Avaliação da biomassa foliar de morangueiro hidropônico em diferentes ambientes protegidos

Abstract

Analyses were made in the experimental field of the Agricultural Engineering College at State University of Campinas (Unicamp). Four varieties of strawberry [Fragaria x ananassa (Weston) Duchesne ex Rozier] were tested in four hydroponics production systems (100mm and 150mm channels and 150mm channel with a vase containing coconut fiber and a vertical pipe containing carbonized rice rusk). Three greenhouses were tested: i) a greenhouse without air evaporative cooling nor CO2 aerial injection, ii) a greenhouse with CO2 aerial injection and without air evaporative cooling and iii) a greenhouse with CO2 aerial injection and air evaporative cooling. It was analyzed the leaf fresh (MFF) and dry mass in gram (MSF) and the leaf area in mm2 (AF). The best hydroponics system was 150mm channel with a vase containing coconut fiber. The best environment condition was the one with air evaporative cooling and aerial injection of CO2.
