RESUMODesenvolveu-se esta pesquisa visando o aproveitamento do rejeito da dessalinização da água no cultivo hidropônico do meloeiro. O experimento foi conduzido no Departamento de Ciências Ambientais da UFERSA, localizado no município de Mossoró, RN, em vasos com substrato de fibra de coco sob condições protegidas. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi blocos ao acaso, com 3 repetições cujos tratamentos corresponderam a cinco níveis de salinidade da solução nutritiva obtidos com ou sem a necessidade de diluição do rejeito da dessalinização da água (2,1; 3,6; 4,9; 6,0 e 7,0 dS m -1 ). Avaliaram-se: altura de plantas, diâmetro de colo, área foliar, rendimento total e comercial de frutos por planta e, ainda, peso médio de frutos comerciais e totais. Em geral, as variáveis estudadas decresceram linearmente com o incremento da salinidade da solução nutritiva demonstrando que a salinidade da solução com água de rejeito reduz a disponibilidade de água para as plantas, devido ao efeito osmótico.

The experimental design was in randomized blocks, with three repetitions. Treatments were composed of five levels of salinity of the nutrient solution obtained with, and without, dilution of the waster water from desalting (2.1, 3.6, 4.9, 6.0 and 7.0 dS m -1 ). The variables plant height, stem diameter, leaf area, mean weight of fruit and total and marketable yield were detemined. In general, the variables decreased linearly with the increase of the salinity of the nutrient solution, showing that the salinity with waster water from desalting reduces the absorption of water by the plants due to the osmotic effect.
Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito da aplicação de uso de rejeito salino em cinco misturas com água de poço no crescimento do coentro em sistema hidropônico. O experimento foi desenvolvido no período de outubro a novembro de 2009, no município de Mossoró-RN. O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos ao acaso com cinco tratamentos e três repetições. Os níveis de salinidade da água possuíam as condutividades elétricas de 2,55; 4,68; 6,85; 9,38 e 12,34 dS m-1 obtidos, respectivamente, através de diluição da água de rejeito (AR) da dessalinização acrescido da água de poço (AP), referente as misturas (M): M 1 = 100 % de AP; M 2 = 25 % AR + 75 % AP, M 3 = 50 % AR + 50 % AP, M 4 = 75 % AR + 25 % AP e M 5 = 100% de AR. As plantas foram colhidas 28 dias após o plantio, avaliando-se a altura de plantas, o número de folhas, a área foliar, a massa fresca e seca de folhas, caule e de parte aérea. Pelos resultados, constatou-se que o aumento da salinidade na água de irrigação influenciou negativamente de forma linear as variáveis estudadas, com exceção da massa seca de folhas e caule.
Saline-sodic soils are a major impediment for agricultural production in semi-arid regions. Salinity and sodicity drastically reduce agricultural crop yields, damage farm equipment, jeopardize food security, and render soils unusable for agriculture. However, many farmers in developing semi-arid regions cannot afford expensive amendments to reclaim saline-sodic soils. Furthermore, existing research does not cover soil types (e.g., Luvisols and Lixisols) that are found in many semi-arid regions of South America. Therefore, we used percolation columns to evaluate the effect of inexpensive chemical and organic amendments (gypsum and cow manure) on the reclamation of saline-sodic soils in the northeast of Brazil. Soil samples from two layers (0–20 cm and 20–40 cm in depth) were collected and placed in percolation columns. Then, we applied gypsum into the columns, with and without cow manure. The experiment followed a complete randomized design with three replications. The chemical amendment treatments included a control and four combinations of gypsum and cow manure. Percolation columns were subjected to a constant flood layer of 55 mm. We evaluated the effectiveness of sodic soil reclamation treatments via changes in soil hydraulic conductivity, chemical composition (cations and anions), electrical conductivity of the saturated soil-paste extract, pH, and the exchangeable sodium percentage. These results suggest that the combined use of gypsum and cow manure is better to reduce soil sodicity, improve soil chemical properties, and increase water infiltration than gypsum alone. Cow manure at 40 ton ha−1 was better than at 80 ton ha−1 to reduce the sodium adsorption ratio.
The northeastern semiarid region faces some of the droughts of the last centuries, resulting in serious reductions of agriculture yields. The water scarcity for agricultural requires rational use practices and reuse of water, such as use of domestic effluent sewage. Alternatively, the use of treated domestic sewage effluent utilizing for irrigation of forage species, such as the forage cactus, can be highlighted. In order to evaluate the effects of fertirrigation with treated sewage effluent on mineral nutrient composition of forage cactus (Opuntia Tuna L. Mill, Mexican elephant ear), an experiment was carried out utilizing a split plot 3 x (4 + 1) with a randomized complete block design randomized block and four replications, being three planting density (66,667.00, 52,282.00 and 33,333.00 plants ha-1) and two water sources associated with irrigation frequency of plates fixed on 3.5 mm per irrigation (Frequencies of 2.3 days with water tap and 7, 14 and 21 days with Sewage Effluent) and cactus cultivated in Rainfed agriculturerainfed (control). The analyze of the nutritional contents of cladodes indicated that there was a significant effect of the intervals from irrigation events only for Ca and Mg concentrations. The highest levels of Ca and Mg were found with the irrigation frequency of 2.3 using tap water. The macronutrients concentration in greater quantity by the forage cactus were N e, K followed by, Ca, Mg and P. The nutritional balance indicated excess of K and P and deficiency of N, Ca and Mg, in this order.

Foi determinada a quantidade de coliformes totais e termotolerantea (Escherichia coli) e salmonella por grama de solo. As amostras de coliformes foram analisadas pela técnica do Número Mais Provável por 100 g-1 (NMP 100 g-1) de coliformes totais e termotolerantes (CTe) foi realizados pela técnica dos tubos múltiplos NMP. Para o isolamento de Salmonella spp, utilizou-se a técnica de concentração por membrana filtrante, de 42 mm de porosidade por 142 mm de diâmetro.
The use of wastewater has emerged as alternative to control environmental pollution and a viable option to improved water availability in the arid and semiarid zones. In this study, the effects of irrigation solution with domestic sewage effluent and, of growing substrate on growth of Aroeira seedlings was examined in a greenhouse experiment. The effects of five irrigation solution (Public-supply water, PSW, domestic sewage effluent, DSE and the mixtures of 75% DSE + 25% PSW, 50% DSE + 50% PSW and 25% DSE + 75% PSW) and two growing substrate (75% soil + 25% bovine manure and, 75% soil + 25% coconut fiber) were used in a completely randomized block design, arranged as split plots with three replications for each treatment. The evaluations were made at 30, 60, 90 and 150 days after planting, and the parameters following were measured: stem diameter, shoot height, relationship between height and diameter, shoot/root dry matter ratio, dry matter of the root, shoot and total and, Dickson index. The analysis results indicated that the irrigation solution composed by raw sewage effluent or mixed with Public-supply water increased the growth and improved morphological index of Aroeira seedlings, being the better development found when plant of Aroeira were grown in bovine manure + soil substrate under irrigation with solution containing 100% domestic sewage effluent.
A B S T R A C TThe objective of this work was to evaluate changes in the chemical attributes of an Inceptisol in two areas of sustainable management of the Caatinga Biome and a conventional tillage, compared with the native forest. The areas were managed in the following way: in areas under sustainable management, the Caatinga was thinned in a savanna system (1), and in the other area, the Caatinga was thinned in strips (2); the area under conventional tillage was burned, plowed and harrowed (3), and the native forest (4). The following chemical attributes were analyzed: pH, electrical conductivity, Ca 2+ , Mg 2+, H + Al, P, Na + , K + and soil organic matter (SOM), calculating CEC and base saturation. The treatments were evaluated using multivariate analysis, at different depths up to 0.52 m. In the Caatinga areas thinned in a savanna system and in strips, the greater availability of exchangeable bases and SOM occurs close to the depth of 0.20 m and, in the area with traditional agriculture, it is limited to 0.10 m. In the area thinned in a savanna system, sodium showed a negative correlation with the other elements.Atributos químicos em área agrícola tradicional e Caatinga manejada em diferentes profundidades em um Cambissolo R E S U M O Objetivou-se, neste trabalho, avaliar mudanças nos atributos químicos de um Cambissolo háplico em duas áreas de manejo sustentável da caatinga e em uma área de cultivo agrícola convencional e se optou, para efeito de comparação, pela mata nativa (Caatinga). As áreas foram manejadas da seguinte forma: Nas áreas em que houve manejo sustentável foi feito raleamento na caatinga com sistema de savana (1) e na outra área raleamento em faixas (2); na área de cultivo agrícola convencional foram realizadas queimada, aração e gradagem (3) e a mata nativa (4). Os atributos químicos analisados foram: pH, condutividade elétrica, Ca 2+ , Mg 2+, H + Al, P, Na + , K + e matéria orgânica do solo (MOS) calculando-se CTC e saturação por bases. Os tratamentos foram avaliados por meio de análises multivariadas, em várias profundidades até 0,52 m. Verificou-se que na área de caatinga raleada em savana e em faixa, houve maior disponibilidade de bases trocáveis e MOS próximos aos 0,20 m de profundidade e na área com agricultura tradicional se restringe a 0,10 m. Na área raleada com sistema de savana o Na apresentou correlação negativa com os demais elementos indicando situação de antagonismo.
