Productive performance and economic analysis of growing rabbits supplemented wi...
Garcia, Renata Porto Alegre; Vieira, Maitê Moraes; Soares, Dayxiele BolicoThe rabbits can improve part of the fibers due to the caecal fermentation process and the habit of caecotrophy. In this sense the use of conserved forage as a feed supplement is an alternative in rabbit breeding since commercial feed being the most expensive input. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of sunflower silage or corn silage in the diet of growing rabbits on performance and diet econom...
Major Sustainable Development Goals applied to Aquaculture
Cavalli, Lissandra Souto; da Rocha, Andréa Ferretto; de Brito, Benito Guimarães; de Brito, Kelly Cristina Tagliari; Rotta, Marco AurélioAquaculture based on environmentally friendly practices is the best alternative for building a better world when it comes to the production of food of animal origin. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations (UN) reinforce and direct this new form of farming. Scientists and farmers are concerned with maintaining stocks and sources of natural resources for the next generations, as well as ...
Physical and hydric attributes of an Argissolo cultivated with peach: variation...
Suzuki, Luis Eduardo Akiyoshi Sanches; Reisser Júnior, Carlos; Miola, Ezequiel Cesar Carvalho; Rostirolla, Pablo; Scherer, Vinícius SaldanhaThe objective of this research was to evaluate the physical and hydric attributes of an Argissolo (Ultisol) in the peach orchard. The experiment was installed in a four-year-old peach orchard, in plots with and without irrigation, with soil sampling in two layers (0.00 to 0.05 m and 0.10 to 0.15 m), in the position of the orchard wheel line, interline planting, line planting and near the peach plant. Undisturbe...
Land use and soil quality in peri-urban farms in Southern Brazil
Cassimo, Agi Costa; Nascimento, Paulo César; de Lima, Patrícia Lima; Tornquist, Carlos Gustavo; Bissani, Carlos AlbertoSmall family farms constitute a major part of land use in the surrounding regions of Brazilian cities, as these farms not only contribute to the food supply, but also help conserve rural landscapes and improve environmental services. This study evaluated agricultural impacts on soil quality in seven family farms in Porto Alegre municipality, Rio Grande do Sul state, RS. Selected production units (PUs) were mana...
Physico-chemical characterization of peach ‘Eldorado’ produced in different sys...
Costa, Vagner Brasil; Fachinello, José CarlosThe most important peach production regions in Rio Grande do Sul are: Pelotas, Porto Alegre County and Serra Gaúcha. The study aimed to physicochemical characterization of cv. “Eldorado” peaches produced in different conduction systems of plants. The experiment was done in the experimental orchard of the Agricultural Center of Palma (FAEM/UFPel) in the crop year of 2006/2007. It was used orchard planted in 2000...
Organic sources of animal-derived nutrients in artichoke development and produc...
Dal Magro-Gusberti, Tais Rui; Rupp, Luis Carlos Diel; Sandri, Miguel AngeloArtichoke is an alternative of extra income for farmers, especially in the Serra Gaúcha region. However, there are few studies on this crop regarding organic fertilization. The objective of this project was to evaluate different organic sources of nutrients in the production and quality of this culture. The experiment was carried out in the town of Fagundes Varela - RS, from April 21, 2018 to November 10, 2018....
Eucalyptus staigeriana essential oil can control downy mildew in grapevine
Pedrotti, Carine; Franzoi, Clarissa; Sandi, Rafael Nicolas; Santos Grohs, Daniel; Schwambach, JoséliDowny mildew (Plasmopara viticola) is the primary disease in viticulture worldwide, and your control requires synthetic fungicides applications to avoid quality and yield loss in the grapevines. However, alternatives to reduce synthetic fungicides are needed to ensure the consumer’s health and the environment. Essential oils (EOs) are amongst the most promising natural plant protection alternatives because of t...
Profitability of various cropping patterns among arable crop farmers in Niger S...
OJETUNDE, Babatunde Stephen; ODUM, Emmanuel Egbodo BohejeDescriptive Statistics and Net Farm Income model was used to analyze data collected from 120 Arable Farmers who adopted various cropping patterns in Niger State, Nigeria. The study specifically examined the socio-economic characteristics of arable farmers, profile the cropping patterns adopted, examined the profitability and highlighted the constraints to crop production among arable farmers in the study area. ...
Productivity and quality of sweet potato roots cultivation with and without chi...
Steffler, Andersson Daniel; Canepelle, Eduardo; Rotili Junior, Rodrigo; Redin, MarcielSweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) has cultural, social and economic importance due to its rusticity and wide climate adaptation, being cultivated in Brazil for human and animal food. However, cultivation is carried out mainly without fertilization and with Creole cultivars. The objective was to evaluate the yield and quality of roots of sweet potato cultivars with and without fertilization of chicken manure in an ...
Agronomic evaluation of ‘Riesling Itálico’, ‘Chardonnay’, ‘Merlot’ and ‘Caberne...
Anzanello, Rafael; Graeff Tasso, Tainan; Martellet Fogaça, Cláudia; Cargnin, Adeliano; Duc Haa Carson Schwartzhaupt da Conceição, LeoThis study aimed to evaluate clones of ‘Riesling Itálico’, ‘Chardonnay’, ‘Merlot’ and ‘Cabernet Franc’ grapevines that best adapt to the edaphoclimatic conditions in Veranópolis, RS. The experiment was carried out at the State Center for Diagnosis and Research in Fruticulture - DDPA/SEAPDR. Three 'Riesling Itálico' clones (ISV-1, RI12V23, VCR-365), four 'Chardonnay' clones (INRA-95, INRA-132, INRA-548, VCR-6), ...
