Sustainable intensification of livestock production systems has become a global demand. In silvopastoral systems, contrasting shading levels caused by the presence of trees interferes in the productive responses of the pasture under grazing. The environment in which plants develop in a pastu...
Aroma is one of the most important sensory attributes for acceptance by beef consumers. The first step in analysing the volatile compounds associated with this attribute is their extraction from the food matrix, solid-phase microextraction has been widely used for volatile compound dete...
The success of different species of ruminants in the colonization of a diverse range of environments is due to their ability to digest and absorb nutrients from cellulose, a complex polysaccharide found in leaves and grass. Ruminants rely on a complex and diverse microbial com...
RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is the most effective method for simultaneously predicting new transcripts and identifying differentially expressed genes among distinct tissues, genotypes, abiotic conditions and developmental stages [1]. Conversely, considering the large amount of data generated from RNA-seq, new...
The present study aimed to investigate whether different lines of a composite breed (5/8 Charolais × 3/8 Zebu), formed at different times, and genetically improved, would result in differences in animal performance, enteric methane emissions, and carcass traits. Forty?six Canchim steers...
Este artigo apresenta e discorre sobre os atributos da agricultura de precisão (ap) e da agricultura digital (ad), expondo as particularidades e sinergias de cada uma delas. Explica como a ap vem sendo empregada nos sistemas de produção vegetal e animal em vários países desde&...
A condutividade elétrica aparente (CEa) do solo é uma medida da capacidade do solo de conduzir uma corrente elétrica. A CEa é uma função da textura e estrutura do solo, sendo particularmente sensível ao seu teor em água, matéria orgânica e solutos. O objetivo deste trabal...
Crop-livestock integrated systems (CLIS) have been used as a strategy of sustainable agricultural intensification which integrates annual crops and livestock activities on the same area and in the same season.
A desmama racional lado a lado (DR) foi implantada no rebanho Canchim da Embrapa CPPSE em 2015, substituindo a desmama tradicional abrupta (DT).
