The impact of climate on sorghum cultivation is generated mainly by scenarios of increased temperaturewhichcan affect plant development and cause losses in crop yield. Thus, this work aimed to evaluate sorghum cultivars tolerant to high temperatures through the evaluation of biometric, enzym...

Resumo: A podridão azeda, causada por Geotrichum citri-aurantii , é uma doença fúngica pós-colheita que afeta frutas cítricas. Devido à ausência de produtos químicos certificados para controlar essa doença, métodos alternativos, como o tratamento hidrotérmico e a radiação UV-C têm sido explo...

The production of seedlings is a determining factor for the establishment and success of the coffee plantation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the production of Coffea canephora seedlings by cuttings in a modified hydroponic system and in a conventional nursery, using&...

Abstract: The pressing urgency of global climate change demands immediate action. In Brazil, the agricultural sector stands out as a significant contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing 33.2% of the nation's total emissions (Brazil, 2021). Effective mitigation and management...

Lower water availability due to climate change has dramatically affected coffee yields and quality. Characteristics related to plants and soil can be explored to obtain more productive and sustainable coffee production under adverse crop conditions. To this end, the objective of this st...

Abstract: To mitigate greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions and increase energy security, Brazil plans to increase biofuel use through, among other strategies, mandates of biodiesel (BD) mix on fossil diesel. From March 2024 onwards, BD added to diesel was 14%(wv> and, from March 2025...

Exploiting renewable and high yield feedstocks is essential for the sustainable development of industries across various sectors, including chemical, food, pharmaceutical, and agribusiness. In this context, macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) provides two distinct sources for oil, pulp and kernel, making it&...

Abstract: The Embrapa-designed Footprint Pro Carbon calculator, integrated into the Bayer Pro Carbon Connect platform, plays a pivotal role in quantifying carbon emissions across agricultural processes. It encompasses both foreground (agricultural processes) and background (agricultural input production) aspect...

The evaluation of grain quality traits is essential in rice breeding programs. However, their complexity and multitude of components make the process challenging. The aim was to evaluate the industrial, physical, chemical, and cooking quality traits of upland rice grains and to identify...
