With the aim of studying the effect of the irrigation rate on the yield and fruit quality of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck) cv. Folha Murcha, an experiment was conducted in Sítio Jacutinga located in the county of Jeronimo Monteiro, Espirito Santo, Brazil, using orange of the variety Folha Murcha grafted on mandarim Cleópatra, with five years of age, spaced 5 m between rows and 4 m between plants within the line. Five treatments were implemented each with a different irrigation regime (L0 = without irrigation; L1 = 50% of PET; L2 = 75% of PET; L3 = 100% of PET and L4 = 125% of PET), defined based on potential evapotranspiration estimated by the method of Tank Class A. the experimental design was a randomized block with three replications consisting of nine plants in each repetition. In this study, yield per plant (kg), diameter and height of the fruit were evaluated. The irrigation regime 125% of the PET promoted the highest yield of orange Folha Murcha, under the conditions of this study.Downloads
