Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the agronomic performance and physicochemical characteristics of broccoli grown under different doses and sources of special phosphorus (P) fertilizers and their residual effect on the soil, in Cerrado mineiro. A randomized block design arranged in a split-plot scheme was employed, where three P sources—T1 = Conventional monoammonium phosphate (CMP); T2 = Polymerized monoammonium phosphate (PCMP); T3 = Granulated organomineral fertilizer (GOF)—along with four P2O5 rates—1–0 (No P); 2–50% (200 kg ha−1 P2O5); 3–75% (300 kg ha−1 P2O5); and 4–100% (400 kg ha−1 P2O5)—were assessed. Evaluations included the number of leaves (NL), head fresh (HFM) and dry mass (HDM), yield (YLD), soil fertility at harvest, plant nutritional status, and the physicochemical quality of the harvested broccoli. It was observed that GOF provided the best agronomic performance (HFM, HDM and YLD) of the broccoli and the greatest residual effect in the soil compared to PCMP and CMP. The moisture, ash, protein, lipid, total titratable acid and ascorbic acid contents were not significantly (p < 0.05) affected by the fertilizers used, on the other hand, total soluble solids and hydrogen potential showed the highest and lowest values, respectively, with CMP. The best agronomic performance, the highest phosphorus content in the soil and plant and the best physical–chemical quality of the broccoli occurred at a dose of 100% (400 kg ha−1 of P2O5) of the recommendation for the crop in all three fertilizers evaluated.
