Portuguese term

operação de amontoa

Portuguese to English Other Agriculture
O documento é um relatório de estudo feito com pesticida aplicado em batata.

Na descrição das amostras, tem-se:
- 01 amostra obtida dos frutos tratados no campo com a dose de 300 mL do inseticida aplicada no sulco de plantio.
- 1 amostra obtida dos frutos tratados no campo com a dose de 300 mL do inseticida aplicada na ***operação de amontoa***.

Pelo que pesquisei, 'Operação de amontoa' é o aterramento - é isso? Mas não consigo encontrar o termo equivalente em inglês.

Grata.

earthing-up process/procedure

Sim, creio que a amontoa é o aterramento das sementes.

O termo é earthing-up. Veja esse vídeo:

Earthing-up: The drawing up of soil around plants, usually with a draw hoe or drag fork. It is carried out on potato crops to prevent greening of tubers and blight infection; also used on brassicas to prevent wind-rock, on leeks and celery to blanch the stems, and in layering and stooling of fruit-tree rootstocks, to encourage the formation of roots on the earthed-up shoots.
