Efecto de tres bioabonos en el rendimiento del cultivo preestablecido de fresa (fragaria x annanasa d.) variedad albion

Abstract

This investigation aimed to study the effect of three biofertilizers on the yield of the pre-established crop of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa D) Albion variety through 8 applications and weekly samplings carried out from May 13 to July 7, 2023. The treatments evaluated were BJ, MM, BL and the control SA. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) was used, with four treatments including the control and four repetitions. Sixty plants were planted per treatment, selecting 10 plants randomly sampled for each treatment. The following parameters were evaluated: yield in kg/plant, brix degrees, leaf area (cm2) and finally, an economic analysis was carried out using the benefit/cost ratio. The determination of the yield was made weekly at harvest, while for the parameters leaf area and brix degrees, three evaluations were made at 21, 42 and 63 days after the first application. The results obtained were tabulated in Excel and later processed in the statistical software Infostat student version 2020 for statistical analysis. The best result was obtained with the BL treatment that obtained an average yield of 0.10 kg/plant with a leaf area that presented an average of 45.90 cm2 while on the scale of brix degrees presented an average of 9.42 brix degrees and finally the benefit/cost ratio generated a profitability of 66%, that means that every dollar invested generates a profit of USD 0.66.
