Weed plants are one of main factors that affect the production of oilseed crops. Their management have been based on chemical control with herbicides, like glyphosate and 2,4-D, due to usefulness and efficiency of applications. However, their use must be managed correctly to mitigate the spray drift. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate efficacy and spray drift from glyphosate and 2,4-D applications with adj...
The present work aimed to determine the toxicity of linalool and evaluate the lethal and toxic effects of linalool associated with pyrethroids in binary mixtures to fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda). The insects used in the experiment were obtained from stock breeding initiated from larvae collected from conventional corn plants, grown in an experimental area, in the city of Uberlândia, Minas Gerais. Also, ...
Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) is an aromatic and medicinal crop that produces metabolites rich in chemical constituents for various purposes. The composition of the essential oil is variable due to external factors during production, such as fertilization and the environment, and the oil concentration may vary even among the genotypes of a species. For sweet basil mores studies are needed to clarify underst...
Among the pests that attack the maize, the maize leafhopper, which causes direct damages by sap-sucking and indirect ones, stands out as being a vector of pathogens and viruses, and can cause losses of up to 100% of the production. An alternative to improve the chemical control of this pest is the use of electrostatic spraying technology. However, there is no research support. This study aimed to evaluate the d...
Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação); A utilização de plantas medicinais faz parte da rotina da maioria dos povos, desde aqueles que tem costumes primitivos até o homem atual. Nos assentamentos, a população é carente quanto ao atendimento médico. Por isso, ela utiliza, quando necessita, as ervas desses locais.

Nowadays, few studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of tank mixture of pesticides on pest chemical control in maize crops, however the farmers are often using these mixtures, without any technical support. The current study focused on assessing some pesticide mixtures to control Spodoptera frugiperda with triflumuron in a conventional corn hybrid. Moreover, this experiment aimed to assess likely pl...
Considering the contemporary scenario of the brazilian agriculture, one aspect that is very important for the success of this activity is the correct use of phytosanitary products, which plays crucial role on controlling pests, diseases and weeds. In this context, raising awareness and training of both farmers and farm employees are indeed crucial; however, this is not what is commonly seen in most cases leadin...
Fundação de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais; Lavender is grown commercially for the production of essential oil to obtain various products of perfumery and aromatherapy. In the case of aromatic species, the presence of oxygenated monoterpenes can ensure medicinal properties and therapeutic effects of essential oils. On the other hand, the content and the chemical composition of essential oil depends...
