The agroecological wheat crop in western Paraná is an excellent option for crop rotation, contributing to the quality of the no-tillage system. In this way, the present study aimed to evaluate the agronomic characteristics, the productivity of six wheat cultivars in the agricultural year 2021 cultivated in the West of Paraná in an agroecological system. The experiment was carried out between June and September 2021. Six genotypes were used: TBIO Audaz, TBIO Toruk, BRS Belajoia, ORS Madrepérola, ORS 1403 and UTF 18. The cycle of these cultivars is early to medium. Crop management was carried out in the agroecological system. For fertilization, 8 t ha-1 of chicken litter and the super-lean fertilizer were used. During the maturation period, the production components and grain yield were determined. As a result, it was found that during the crop cycle there was a water deficit which compromised the development of the crop. The highest hectoliter weight was found in the cultivar BRS Belajoia (77.7). In the present work, no cultivar reached the hectoliter weight to be classified as type 1. The highest hectoliter weight was found in the cultivar BRS Belajoia (77.7); however, in the present work, no cultivar reached the hectoliter weight to be classified as type 1.

One of the main problems faced by black pepper crop in the state of Pará is the phytosanitary attack that, if not controlled and / or avoided, can cause serious damages to the crop, causing productivity and financial losses for family farmers. In the city of Capitão Poço, state of Pará, pipericutura is one of the activities that contributes to complement the income of family producers, since they also work with other agricultural species. This study aimed to make a survey of the main pests and diseases most commonly found in black pepper crop by reflecting on the control methods used by family farmers in the city of Capitão Poço/PA. To collect the information, a semi-structured questionnaire was applied to 50 family farmers in the municipality, in order to identify the main phytosanitary problems faced by family producers during the cultivation of black pepper and the most used forms of control. The most common pests and diseases are aphis (70%) and mealybugs (8%) and fusarium (80%) and bacterial halo (14%) respectively, and the use of chemicals is the main form of control used. The need for the use of new techniques that minimize and / or replace chemical control is notorious, and public and private institutions may be acting in this direction, with the development of research and its dissemination, presenting other prevention and control alternatives that can be used. meet the wishes of the municipality's producers.

The cultivar BRS 420 has superior starch yields in early and late harvest, moderate resistance to the main diseases of the crop, adaptation to mechanized planting and to the no-till system, as well as rapid formation of soil cover (which assists in weed control). It represents an alternative for cassava growers in Paraná and Mato Grosso do Sul. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
