ABSTRACT: Basil, an annual herbaceous plant with the scientific name Ocimum basilicum L. belonging to the Lamiaceae family is a plant that produces essential oils, which are widely used. In Brazil, the leaves are grown and sold, and can be used fresh, fresh or dried as a condiment or as a flavoring. Its cultivation is an alternative that generates jobs and income for small farmers. Since the cultivation of basil has grown proportionately on the market and the cultivation in different sources of fertilization in a protected environment provides significant gains in production, this research aimed to evaluate the efficiency of organic substrates in the development of basil (Ocimum basilicum L. ). The research was conducted during the period from April 2019 to June 2019, in a greenhouse belonging to the State University of Alagoas. The components used in the preparation of the substrates were: soil with goat manure, soil with bovine manure, soil with avian litter, soil with earthworm humus and sieved soil. Phenological monitoring was carried out weekly. The data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance by the F test, then the significant characters were subjected to the Tukey test at 5% probability using the SISVAR software 5,6. Among the tested sources, the poultry litter is the most suitable for the development of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.), as it showed a significant response to the variables analyzed in this study. The normal soil showed a significant result for the root length variable, which is probably related to the high natural fertility of the soil in the experimental area, thus meeting the needs of the crop.
