Impact of soils and cropping systems on mineral composition of dry cacao beans

In view of its high economic value, cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) scientists are seeking technological innovations that increases production and improve quality of cacao beans. The objective of this study was to characterize the mineral (N, K, P, Ca, Mg, Si, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Cd, Ba) composition of cacao...

The objective of this study was to characterize the mineral (N, K, P, Ca, Mg, Si, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Cd, Ba) composition of cacao beans of clone PH-16 grown in different soil types (Argisols, Cambisols and Latosols) and cropping systems (Cacao Cabruca, Cacao x Erythrina and Cacao x Rubber).

Silicon content in cacao beans is proportionately close to the content of macronutrients. Variations in the content of Mn, Fe, Zn, Cu, Cd and Ba in cacao beans were related to the cropping sites because these mineral elements did not show any significant correlations with each other.
