| This project aimed to measure the area dedicated to the preservation of native vegetation inside rural properties in the state of Piauí. Based on a territorial section (state of Piauí) and the data declared in the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR), available in the Rural Environmental Registry System of the Ministry of the Environment (SICAR), an analysis of the territorial context of the areas dedicated to the preservation of native vegetation in rural areas was carried out using increasing an ...

| The passage from traditional to modern agriculture in the Amazon has increased energy consumption, intensified the use of natural resources, replaced forest areas with monocultures, causing soil degradation and contamination of hydric resources as a consequence of excessive use of chemical products. The intensification in the use of pesticides, chemical fertilizers and mechanization has contributed to the expansion of monoculture plantations, reducing rural job offers, increasing landholding and Status: Completed Start date: Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2009 |
| Family farming is an economically important segment nationwide, but has many weaknesses of social and technological order. Parallel to this, concerns about the negative environmental impacts of agriculture, livestock and forestry are getting increasingly important on the agenda of society, and the use of inadequate agricultural practices is one of the main causes of degradation of cultivated areas. Given the growing worldwide demand for food, fiber, wood and biofuels, and the consequent need for Status: Completed Start date: Thu May 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |
| Agroforestry systems (AFS) combine planting trees with agricultural crops or animal husbandry and are considered suitable production systems for the Amazon region because they reconcile agricultural production with the conservation of natural resources, which is a great challenge today.

| The project aims to develop/finalize, validate and disseminate technologies that strengthen the chain of production of family-based citrus, collaborating for its socio-economic-environmental sustainability, basically through prospecting in germplasm and the development of products rich in bioactive compounds. In order to conduct the project, a multidisciplinary and interinstitutional team was formed, composed of researchers, extension agents, representatives of the productive chain and consumers Status: Completed Start date: Fri Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2017 |
| The aim of this research is to determine the forage yield, quality and physiology of a Panicum spp. cv. Massai pasture in response to two grazing intensitiesand three irrigation depths. In Tocantins State, the difference between the average monthly minimum and maximum temperature reaches more than 16ºC, evenso, the lowest base temperature observed does not compromise the development of tropical forages. More than 93% of rainfall occurs between October andApril. This way, between May and Septembe ... Status: Completed Start date: Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |

The intense world demand for food together with environmental issues related to the sustainable use of natural resources draw a picture of search for the maximum efficiency in agricultural productivity, which involves greater efficiency in monitoring crop areas. Analytical tools capable of encompassing sample variation and territorial reach demand high costs for their operation and for the replication of results. Remote sensing has proved a very efficient tool for mapping/monitoring agricultu ...Status: Completed Start date: Thu Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
| Surveys carried out by Emater-MG (Corporation of Technical Assistance and Rural Extension of the State of Minas Gerais0) estimate that in the State of Minas Gerais there are approximately 30 thousand artisanal cheese producers. Recent studies in Alagoa-MG and neighboring municipalities characterized the region's milk and cheese production systems in terms of environment (climate, relief, water, soil, etc.) and aspects related to social (producers), microbiological (water, milk, yeast, brine and Status: Completed Start date: Sun Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2021 |
| Irrigation is the largest consumer of available water resources and the project will act on one of the main bottlenecks of this higher water consumption through irrigation, which is the management of water that enters the producers' plots and maintains a high water demand. The objective goal is to provide alternatives for increasing the water use efficiency of banana, papaya and pineapple fruit. The alternatives to be explored are the use of plant density increase for the banana tree; the use of Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
| The project was conducted in order to identify and evaluate alternatives to produce genetically modified embryos and, subsequently, genetically modified ruminant animals, by identifying methods or procedures that enable the production of ruminant transgenic embryos in a more efficient way, reducing time and costs. Such procedures, associated with the insertion of genes of interest, may allow the generation of genetically modified animals capable of producing recombinant proteins important for an Status: Completed Start date: Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
