Desenvolvimento inicial e qualidade de mudas de Carapa guianensis Aubl. cultivada com diferentes doses de esterco bovino e calagem

The objective of this work was to evaluate the initial development and quality of Carapa guianensis cultivated with different levels of bovine manure and liming. The work was conducted in Altamira, PA. Four levels of bovine manure (0, 15, 30 and 45 t ha-1) and four levels of dolomitic limestone (0, 2, 4 and 6 t ha-1, 80% PRNT), arranged in a 4x4 factorial scheme, in the randomized complete block design. All evaluated characteristics were influenced by the doses of bovine manure and limestone. In general, the doses of 45 t ha-1 of manure and 6 t ha-1 of limestone provided higher growth and yield of plant biomass and higher Dickson quality index.
