Eficiencia agronómica y económica de fertilizantes compuestos en cacao CCN-51

This research was carried out in Eloy Alfaro parish, belonging to Chone Canton, its objective was to evaluate the agronomic and economic efficiency of compound fertilizers in CCN-51 cocoa, proving that fertilization is an important aspect, because it increases the yield and the crop profitability. The plant material used in the trial was CCN-51 cocoa, with a density of 2500 plants ha-1, performing a DBCA with 19 treatments and 3 repetitions, that is, 57 experimental units. The computer-statistical tools used were the Infostat and Excel programs where the yields of the different treatments were obtained in graphical form; after this, the agroeconomic evaluation was carried out where the profitability and agronomic efficiency were determined. The results obtained in this research show that the yield of CCN-51 cocoa was not affected by the fertilization dose tested, so the low dose of 444 kg ha-1 is enough to increase productivity, the biological and economic dose more Efficient efficiency was achieved with 444 kg ha-1 of the Ecocacao Plus fertilizer, with a net economic benefit of 5199 USD ha-1, the highest agronomic efficiency of the fertilization depending on the sources was achieved with Yaramilla integrator.
