Agrosilvopastoral system enhances suppressiveness to soybean damping-off caused...
Roese, Alexandre Dinnys; Ribeiro Junior, Paulo Justiniano; Porfírio-da-Silva, Vanderley; May De Mio, Louise LarissaIntegrated crop-livestock systems (ICLS) are sustainable options for agricultural diversification, but there have been few studies on the influence of ICLS on soil microorganisms. This work investigated the influence of agropastoral (AP) and agrosilvopastoral (ASP) systems, compared with a non-integrated crop (CO) on the suppression of Rhizoctonia solani and on the density of Fusarium and Trichoderma propagules...
Damages caused by cattle on different tree species in silvopastoral systems
Porfírio-da-Silva, Vanderley; Moraes, Anibal de; Moletta, José Luis; Pontes, Laíse da Silveira; Oliveira, Edilson Batista de; Pelissari, AdelinoWe assessed the damage done by cattle in three species of trees in a silvopastoral system implanted in the subtropical region of Brazil. The species Schinus terebinthifolius (Raddi), Grevillea robusta (A. Cunn. Ex R. Br) and Eucalyptus dunnii (Maiden), were planted in single rows (14 m x 3 m) to compose a silvopastoral system. During the first three years, the area was used for grain production in alley croppin...
Earthworms of a Silvopastoral System of Northwestern State of Paraná, Brazil
Jardeveski, Roberta; Porfírio-da-Silva, VanderleyEarthworms are known to increase soil bulk density, soil porosity, mixing of organic matter, and to strengthen aggregation of soil particles. They perform important functions in the maintenance and stabilization of the soil matrix. So, earthworms can be used as indicators of the quality and health of soils. More emphasis on studying underground components, such as earthworms, is required in order to better unde...
