Abstract
The production of Coffea canephora P. in Cuba has been increased in the last years such as the areas with this, especially in those areas where the Arabic cannot produce as it is waiting for due to the infection of nematodes or due to ecological limitations in zones under 400 msnm. The investigation was carried out with the objective of knowing the use of potassium fertilizers in the production of Coffea canephora P., the production of biomass and the extraction and benefit of this element in the Estación Experimental Agroforestal Velasco, Holguín province. The trees were planted in 1997 in Brown gray soil without carbonates and pruned in 2003. It was evaluated the production in t • h–1 of clean coffee. In 2006 were selected trees of the treatment without potassium fertilizers and of the K160 and were divided in leaves, green stem, lignificate stem, green branches, lignificate branches, roots, fruits and fall leaves such as to determine the dry mass. It was carried out the chemical analysis of the different organs in order to determine the requirements of N, P2O5 and K20. Through the method of the differences was calculated the coefficient of the well used. The application of K permitted the production between 1 and 2 t • ha–1 of gold coffee, and increased of 22.9 % in the production of biomass and the extraction of 492.7; 62.7 and 310.2 kg • ha–1 of N, P2O5 and K2O respectably. The coefficient of well used of potassium fertilizer was 40.7 %.
