However, soil tillage for cultivation involves the use of plowing, disking and ridging preparation to the realization of planting. That practices accelerates the process of soil degradation, decreasing soil organic matter and favoring the salinization process. Conservation practices such as the use of green manures and no tillage, are incorporated into the concept of systems to compose a low carbon emission. To adjust a technological model of tillage of melon plant for the Brazilian semiarid system and to compose the crops rotation systems of this vegetable, are being conducted long-term experiments, using plant mixtures as green manures and two tillage systems of soil. This study aimed to monitoring the impact of green manure crops in the form of plant mixtures, and soil management on productivity and fruit quality of melon. The initial stage of the experiment allows us to infer that the cultivation of plant mixtures did not change the productivity and fruit quality though, in the second year of cultivation, management factor affecting the productivity. aSoil aAdubação Verde aCucumis Melo aMelão aPlantio Direto aSolo aGreen manure aManejo de solo aMelon1 aBRANDAO, S.
