Biosolids and commercial substrate for production of Schinus terebinthifolia seedlings

Currently to adquire substrates in quantity and quality for forest seedlings production is a great challenge for the forest sector. The search for sustainable substrates is an ecological, economic and social trend. The objective of this work was to compare seedlings of Schinus terebinthifolia (aroeira pepper) produced with biosolids (BIO) and with commercial substrate (CS), under monoammonium phosphate (MAP) fertilization, in the nursery and in the first year after planting. The MAP was applied as cover fertilization in increasing doses in the treatments, every 21 days. Even without supplement of mineral fertilization, BIO favored seedlings growth in nursery, resulting in seedlings of superior morphological quality when compared to those produced in CS under cover fertilization. BIO and cover fertilization at higher levels can be used to increase the establishment and growth of aroeira pepper seedlings in the field
