Eficiencia agronómica del sulfato de magnesio para la emisión foliar del cultivo de maíz (Zea mays L.) en la Parroquia Isla de Bejucal, cantón Baba

Corn is a very important crop for feeding people and animals, therefore its demand is continuously growing, so it is sought to nourish the plant in a correct and timely manner. Magnesium is a macronutrient directly related to chlorophyll since it is the center of This molecule that attributes the greenness of the plants causing photosynthetic reactions of the same. Therefore, the present investigation proposes as objective to evaluate the agronomic efficiency of magnesium sulfate for the foliar emission of the corn crop (Zea mays) in the area of the Isla of Bejucal, the same that was carried out in the properties of Mr. Emilio García Villegas, located in the Isla de Bejucal parish, Baba canton, the geographical coordinates where the essay will be located in UTM are X: 9813736; Y: 650768 whose area has a humid tropical climate, with an average temperature of 24 to 26° with relative humidity of 78%, average annual precipitation of 1796,2 mm, with a height of 11 meters above sea level and 884,7 hours of annual average sunshine. Based on the results, significant effects were found in some agronomic variables of the magnesium sulfate treatments. The result of the application of magnesium sulfate had a higher response height and leaf index compared to the control. Regarding days of flowering, no statistical significance was reported between the treatments. The highest concentration of chlorophyll was found in the treatments with the application of magnesium sulfate at 30 kg/ha and 40 kg/ha. The highest grain yield was obtained in the magnesium sulfate treatment at a dose of 30 kg/ha.
