In order to assess the development of two native species,
Anadenanthera peregrina
and
Schinus terebinthifolius
, submitted to doses of slow-release fertilizer formulation 13-06-16, an experiment was
conducted in greenhouse using a mixture of raw materials with organic compost, vermiculite and plantmax
to compose base substrate. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with six
treatments and four replications. The treatments were : T1-0 kg (control), T2-2 kg, 4 kg-T3 , T4-6 kg,
T5-8 kg and T6 – 10 kg slow release fertilizer per cubic meter of base substrate . Was evaluated at 189 days
after sowing the total height, stem diameter, fresh weight of shoot, dry shoot biomass, root dry biomass,
total biomass, the relationship between height and stem diameter and quality index Dickson. The results suggest that application of slow release fertilizer leads to significant gains in growth in both species, with
the best doses from 6.68 to 5.54 kg m
-3 for
Anadenanthera peregrina species, and from 8.38 to 14,42 kg m
-3
for
Schinus terebinthifolius.
