http://dx.doi.org/10.5902/198050985082Os componentes utilizados na produção de substratos influem diretamente no ciclo vegetativo, qualidade e consequentemente nos custos das mudas. Nesse experimento estudou-se o desenvolvimento, mudas Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden × urophylla S. T. Blake, por meio propagação sexuada, utilizando 12 composições substrato. A análise dos resultados evidenciou que os puros, a exceção da fibra coco, não apresentaram características físicas adequadas para...
Background: In the context of mechanized timber harvesting, alterations in technical parameters, such as skidding distance and terrain slope, have potential to influence productivity production costs associated with self-propelled grapple skidder. Furthermore, these variables are inherently uncertain, which could potentially cause forest managers make inaccurate decisions. The objective was analyze whether four distances two slope classes skidder Eucalyptus planted forests from a stochastic...
To produce cuttings with quality, the most appropriate nutritional management strategies should be sought to reduce wastage of fertilizer, while accounting for characteristics each substrate. This study evaluated effect substrates and doses controlled-release fertilizer on quality Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden x urophylla S. T. Blake cuttings. The consisted several mixtures: vermiculite+carbonized rice chaff+coconut fibre (1:1:1); vermiculite+coconut (1:1); chaff (1:1). These mixtures...
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of substrates made composted sewage sludge and irrigation depths on growth quality E. grandis x urophylla cuttings optimize water management for each substrate. The were obtained from with sugarcane bagasse or Eucalyptus bark, namely: (1:3 v:v); bark v:v) a mixture both in volumetric proportion 2:1 (v:v). Commercial substrate composed Sphagnum peat, vermiculite rice husk (3:1:1 v:v: v) was used as control. tested 11, 14 17 mm, applied two daily...
Choosing the ideal number of rotations planted forests under a silvicultural management regime results in uncertainties cash flows forest investment projects. We verified if there is parity Eucalyptus wood price modeling through fractional Brownian motion and geometric to incorporate managerial flexibilities into projects forests. use empirical data from three production cycles with grandis × E. urophylla projection discounted flows. The price, assumed as uncertainty, was modeled using...
With the growing demand for investment projects in renewable energy, it is essential economic feasibility analysis to consider inherent uncertainties of these and enable more accurate decisions. In this way, we analyze whether photovoltaic panels produce electrical energy a forest nursery are economically viable through real options. We with an initial USD 90,417 panels. The managerial flexibilities deferral, expansion 30.0% production capacity, project’s abandonment were inserted into...
The amount of available water for nursery irrigation is forecasted to decline on this decade and over or deficit watering seedlings may have adverse consequences. To produce quality accelerate the restoration ecosystems prevent further environmental damage, management should be reformed, especially endangered species, such as Aspidosperma polyneuron Müll. Arg. objective work was evaluate effect three gross depths (8, 11 14 mm) applied daily two frequencies (two four times a day) growth,...
Research Highlights: The mean leaf angle and crown projection area can be used as criteria for grouping tree seedling species in different irrigation zones nurseries with overhead microsprinkler systems, preventing water fertilizer waste, increasing growth. Background Objectives: There are important gaps current functional knowledge about how plant architecture, especially the angles of seedlings, affect nutrient solution capture systems. These contribute to waste nurseries. This research...
Background: Experts in ecological restoration have discussed the cost reduction to make forest financially feasible. This is very important developing countries, such as Brazil, and for smallholder farmers; however, economic studies do not usually consider uncertainties their analysis. Therefore, this study aimed analyze, under conditions of uncertainty, how tropical tree seedlings produced polyethylene bags, tubes, biodegradable containers (Ellepot®) interfere with costs implementation...
