Variabilidade espacial e disponibilidade de cobre e zinco em solos de vinhedos e adjacências
2009
With time, the intensive agricultural use of soil may lead to its contamination with heavy metals, mainly under the intense use of agrochemicals that are composed by zinc and copper. The objective of this work was to assess the concentration of available copper and zinc, extracted by DTPA, and evaluate its spatial distribution using geostatistics in experimental and commercial vineyards and under other land uses and covers in the surroundings of the cultivated areas. Soil samples were collected at the 0.0-0.15 and 0.15-0.30 m depth in 100 locations. Two catchment areas located at the APTA-Fruits Center of the Secretary of Agriculture of Sao Paulo State in Jundiai, Brazil were used in that study. It is a vineyard area with predominance of Umbrept and Udult soils. Initially data were assessed with descriptive statistics, hypothesis test and Pearson linear simple correlation. For the spatial analysis it was utilized semivariograms and crossed semivariograms, and kriging for data interpolation and isolines map generation. High contents of copper and zinc were verified in the area, being the higher ones in the soil under vineyard, probably due to the intensive use of agrochemicals. In these latter soils it was found high positive correlation between copper and zinc content, pH, organic matter, and base saturation. Higher copper and zinc contents were found in the commercial vineyards compared to the experimental fields. The spatial analysis of data allowed to evaluate the spatial distribution of copper and zinc content as well as to verify the positive spatial correlation between those two elements in the 0.15-0.30 m depth by crossed semivariogram.
