- Abstract
Papaya is a crop with significant economic importance and wide range of cultivation. In order to analyze the quality of papaya production in an agroecological production system, the present study had the objective of evaluating the qualitative total soluble solids, titratable total acidity and degree of sweetness of papaya fruits of the formosa group in an experimentation unit Based on the factors of production gray plant and mulch. The experimental design was in randomized blocks with subdivided plots, consisting of four primary treatments (gray doses) 0, 50, 100 and 150% of the recommended amount of the production factor, two secondary treatments (without and with mulch of carnauba bagana In the ratio of 16 t ha-1) four blocks. The variables analyzed were qualitative total soluble solids (TSS), total titratable acidity (TSS) and the ratio (SST/ATT) (degree of sweetness) that confer them qualities within the standards for commercialization. The results allowed the following conclusions: The fruits of papaya fruit of the Formosa Group presented mean values associated to the total soluble solid qualitative variables (TSS), total titratable acidity (ATT) and confer them qualities close to the standards for commercialization in the market; The degree of sweetness of the papaya fruits measured through the TSS / ATT ratio gives mean values, considering all treatments (primary and secondary) that are twice the average reference value for fruits of the Formosa Group; The culture has great potential for the region and when well managed can be explored at different scales.
