Morfologia, mineralogía e características físico-químicas dos principais solos de cacau da Bahia, Brasil

Bahia State produces approximately 90 percent of the Brazilian cacao. The cultivated area is located in Souhtheast Bahia where there is a large variety of soils. Data obtained from described and analysed pedons (profiles) allowed characterization of the traditional soils of cacao under morphological, physical, chemical and mineralogical aspects and classification by the American (SSS - USDA) and the Brazilian (SNLCS - EMBRAPA) systems. The main units identified are: Cepec (Tropudalf or Red Yellow Podzolic Eutrophic, Ta A moderate, clay texture, evergreen forest phase, gentle undulate and undulate relief); Itabuna (Tropudalf or Red Yellow Podzolic Eutrophic Ta A moderate, medium/clay texture, evergreen forest phase, undulate relief); Morro Redondo (Tropudulf or Red Yellow Podzolic Tb A moderate, clay/very clay texture, evergreen forest phase, undulate, strong undulate and mountain relief); Agua Sumida (Umbriorthox or Red Yellow Latosol Distrophic, clay texture, evergreen forest phase, strong undulate and mountain relief).
