Abstract:The current farm management practices used to cultivate cassava, in a farm from Lago Oeste, Federal District, increased soil pHwater value to 7.11, lowering Mn availability to plants, leading to low root yields. The soils were overfertilized and overlimed. The objective of this work was to evaluate Mn availability for cassava plants, as well as its yield under MnSO4 and elemental sulfur (S0) fertilization, in a high pH soil. An experiment was designed for evaluating MnSO4 (0, 2.5, 5 and 10 kg Mn ha-1) and S0 (… Show more
