cactus pear growth and production in a randomized block design, with three replicates, in a
3 x 4 factorial scheme: three spacings, 1.00 x 0.50 m, 2.00 x 0.25 m and 3.00 x 1.00 x 0.25
m, and four fertilizations, 000-000-000, 000-150-000, 200-150-000 and 200-150-100 kg ha-
1 of N, P2O5 and K2O, respectively. Plant growth was evaluated between 90 and 390 days
and production and growth were evaluated at 620 days after planting. There were significant …
