Resumen:
The work had as objective to evaluate yields of banana cv. Prata Anã for five levels of
Nitrogen, potassium and irrigation depths. The experiment was carried with 15 treatments following a
random block design, with three replications, according to a Plan Puebla experimental matrix. The
factors were irrigation depth (LI), N and K doses. There were five levels for each factor. Irrigation was
applied daily and N and K by irrigation water. A variance analysis was performed concerning bunch
yield and number of fruit per bunch for a period of harvest of 03/31/2004 to 03/31/2005. The dependent
variables were more sensible to application of nitrogen and irrigation water than to potassium
application. The application of 378 kg/ha of N, 432 kg/ha of KzO and 105%ETc was the most adequate
for the banana crop under the experiment conditions.
