Soil Fertility Nutrition and Size of the Fruit of Guava with Liquid Organic Fertilizers

In Calvillo, Aguascalientes, guava is produced more than 100 years ago. In order to improve soil
fertility, promote plant growth and improve fruit quality, during 2014-2016 the experiment was carried
out. The fruit manure was prepared, manure tea and compost tea, each applied to the soil, foliage and
soil and foliage plus a witness, each treatment was repeated 4 times and a completely randomized
design was used, the experimental unit was a two-year-old tree of The “China” variety. Applications
were made every eight days. Soil treatments caused significant differences (P < 0.05) in Da, MO and
N. The P increased with the treatments applied to the soil and foliar and the K, Ca and Mg, were
excessive. In the soil solution the TéCS increased by 3.5 mg/kg, N and Na at 16.45 mg/kg. In leaves
the Na increased by 57.4 mg/kg and in fruit the treatments TéEF, TéCFS and AFF increased their
size. It is concluded that liquid organic fertilizers are a good ecological alternative to improve soil
fertility and guava nutrition.
