Responses of growth and yield of 'Diacol Capiro' potatoes to application of silicate fertilizer amendments

The potato crop (Solanum tuberosum L.) is considered as one of the main agricultural products in the cold climate regions of Colombia. However, these areas often feature acidic soils with Andean properties, leading to limited availability of essential elements like phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, an...

description The potato crop (Solanum tuberosum L.) is considered as one of the main agricultural products in the cold climate regions of Colombia. However, these areas often feature acidic soils with Andean properties, leading to limited availability of essential elements like phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, and beneficial elements such as silicon. Consequently, we assessed the impact of applying increasing doses of three silicate fertilizer amendments on the growth and production parameters of the 'Diacol Capiro' potato within an acidic desaturated soil located in Soraca (Colombia). Two evaluation cycles were executed, each adopting a completely randomized design with 10 treatments. These treatments comprised three doses (300, 600, and 900 kg ha-1) of three amendments (thermal phosphate, double calcium, and magnesium silicate, and Triple 30® amendment (Rio Claro, Medellin)), in addition to a control treatment. Growth variables, encompassing fresh and dry biomass accumulation in aboveground and root components, leaf thickness, leaf area, and total yield, were evaluated. Statistical differences were evident among treatments (P<0.05) for all growth variables and total yield. A discernible response surfaced concerning silicate fertilizer dosage and type. Particularly, the double calcium and magnesium silicate, administered at a dosage of 900 kg ha-1, elicited the most favorable growth and production (61.8±4.1 t ha-1) response. This underscores the potential of silicate fertilizers as a noteworthy alternative for enhancing growth and production in potato plants under the specific conditions of this study.

El cultivo de papa (Solanum tuberosum L.) es considerado como uno de los productos agrícolas más importantes de las zonas de clima frío en Colombia, pero en su mayoría estas zonas presentan suelos ácidos con propiedades ándicas, esto genera baja disponibilidad de elementos esenciales como el fósforo, calcio, magnesio, y benéficos como el silicio. Por lo anterior, se evaluó el efecto de la aplicación de dosis crecientes de tres fertienmiendas silicatadas sobre el comportamiento de parámetros de crecimiento y producción del cultivo de papa 'Diacol Capiro' en un suelo desaturado ácido del municipio de Soracá (Colombia). Se realizaron dos ciclos de evaluación, en cada uno de estos se empleó un diseño completamente aleatorizado con 10 tratamientos; estos tratamientos correspondieron a tres dosis (300, 600, and 900 kg ha-1) de tres enmiendas (fosfato térmico, silicato doble de calcio y magnesio y enmienda Triple 30® (Rio Claro, Medellín)), más un tratamiento testigo. Como variables de crecimiento se evaluó la acumulación de masa fresca y seca de parte aérea y raíz, grosor de hoja y área foliar y la producción a través del rendimiento total. Se presentaron diferencias estadísticas entre tratamientos (P<0,05), en todas las variables de crecimiento, así como en el rendimiento total. Se observó una respuesta diferencial a nivel de la dosis y el tipo de fertienmienda siendo el silicato doble de calcio y magnesio en dosis de 900 kg ha-1 el que generó la mejor respuesta de crecimiento y producción (61,8±4,1 t ha-1). Esto indica que las fertienmiendas silicatadas son una alternativa importante en la mejora del crecimiento y la producción en plantas de papa bajo las condiciones de estudio.
