Abstract(s)
Em Portugal, a região do Oeste é responsável pela produção de cerca de 100 000 toneladas de
tomate por ano em estufa. A importância da cultura para a região é inegável e a aposta no setor é
fundamental, com os sistemas sem solo a ganhar ênfase, numa cultura que é ainda
predominantemente conduzida em solo. De modo a avaliar a possível vantagem da alteração do
sistema produtivo para os produtores da região, foi conduzido um estudo comparativo da qualidade
dos frutos associada a dois sistemas de produção: sem solo (A) e em solo (S) em estufas na região
do Oeste. A maioria dos parâmetros analisados não apresentou diferenças significativas entre
modos de produção, no entanto foram detetadas algumas diferenças importantes, nomeadamente
nos sólidos solúveis totais e índice de maturação, que se revelaram mais elevados em A, enquanto
os frutos da estufa S apresentaram coordenadas de cor que revelam maior luminosidade,
tonalidades mais amareladas e cor mais forte e brilhante.
The Portuguese Oeste region is responsible for the production of approximately 100,000 tons of tomatoes per year in greenhouse. The importance of the culture for the region is undeniable and the investment in the sector is essential. Soilless systems have been gaining increasing importance in a crop that is still predominantly conducted in soil, due to its positive results in controlling production imponderables such as soil diseases and problems associated with salinity. In order to evaluate the possible advantage for the regions tomato producers to change from a soil producing system to a non-soil producing system, a comparative study of fruit quality associated with two production systems was conducted: soilless (A) and in soil (S) in Oeste greenhouses. Most of the analysed parameters did not present significant differences regarding the production method, however some differences were detected in important parameters, such as maturation index and total soluble solids that were higher in A, while the fruits of Greenhouse S showed color coordinates that reveal higher luminosity, more yellowish shades and stronger and brighter color.
