| ABSTRACT The study was conducted in a greenhouse at the Agricultural Research Corporation of Rio Grande do Norte (EMPARN), in order to evaluate the effect of biofertilizers and potassium phosphate rocks, triple superphosphate (TSP) and potassium chloride (KCl), crushed rocks on the chemical properties of the soil and performance of the bacteria Paenibacillus polymyxa in the absorption of macronutrients by the cowpea bean crop. An Ultisol (10 kg per pot) was used with the addition of biofertilizers at levels 40, 70, 100 and 200% of recommendation for TSP and KCl, inoculated or not with bacteria. There was an effect of fertilization on the absorption of macronutrients, being the best results for P and K with TSP + KCL, and N, Ca and Mg for the... |
