“…On a Mg ha −1 basis, litter materials can contain considerable amounts of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), sulfur (S), iron (Fe), boron (B), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and sodium (Na) (Stephenson et al, 1990;Kpomblekou-A et al, 2002). The continuous application of poultry litter could have negative environmental consequences on groundwater quality due to contamination caused by runoff or leaching of nitrate, P, or other elements (Liebhardt et al, 1979;Ritter and Chirnside, 1987;Sims and Wolf, 1994). Nearly 90% of the poultry litter produced is applied to agricultural lands as a low-cost alternative to commercial fertilizers (Moore et al, 1995).…”

Poultry litter was evaluated as a fertilizer in a young (three-year-old) and an old (35-yearold) black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) plantation in southwest Missouri. The older planting had a fescue (Festuca arundinaceae Schreb.) ground cover that is grazed by cattle. In the young plantation, weeds were mowed and sprayed with herbicides once annually in the spring. Litter was applied at rates of 6.72 Mg ha −1 and 13.44 Mg ha −1 for one year in the spring in the young plantation and at 8.96 Mg ha −1 for two years in the spring and once in late summer in the older plantation. Height growth and leaf nitrogen (N) concentrations were improved during the summer following litter applications in the young plantation, but neither diameter growth nor nut production increased in the older plantation. Second-year height growth treatment differences for the young plantation were not significant. The number of nuts increased in the second year, but differences between treatments were not significant.

“…Scaling effects on the soil erosion, surface runoff and nutrient loss Sims and Wolf (1994) mentioned that the processes of soil erosion, surface runoff, and nutrients loss, can be visualized through their management at three scales; 1) field scale, 2) farm scale, and 3) watershed scale, region and/or State level. At the field scale, the management practices are developed efficiently, favoring or limiting the impact of practices on soil erosion, surface runoff, nutrient loss and crop productivity, as an effect of physical processes such as volatilization, leaching, erosion, runoff and etc.…”

“…A composição mineral do composto apresenta frações com solubilidades diversas, algumas prontamente disponíveis às plantas e outras na forma orgânica, que dependem da atividade biológica do solo para serem mineralizadas. Para o nitrogênio, estima-se que 60% esteja na forma orgânica, 30% como amônio e 10% na forma nítrica e amídica (SIMS & WOLF, 1994). A cafeicultura dá origem a um volume elevado de resíduos, principalmente a palha de café, cuja utilização tem sido objeto de diversos estudos, visto que ela deve possuir um destino adequado (CALDEIRA et al, 2014).…”

RESUMOO feijão-caupi destaca-se entre as principais culturas de subsistência nas regiões Norte e Nordeste do Brasil. O objetivo do trabalho foi verificar a interferência de diferentes combinações dos resíduos: cama de frango e palha de café na germinação de sementes do feijão-caupi classe Branco. O experimento foi realizado em casa de vegetação da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia em Monte Carmelo. Foram utilizadas seis misturas entre cama de frango, palha de café e solo. O solo foi peneirado e os resíduos orgânicos foram adicionados seguindo as seguintes proporções (solo -cama de frango -palha de café): 3-1-1, 3-2-1, 3-1-2, 3-0-1, 3-1-0, 3-0-0 e testemunha com fertilizante mineral, totalizando sete tratamentos. O delineamento utilizado foi o de blocos casualizados com três blocos e 21 parcelas experimentais. As misturas foram colocadas em vasos de 10 litros e a semeadura foi realizada com 20 sementes por parcela. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância (teste F) após o atendimento das pressuposições do modelo pelos testes de Shapiro-Wilk, para normalidade dos resíduos, e de Levene, para homogeneidade das variâncias. As médias foram comparadas pelo teste de Tukey, a 5% de probabilidade. A palha de café melhorou a germinação e manteve os demais caracteres germinativos elevados, entretanto não deve ser utilizado em quantidades superiores de uma parte de café para três de solo. A cama de frango pode ser utilizada, mas devido ao seu possível efeito tóxico nas sementes, o produtor deve aumentar a densidade de semeadura para obter o mesmo estande final. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: agricultura familiar, Cama de frango, palha de café, velocidade de emergência.
