Acompanhamento de ensaio envolvendo a cultura do grão-de-bico no Sul do Estado do Tocantins.

Abstract

Of all the volume of chickpeas consumed in Brazil, almost its entire tying comes from imports, although the country has favorable conditions for the good development of the crop, production remains incipient and little widespread. Although it is considered a legume with a cold climate, chickpeas are adapted to tropical regions and tolerate water deficit well. These characteristics date back to the favorable edaphoclimatic conditions that Tocantins has to determine a satisfactory production and possibly contribute to crop expansion in Brazil. For the establishment of culture in the State, adjustments are needed for the productive potential to be achieved. In view of the above, this study aimed to monitor the daily routine of experimental activities in chickpea culture performed by a research group in its experimental unit, as well as to report the execution of these activities and the importance of internship and contact with different lines of knowledge in academic training.
