Abstract

The corn grain is mainly used as energetic source, due to low levels of lisin and triptofane in protein. The corn protein level increases with nitrogenous fertilization. This study was carried out to verify the influence of successive cultures with organic fertilization on protein level of corn grain. The Demetria/EA/UFG cultivar is rustic and adapted to organic fertilization. It was observed significant effect every two successive cultures (Tukey 5% probability).

KEY-WORDS: Organic fertilizer; protein; manure.
