Understanding the methane (CH4) emissions that are produced by enteric fermentation is one of main problems to be solved for livestock, due their GHG effects. These affected quantity and quality diets, thus, it key accurately define intake fiber content (NDF) these forage diets. On other hand, different emission prediction equations have been developed; however, there scarce uncertain results regarding evaluation observed in Therefore, objectives this study were evaluate effect NDF a diet on...
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the Agriculture, Forest, and Other Land Use sector account for 23% of net global anthropogenic emissions. However, effective conservation agriculture practices can sequester carbon (C) up to 1 m in soil depth vegetation biomass. Integrated Crop–Livestock–Forestry (ICLF) systems attempt ensure sustainable agricultural production by combining various agricultural, livestock, forestry systems. This bibliographic review aims present discuss ICLF their...
Manual static chamber is one of the most widespread methods for quantification greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions from agricultural systems. But there are concerns about reliability measurements and a necessity to assess chambers used in studies performed countries Latin America. Thus, this study aims investigate quality characteristics methodology, confidence level GHG measurements, recommend what should be improved. We conducted systematic review databases identify peer-reviewed articles...
This study evaluated beef cattle performance, nitrogen (N) dynamics, and potential greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in tropical pastures receiving N fertilization or mixed with legumes. During the cool season, 54 Nellore heifers were randomly allotted to continuous grazing three plots of each pasture type: T1 (Marandu grass 150 kg N/ha), T2 120 T3 Arachis pintoi), T4 Desmodium heterocarpo), T5 without fertilization), T6 (degraded pasture). The stocking rate was periodically adjusted achieve...
Extensive cattle production on native grasslands is vital to the sustainability of South American Pampas, and inclusion tannin-containing legumes can increase farm profitability, improve nitrogen (N) use reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study quantified effects adding enteric methane (CH4) emissions, animal performance N balance in cattle. A crossover design trial was conducted with 22 beef heifers under two treatments: grassland (NG) addition Lotus uliginosus L. angustissimus...
Fertilization of pastures with nitrogen (N) can increase animal productivity and may also the stocks soil carbon (C). Recently stoloniferous forage legumes have been used to develop productive sustainable mixed in Atlantic forest biome. The objective this study was compare impact over 24 years on C N a N-fertilized pasture (Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu) peanut (Arachis pintoi)/ Marandu grass introduced after 8 an elephant (Pennisetum purpureum) pasture. were rotationally grazed by Nellore...
A água é essencial à conservação da vida sobre a Terra, contudo, o homem trata como um bem inesgotável. Assim, torna-se fundamental provocar mudanças culturais, buscando conscientização população. O artigo apresentado tem objetivo estimar potencial pluviométrico captado pela área de coberturaconstruída dentro do campus Instituto Federal Bahia, em Eunápolis. Além abordar, ponto vista Educação Ambiental,o aproveitamento chuva com corpo discente Instituto. Para considerada, foi realizada uma...
