摘要

As alternative to supply the energy demand in semiarid Brazil, the biomass production of elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum) is a promising alternative. However, the cultivation of grass depends on several factors, including the chemical conditions of some soils which may limit productivity. Thus, the proper use of mineral gypsum as soil corrector can increase the production of biomass. Furthermore, the genetic characteristics of the varieties of elephant grass may influence their ability to produce energy, due to their different levels of fiber and lignin. This study aimed at assessing the energy performance of three varieties of elephant grass grown in the absence and presence of mineral gypsum. Three elephant grass varieties Cameroon, Gramafante and Roxo were cultivated in the field condition in the presence and absence of mineral gypsum in a factorial arrangement (3 × 2), with treatments randomly assigned to four blocks. The research was conducted at the Experimental Station of the Agronomic Institute of Pernambuco in Araripina Pernambuco State, Brazil. The biomass above the elephant grass was cut from the soil surface, 213 days after planting. The evaluations were carried out on traits such as levels of fiber in neutral detergent, acid detergent fiber, lignin, moisture, dry matter content and higher heating value. The elephant grass varieties Cameroon and Gramafante presented higher heating value and high dry matter production reinforced by application of mineral gypsum. The variety Cameroon showed the highest energy production per unit area. Thus, the use of elephant grass mainly of Cameroon and Gramafante varieties has great potential to solve or minimize the energy deficit of Gypsum Pole of Araripe in Pernambuco.
