The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of methods for overcoming dormancy in Caesalpinia ferrea seeds. The experimental design was completely randomized, with twelve treatments and four replicates of 25 seeds per experimental unit. The pre germinative treatments used were: control (T1); immersion in water at 100, 80 and 65 °C for 5 minutes (T2, T3 and T4, respectively); immersion in sulfuric acid (98%) for 5 and 10 minutes (T5 and T6, respectively); scarification on sandpaper n° 120 (T7); in the region opposite the thread and at the end of the insertion point of the pod (T8 and T9, respectively); immersion in alcohol, red wine and white wine vinegar for 15 minutes (T10, T11 and T12, respectively). The evaluated characteristics were: emergence percentage, emergence speed index, percentage of hard and dead seeds, root length, seedling height and number of leaves. The treatments with immersion in sulfuric acid for 5 or 10 minutes, scarification with sandpaper nº 120 and the tegument sprouting, both in the region opposite the thread and at the end of the insertion point of the pod, are the most suitable for overcoming of coats dormancy in Caesalpinia ferrea seeds.

One of the biggest challenges in intercropping of two or more crops is to maintain their productivity as that of their sole counterparts. In order to obtain sustainable intercropping systems in a semi-arid environment, this study evaluated the agro-economic advantage and sustainability of intercropped systems of carrot and cowpea, optimizing the green manuring and spatial arrangements. Experiments were conducted in the period from July to October 2017 and 2018, using a randomized complete block design with the treatments arranged in a 4 x 3 factorial scheme, with four replications. Treatments included four amounts of M. aegyptia incorporated into the soil (20, 35, 50, and 65 t ha-1 on dry basis) with three spatial arrangements (2:2, 3:3, and 4:4) between the components cultures formed from cowpea rows alternated with carrot rows. The agro-economic advantage indices evaluated in the intercropping systems were: land equivalent ratio (LER), area-time equivalent ratio (ATER), score of the canonical variable (Z), actual yield loss (AYL), intercropping advantage (IA), gross income (GI), net income (NI), rate of return (RR), and profit margin (PM). The highest agro-economic advantages of the carrot and cowpea intercropping were obtained for LER, ATER, NI, and RR of 2.60, 4.16, US$ 8,720.99 ha-1, and US$ 2.21, respectively, for M. aegyptia biomass amounts of 46.42, 47.82, 32.60 and 31.51t ha-1 added to the soil. The 2: 2 spatial arrangement was the one with the best productive performance, with higher net income and rate of return in the intercropping of carrot-cowpea. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this study was to evaluate the sustainability and agro-economic viability from two croppings of coriander (C) and two of arugula (A) intercropped with beet (B) as a function of roostertree additions to the soil in different population densities. The experimental design was a randomized complete block, with treatments arranged in a 4 x 4 factorial scheme with four replications. The treatments resulted from the combination of four amounts of roostertree biomass (6, 19, 32 and 45 t ha-1 on dry basis) with four population densities of coriander, beet and arugula (20C-50B-20A%, 30C-50B-30A%, 40C-50B-40A% and 50C-50B-50A% of the recommended densities in their single crops). The maximum agronomic efficiency of the polyculture of coriander, beet and arugula was obtained with the density of 40C-50B-40A and the amount of 19 t ha-1 roostertree biomass incorporated into the soil. The highest profitability of the polyculture was obtained with the density of 20C-50B-20A (%) and the amount of 45 t ha-1 of this green manure. High agro-economic efficiency can be obtained by cultivating the polyculture of coriander, beet and arugula when well-manageding the factors of production, fertilization with roostertree and population densities.
