Contributions to the improvement of the fertility regim on a sweet pepper crop

Abstract

The research conducted within this study aimed to evaluate the influence of fertilization simultaneously with drip irrigation in a crop of peppers established in a tunnel. Trials were organized in a tunnel belonging to the Vegetable discipline, located in "V. Adamachi" Didactic Farm, in Iasi. The purpose of the research was toevaluate the effect of the fertilization method, using conventional fertilizers, applied to the soil surface by spraying, and based on micro-organisms, simultaneously with drip irrigation, compared to the unfertilized version. Thus, after fertigation, there were found differences concerning the plant height, the number of flowers and fruits on a plant, the average weight of fruit and the production per hectare. The production obtained by the Brillant F1 pepper cultivar in the fertigation version was of 85.850 kg / ha.
