At this research, it was evaluated the cassava waste water application effects in Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5, being employed a hydraulic sprinkler, having as treatments all the waste water depth accumulated during the crop cycle, which are 0, 100, 275, 290, 328 and 366, applied during 10 weeks, for 4 continuous hours of irrigation a week, totaling 40 hours of irrigation that occurred from November 20, 2008 to January 30, 2009, when the pasture was cut. Soil and tissue plant were analyzed before and at the end of the experiment. Biomass and dry matter were analyzed at the end of the experiment. It was conclude that there is no restriction in the use of cassava waste water in the fertigation of the evaluated grass for these waste water depths; that the plant’s height isn’t a good reference to estimate the dry matter productivity of this grass when irrigated with waste water; that the waste water application caused an organic matter level increasing at the layer from 20 to 40 cm of depth, and an Al level increasing at the layer from 0 to 20 cm of depth; and that, in function of waste water depth (L), the absorbing efficiency of N and P related to the witness was adjusted by a quadratic function, and for the K, it was adjusted linearly. Key words: waste water, irrigation, dry mass 1. Introduction In the process of industrialization of cassava starch, each ton of processed roots can produce up to 2.5 m 3 of wastewater (Cereda 2001) composed of formation water from the roots, washing and process. The application of this waste, according to Saraiva et al (2007) increases the levels of organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in the soil. On the other hand its indiscriminate use can change the balance of cations and pollute the soil and groundwater, presenting itself as a residue favourable for fertilization and unfavourable to pollution of soil and water, depending on the management practices used in your application. The quantity of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) of this wastewater can meet crop demand (Anami et al., 2008 and Pelissari et al., 2009), but their applications must be monitored because the mobility of these ions on the ground in various stages of plant growth (Santos et al., 2009) and soil management (Pearson and Ison, 1997). In addition to nutrients this residue is an important source of water for irrigation in the border of the cassava industry, reaching estimated values of 10.000.000m 3 a year in the northwest of Paraná State. The acclimation of Brachiaria brizantha Stapf in the northeaster state of Paraná, this allows grass to produce up to 18 Mg DM ha -1 yr -1 (Souza 2002), often pastured 30-35 days (Correa 1999), presenting in its nutritional composition, 11 to 18, 0,6 to 1.2; 11 to18, 2 to 4 and 1.2 to 2.3 gKg -1 respectively of N, P, K, Ca and Mg. The objective of this study was to take the wastewater from the cassava industry as a source of water and nutrients applied on Brachiaria brizantha cv. MG-5.
2 Material end methods The wastewater (WW) was derived from the first environment of a system for wastewater treatment industry cassava and applied with a hydraulic gun with a fixed, maintaining a range of application of 30 meters for 10 weeks, 4 hours per week, totalling 40 hours of irrigation in the period from 20 November 2008 to January 23, 2009. It was used a point source with 6 treatments, 0, 100, 275, 296, 328 and 366 mm of WW applied during the production cycle, respectively L1, L2, L3, L4, L5 and L6, spaced bands at 35, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30m away from the hydraulic gun. The samples analyzed for nutritional grass and soil fertility, were performed in the same rays according to Oliveira et al. (1991) and Embrapa (1997). The experimental area was set equal to a cut grading on November 20, 2008. Quantifying the production of dray matter (DM) was performed on /1/30/2009, using samples of the grass cut 1.0 cm from the soil in an area of 0.16 m 2 . The soil was characterized as Udult soil (Embrapa 1999) and during experiment were recorded by station City Gaucha, Paraná, Brazil, 431,8 mm of rainfall and the temperature were 30.0 and 21.0 o C respectively maximum and minimum . The fertility of the soil was measured by the difference between the control and each treatment of the bases sum (Sb) and the organic matter (OM) layers of soil from 0.20 and 0.40 m .depth. To evaluate the extraction of soil nutrients by the grass was calculated efficiency of absorption of nutrients which is the percentage of increase of nutrients in relation fo control according to equation 1. Ni Nt Ear .100 (1) Nt Were: Era: relative efficiency of nutrient absorption by the crops, %; Ni: content in the leaves of grass, after harvest, gKg -1 ; I, treatment, mm and Nt: content in the leaves of the grass after harvest the control treatment, gKg -1 3 Results and discussion The chemical composition of major plant nutrients was found in RA used in this study collected the hydraulic gum at the time of application is presented in Table 1 which differs from those shown by Fioretto (2003) and Silva (2005) demonstrating the diversity of composition of this waste.

However the production of dry matter (DM) grass has been continued increasing in the range of L studied, 6.7 to 26.0 Mg ha -1 . Both the linear and quadratic equation and its terms are significant at p≤ 0.01.
