Plantas de cobertura do solo em área de videira rústica cultivada no cerrado goiano

Resumo

The use of cover crops is an important tool for maintaining and restoring the chemical and physical properties of the soil; however, there is little information on the use of these plants in vine planting. The objective of this study was to evaluate the development and the rate of decomposition of plant ground cover in vine planting. The experiment consisted of six treatments established in a randomized block design in a 3 × 2 factorial scheme with five repetitions. The first factor consisted of plant species cover crops: bean‐to-pig (Canavalia ensiformis L. DC), lab-lab (Dolichos lab lab L.) and spontaneous plants. The second factor comprised two vine pruning periods based on the seeding of cover crops, that is, the first vine pruning was performed 25 days after the sowing of the cover crop, and the second pruning was conducted 55 days after sowing. Vine pruning times do not influence the soil cover rate and biomass production of the cover crop. Bean-to-pig is suitable for intercropping with vine. The dynamics of decomposition is faster for plants in the vegetative stage and it varies according to the season.
