition of three EM Bokashis to a Rhodic Ferralsol (FRr) and a Dystric Cambisol (CMd). An experiment was carried out in greenhouse in which the soils were placed into plastic trays and cultivated with tomato. A completely randomized design was used with four repetitions and factorial scheme of 2 × 3 + 2, consisting of two soils (FRr and CMd), three EM Bokashis (Poultry Manure Bokashi (BPM); CNPH Bokashi (BC); and Cattle Manure Bokashi (BCM)), and two controls (both soils without addition of Bokashi). The following fertility attributes were evaluated: pH, Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , K + , Na + , P, SB, H + Al, CEC, and . Particulate organic carbon (POC) and mineral-associated organic carbon (MOC) and total organic carbon (TOC) were also investigated. Finally, the Principal Component Analysis was conducted in order to identify possible patterns related to soils when fertilized with EM Bokashi. The addition of EM Bokashi increased the soil fertility and contents of POC. Different EM Bokashi presents distinguished effects on each soil. The PCA suggests that BPM presents higher capacity to modify the analyzed chemical attributes.
Resumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os teores de carbono orgânico total (COT) e das frações granulométricas da matéria orgânica de um Latossolo Vermelho cultivado com hortaliças, sob diferentes sistemas de manejo e de cultivo de plantas de cobertura. O experimento foi realizado por seis anos, em delineamento de blocos ao caso, em arranjo fatorial 3x2, com três sistemas de manejo do solo -plantio direto (SPD), preparo reduzido (PPR) e preparo convencional (SPC) -e dois cultivos de cobertura, um de milho solteiro e outro de milho consorciado com mucuna-cinza (Stizolobium niveum) (MM), com quatro repetições. Os teores de COT, estimados para a camada 0,00-0,30 m, foram maiores em SPD e PPR. Independentemente da profundidade avaliada, o consórcio MM promoveu os maiores teores de carbono orgânico particulado (COP), que foram fortemente influenciados pela incorporação da palhada. Em todas as camadas, observaramse correlações negativas entre os teores de COP e os de carbono orgânico associado a minerais (COAM), indício de ocorrência do efeito "priming". Os teores de COT correlacionaram-se positivamente aos de COAM, o que destaca a importância de mecanismos de estabilização da matéria orgânica no incremento dos teores de COT no solo.Termos para indexação: carbono associado a minerais, carbono orgânico particulado, carbono orgânico total, efeito "priming", plantio direto de hortaliças, sequestro de carbono. Organic carbon pools in an Oxisol cultivated with vegetables under different managementsAbstract -The objective of this work was to evaluate the contents of total organic carbon (COT) and of the organic matter fractions in an Oxisol cultivated with vegetables under different soil management systems and with different cover crops. The experiment was carried out for six years in a randomized block design, in a 3x2 factorial arrangement with three soil management systems -no-tillage (SPD), minimum tillage (PPR), and conventional system (SPC) -, and two cover crops, one of maize and the other of maize intercropped with Stizolobium niveum (MM), with four replicates. COT levels, estimated for 0.00-0.30-m, soil depth were higher in SPD and PPR. Regardless of the evaluated soil depth, MM intercropped system promoted higher contents of particulate organic carbon (COP), which were strongly affected by straw incorporation. In all soil depths, negative correlations were observed between the contents of COP and those of carbon associated to minerals (COAM), which indicate the occurrence of priming effect. COT contents were positively correlated to those of COAM, stressing the importance of soil organic matter stabilization mechanisms for improving COT contents in the soil.Index terms: carbon associated to minerals, particulate organic carbon, total organic carbon, priming effect, no-tillage for vegetables, carbon sequestration. IntroduçãoPara que ocorra sequestro de carbono, os sistemas de manejo devem adicionar elevadas quantidades de biomassa ao solo, causar o mínimo distúrbio em sua estrutura, além de promover a conser...
