ADUBAÇÃO ORGÂNICA DO SOLO: A CONSCIENTIZAÇÃO POR MEIO DE CAMPOS DE MULTIPLICAÇÃO DE SEMENTES CRIOULAS NO AGRESTE PARAIBANO

Abstract

In traditional agriculture declining soil fertility was solved with the fallow cultivated areas. With population growth and intensification of land use , the time was reduced fallow , today we find fields where agriculture practiced on a permanent , continuous cultivation in the same area providing conditions becoming less favorable agricultural production that contribute to socioeconomic and environmental degradation in the region . This work aimed to evaluate the use of manure in production of native seeds to farmers arid Paraíba. The use of fire in the fields / clearings , as well as the influence of the field multiplication of native seeds as encouraging the use of organic fertilizer in the operating region of Paraiba Network seeds for the production and recovery of native seeds , as well as strengthening of Community Seed Banks ( BSC ) in the state of Paraíba . For the research were adopted practices visits, participant observation and semi-structured questionnaires through interviews. Farmers interviewed are inserted territory Borborema and participated in deployments multiplication fields of native seeds promoted by ASPTA ONG - Non-Governmental Organization and Advisory Services Projects in Alternative Agriculture and Polo Association Borborema . They participated in a through semi-structured interviews, as reported care of your soil if it is “strong or weak” in relation to soil fertility: if we put fire on the farm (brushed) to facilitate handling. It is concluded that all respondents use manure , have animals and do not sell organic fertilizer ; Neither sets fire on the farm as a whole, there is some debris that pile of cultures and put fire ; entities such as unions of rural workers ( STR ) and NGOs encourage a positive ecological soil management through workshops , exchanges and meetings , field days , field multiplication , comparative trials of native seeds . Missing more incentive for the use of techniques to nourish the soil, since all recognized the importance of manure , the soil is often low fertility not having enough animals to produce enough to meet the needs of the soil.
