Eficiencia fotosintética: efecto en el desarrollo y productividad del cultivo de banano.

Abstract

The objective of the research was to implement a methodology to evaluate photosynthetic efficiency and its results in banana cultivation. In which six treatments and ten repetitions were applied: T1 (Control): Levon fertilization and Qualita foliar biostimulant; T2: Triakon (20 PPM); T3: Triakon (15PPM); T4: Silicon via foliar application; T5: Silicon via drench; T6: Sea water. The variables evaluated were: Leaf emission in the first twenty weeks (EFP20S), Chlorophyll units at calving (UCAP), Weeks at calving (SAP), Leaf area at calving (AFP), Leaves at calving (HP), Weeks to harvest (SAC), Leaf area to harvest (AFC), Number of leaves to harvest (NHC), Bunch weight (PR), Rachis weight (PRaq), Degrees last hand (GUM), Degrees hand of the sun (GMS), Number of sun fingers (NDMS), Net weight of the fruit (PNF), Processed Ratio (Ratio). Development data were collected weekly and production variables were taken at the time of harvest. The results obtained in this work demonstrate that Silicon-based treatments (T5 and T6) are the most effective in improving photosynthetic efficiency and other physiological parameters in banana cultivation.
