CONTENIDO DE CARBONO EN UN SISTEMA DE PRODUCCION DE PALTO (Persea americana Mill) EN PILLCO MARCA - HUANUCO – 2018.

Abstract

The investigation was carried out in a system of avocado production (Persea americana Mill) var. Has and strong, politically located in the Center for Fruit and Fruit Research (CIFO) - Huanuco. In order to determine the content of organic carbon (COS) at three depths of the soil and estimate the carbon fixed in the aerial and underground biomass of avocado plants by using allometric equations. The methodology used for the field sampling process of probabilistic COS in its Composite Random Sampling form, while for aerial and underground biomes in its optimal stratified sampling form. It was determined that the storage of total organic carbon in the soil by surface between plant and under the tree from 0 to 10 cm deep presents the lowest tendency to store less carbon 9.45 and 10.37 t C/ha respectively. However, as soil depth increases, the rate of organic carbon fixation in the soil tends to increase 17.79 and 10.98 t C/ha from 20 to 30 cm deep. As well as the area and underground biomass of the avocado plants of 7 years of age. The avocado evaluated reached storing 30,239 t C/ha in the aerial biomass and 6,918 t C/ha in the underground biomass. The carbon fixation rate in avocado plants to date stores 5,308 t/ha in total biomass. Keywords: Organic carbon, soil, storage, biomass, fixation rate.
