Abstract

The mulch combined with the application of different watering shifts increases the quality of vegetables in dry climate environments. The objective of the present work was to evaluate the physical characteristics of the fruits of the green dwarf coconut palm, in function of the use of mulch and different irrigation shifts. The experiment took place in the irrigated perimeter of Várzeas de Sousa, located in the municipality of Sousa, Paraíba. The experimental design was carried out in DIC (Completely Random Design) in a 2 x 5 factorial arrangement, with 2 mulch treatments and 5 irrigation shifts. Fifty fruits were evaluated, 25 from plants with mulch and 25 from plants without mulch. All plants received 5 watering shifts (TR1: daily irrigation; TR2: irrigation every 2 days; TR3: irrigation every 3 days; TR4: irrigation every 4 days; and, TR5: irrigation every 5 days). After harvesting, the fruits were taken to the Chemistry, Biochemistry and Food Analysis Laboratory of the Center for Agro-Food Science and Technology - CCTA, of the Federal University of Campina Grande - UFCG, Campus of the city of Pombal-PB, where they were characterized in terms of weight, length, diameter, peel thickness, internal cavity diameter, solid albumen thickness and volume of water contained in the fruits. There was no interaction between the factors. However, mulching combined with irrigation in shifts caused noticeable differences between fruits; plants with mulch provided fruits with better characteristics.
