Abstract
Conventional agricultural production model is economically viable, however, is responsible for numerous negative impacts on the environment and the individuals who compose it. Based on this context there is a need to adopt new technology providing equivalent production in such a way that conserves natural resources and to decrease the negative impacts on the environment. With this objective of this work was to study the cultivation of carrots under the application of biofertilizers. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse. The treatments resulted from the combination of factors fermentation time of biofertilizers, 10, 20, 30 and 40 days and four bio-fertilizer concentrations, 25, 40, 55 and 70%. The experimental design was completely randomized in a factorial 4 x 4, with four replications. The characteristics were plant height and number of leaves every 10 days after thinning and harvesting, post-harvest was estimated number of leaves, plant height, dry mass of leaves and fresh and dry root. For the characteristics evaluated over time was observed that the biofertilizer fermentation time of 26 days and the concentration of 47% biofertilizer promoted greater plant growth. At harvest, it was observed that on average the biofertilizer fermentation time of 30 days and the concentration of 50% biofertilizer promoted enhanced growth and yield of plants.
