Urochloa ruziziensis and nitrogen fertilization in corn-bean production systems
Palavras-chave:

Evaluated the effect of Urochloa ruziziensis in association with nitrogen fertilization, in a second-crop corn and bean cultivation system. The experiment used a no-till planting system (NTPS). The treatments consisted: second-crop corn in association with U. ruziziensis and exclusive corn cultivation. Five doses of N (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 kg ha-1) were used in the subplots. After corn cultivation, the plots were desiccated with glyphosate, and then bean cultivation was carried out. In the bean experiment, the treatments consisted of the absence and presence of U. ruziziensis straw from the previous crop in the plots. In the subplots, five doses of N (0, 15, 30, 45, and 60 kg ha-1) were used. The cultivation of U. ruziziensis at a density of 3 kg ha-1 in consortium with corn, second crop, in no-till, increases the amount of plant residues on the soil surface and does not alter the productivity and production components of corn and beans grown in succession. In the corn and U. ruziziensis intercropping system, it is not necessary to alter the N topdressing rate compared to the exclusive cultivation of corn.
