YIELD AND QUALITY OF PASSION FRUIT UNDER ORGANIC CULTIVATION WITH INPUT LEVELS AND IRRIGATION IN THE STATE OF ACRE

ABSTRACT The use of organic fertilizers can improve the chemical, physical, and biological properties soil, with their implying low environmental impact. This study aimed to evaluate yield quality yellow passion fruit grown in an system associated irrigation input levels. A randomized complete block design a 3x2 factorial arrangement four replications was adopted. factors evaluated were: three levels (fertilizers alternative pesticides) presence or absence irrigation. Fertilization consisted application 5, 10, 15 liters compost per plant 500, 1,000, 1,500 g lime plant, corresponding 1, 2, 3, respectively. Topdressing fertilization split into two applications, 118, 235, 353 thermophosphate 59.1, 118.20, 176.40 potassium sulfate for 3 application, pesticides were sprayed every 30, 15, 7 days number fruits increased using level In irrigation, 2 content soluble solids. titratable acidity, TSS/TTA ratio, classified as extra did not differ significantly between treatments. Input 1 percentage commercial.
