Abstract:Gypsum and lime application causes chemical modifications in the soil that influence nutrient content, root growth and development of plants. An experiment was carried out in the municipality of Santa Isabel, Pará state, Brazil, to evaluate the chemical changes in the soil and the responses of green dwarf coconut to gypsum and lime at 6 and 12 months after application. The experimental design was completely randomized blocks, with 4 blocks and 7 treatments: T1 = control; T2 = 2000 kg ha-1 lime; T3 = 500 kg ha-… Show more
