Potential for revegetation of degraded soil by iron mining using leguminous trees and waste shrimp / Potencial de revegetaÃÃo de solo degradado pela mineraÃÃo de ferro utilizando leguminosas arbÃreas e resÃduo de carcinicultura

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Dentre as alternativas para recuperar Ãreas degradadas està a adiÃÃo de resÃduos orgÃnicos visando melhorar a estrutura e a disponibilidade de nutrientes no substrato degradado. No Estado do CearÃ, o resÃduo orgÃnico proveniente de tanques de criaÃÃo de camarÃes (carcinicultura) merece destaque por apresentar teores relevantes de nutrientes e matÃria orgÃnica. O objetivo deste estudo foi comprovar a hipÃtese de que o resÃduo de carcinicultura favorece o desenvolvimento de leguminosas arbÃreas e melhora o substrato degradado. Na etapa inicial do estudo foi feita a caracterizaÃÃo geoquÃmica e fÃsico-quÃmica do resÃduo para identificar a presenÃa de pirita e o risco potencial de acidificaÃÃo. Posteriormente, foi instalado um experimento em casa de vegetaÃÃo com delineamento experimental em blocos casualizados e esquema fatorial 5x3, com quatro repetiÃÃes. Os tratamentos foram cinco doses de resÃduo de carcinicultura (0; 2; 4; 8; 12 Mg ha-1) e trÃs espÃcies de leguminosas: Sabià (Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia Benth), Leucena (Leucaena leucocephala) e Jurema Preta (Mimosa hostilis). TrÃs meses apÃs a adiÃÃo do resÃduo de carcinicultura foi avaliado o crescimento das leguminosas, bem como a fitomassa e o acÃmulo de nutrientes na parte aÃrea e nas raÃzes. TambÃm foi avaliada a disponibilidade de nutrientes no substrato. Por meio dos resultados da anÃlise geoquÃmica do ferro foi observado baixo grau de piritizaÃÃo e, consequentemente baixo risco de acidificaÃÃo ao utilizar o resÃduo de carcinicultura. Ao final do perÃodo de trÃs meses de avaliaÃÃo do experimento em casa de vegetaÃÃo, constatou-se que as leguminosas arbÃreas responderam positivamente Ãs doses de resÃduo. As espÃcies que apresentaram maior crescimento em altura e maior fitomassa foram Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia e Mimosa hostilis, apresentando tambÃm maior acÃmulo de nutrientes. Os efeitos do resÃduo de carcinicultura no solo foram: aumento na condutividade elÃtrica e no pH. Conclui-se que o resÃduo da carcinicultura favorece o crescimento e o desenvolvimento das leguminosas arbÃreas avaliadas no presente estudo, sem prejudicar atributos quÃmicos e fÃsicos do substrato e permitindo maior disponibilidade de nutrientes de modo a favorecer o processo de revegetaÃÃo da Ãrea degradada. / The addition of organic residues is among the alternatives to rehabilitate degraded lands, aiming to improve the structure as well as the nutrients availability of mining spoils. In the Cearà State, the organic residue from shrimp farms (carcinicultura) deserves attention because it contains relevant amount of nutrients and organic matter. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that residue from shrimp farms improves the development of leguminous trees as well as the degraded land. In the initial phase of this study both geochemical and physical-chemical characterization of the organic residue were done aiming to identify the presence of pirite, and the potential risk of acidification. One experiment was set up under controled conditions, in the experimental design of randomized blocks in a factorial scheme 5x3, with four replications. The treatments were five rates of organic residue from shrimp farms (0; 2; 4; 8; 12 Mg ha-1) and three leguminous trees species: Sabià (Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia Benth), Leucena (Leucaena leucocephala) and Jurema Preta (Mimosa hostilis). Three months after addition of the organic residue were evaluated the growth of leguminous trees, the fitomass, as well as the nutrients accumulation in the above ground, and bellow ground parts of the plants. The availability of nutrients in the substrate also was evaluated. The results of the geochemical analysis showed low amount of pirite, and consequently the low risk of acidification by the use of organic residue from shrimp farms. After a period of three months was observed that leguminous trees presented positive answer to rates of organic residue. The species that presented higher growth and fitomass production were Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia and Mimosa hostilis, presenting also the higher nutrients accumulation. The effects of the organic residue in the soil were: increase in soil eletric conductivity, and pH. The conclusion is that the organic residue from shrimp farms improved the growth and development of leguminous trees in the present study, and it did not damage soil chemical and physical attributes, allowing higher availability of nutrients to favour plant growth in degraded land.
