This work evaluated the changes in physicochemical attributes in semiarid soil submitted to domestic sewage submitted to anaerobic treatment, in the presence or absence of the cultivar. The experimental unit was set up in the rural area of Ouro Verde, municipality of São Domingos, state of Bahia, Brazil. Five treatments were tested by diluting wastewater and supply in the percentages 0 %, 25 %, 50 %, 75 %, and 100 %. Soil samples were taken at depths of 0 - 35 cm (P1), and 35 - 70 cm (P2) from the sampling units with cultivar, control units without cultivar, and the unit without treatment (white). The cultivar was of corn (Zea mays L.), of the family Poaceae, which has a relatively short cycle (60 - 120 days). At the end of the experiments, after the harvest, the control units presented average Ca, P, K, and OM percentages from 5% to 66 % higher than white, while in the sample units, the percentages were 4% to 44 % higher, due to consumption by the cultivar. The contribution of TKN in the sampling units was the minimum sufficient for consumption by the cultivar. Compared to the control units, the sampling units presented Na, SAR, PST, and EC percentages higher by 35 - 113 % in P1, and by 29 – 456 % in P2, which indicates a higher consumption of cation by the cultivar in P2; change of ion distribution in the soil cation exchange site; as well as predisposition of the soil to sodification (increase of PST) and salinization (increase of EC). Consequently, the application of treated domestic effluents for agricultural activity, although it adds nutrients to the soil, has negative effects due to the increase in soil sodicity and salinity.

Este trabajo evaluó los cambios en los atributos fisicoquímicos en suelo semiárido sometido a aguas residuales domésticas tratadas por proceso anaeróbico, en presencia o ausencia del cultivar. La unidad experimental se instaló en la zona rural de Ouro Verde, municipio de São Domingos, Estado de Bahía, Brasil. Se probaron cinco tratamientos mediante dilución y suministro de aguas residuales en los porcentajes 0 %, 25 %, 50 %, 75 % y 100 %. Se tomaron muestras de suelo a profundidades de 0 - 35 cm (P1) y 35 - 70 cm (P2) de las unidades de muestreo con cultivar, unidades de control sin cultivar y la unidad sin tratamiento (blanca). El cultivo fue de maíz (Zea mays L.), de la familia Poaceae, el cual tiene un ciclo relativamente corto (60 - 120 días). Al finalizar los experimentos, después de la cosecha, las unidades de control presentaron porcentajes promedio de Ca, P, K y MO de 5% a 66 % más que la blanca, mientras que, en las unidades de muestra, los porcentajes fueron 4% a 44 % más, como consecuencia del consumo por el cultivar. El aporte de NTK en las unidades de muestreo fue el mínimo suficiente para el consumo por el cultivar. En comparación con las unidades de control, las unidades de muestreo presentaron porcentajes de Na, RAS, PST y CE superiores en 35 - 113 % en P1 y 29 - 456 % en P2, lo que indica un mayor consumo de cationes por parte del cultivar en P2; cambio de la distribución de iones en el sitio de intercambio catiónico del suelo; y predisposición del suelo a sodificación (elevación de PST) y salinización (elevación de CE). La aplicación de efluentes domésticos tratados para la actividad agrícola, aunque agrega nutrientes al suelo, tiene efectos negativos debido al aumento de la sodicidad y salinidad del suelo.
