Abstract
The objective of this research was to assess the changes in the nutritional status of sugarcane by the application of mineral fertilizers through a Diagnostic and Recommendation Integrated System (DRIS). A randomized block design, with four replications and 15 treatments was used. The measurements were carried out according to the methodological standards of the Department of Soils and Agrochemicals of INICA. For the development of the research, the foliar concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were taken from 240 samples belonging to the first crop cycle with their respective yields of the cultivar C120-78 during the period 2003 - 2006, under the edaphic conditions of a Vertic Eutric Cambisols soil. The production of stems of each plot was determined by direct weighing, with the use of a dynamometer coupled to a collator, thus estimating the yield variable (t·ha-1 of stems). Reference DRIS norms were calculated and their functions and indices were determined. The nutritional balance index was obtained by adding the DRIS indices. The potential response to the application of nutrients was estimated and the relationship between two variables was demonstrated using scatterplots.
