Uso de biofertilizantes no cultivo de olerícolas

Abstract

Plant fertilization is an essential step for the productive maintenance of crops. The acquisition of mineral fertilizers represents a local plant of production costs, with a constant search for greater efficiency in its use as well as complementary alternatives for fertilization. In this sense, the use of organic fertilizers such as biofertilizers has been defined as a viable, accessible and efficient way for the nutritional management of plants, bringing financial and environmental benefits by replacing or reducing the use of mineral fertilizers. The use of biofertilizers has grown within the agricultural scenario, especially in horticulture, due to the great ease for its production with the use of diverse agricultural residues as raw material. Despite the varied chemical compositions, in general, they confer numerous benefits to the soil and plant, as it contains the concentration of macro and micronutrients important to plant nutrition, in addition to acting in improving the physical and biological characteristics of the soil. The present work had the objective of carrying out a bibliographic survey on the use of biofertilizers in the production of vegetable plants, especially considering their nutritional benefits. The present work was carried out through searches in three bibliographic databases, PubMed, Web of Science and Scielo. After the analysis of the works, it was verified the effectiveness of the use of biofertilizers in vegetables.
