Conilon coffee liming and fertilization.

The principles ofa soil correction and fertilization program for the coffee conilon cultivation are characterized not only by the simple correction and fertilization practices, but also by a broader context, such as a set of procedures to be followed in an orderly manner aiming at the greater control of the entire process. In this way, they contribute to an adequate crop management, with the objective of reducing production costs and increasing prof?itability, always considering the production system sustainability. In order to achieve these goals, the soil should, initially, be sampled for analysis, since there is no possibility of correction and fertilization without this information. The next step is the interpretation of the soil analysis, which consists in comparing the nutrient contents present in the soil with the contents of specif?ic tables for the conilon coffee cultivation, which present the nutrient doses suitable for planting, the plants growth and to achieve a certain production. Knowing the amount of nutrients needed for each stage of development of the cultivation, it remains to def?ine the corrective and fertilizer to be used, its form of application and the most appropriate time for it. In this way, the quality ofthe soil correction and fertilization program is guaranteed, which allows a higher rate of return for the investment.
