Overseeding annual summer pastures on soybean crops to overcome the autumnal forage shortage

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2023
: In integrated crop-livestock systems, overseeding annual summer pastures over grain crops can reduce forage shortages in autumn without altering grain production. This study evaluated the influence of pearl millet (Pennisetumglaucum L.) and sudangrass (

Phosphorus use efficiency in agricultural systems: A comprehensive assessment through the review of national scale substance flow analyses

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
This paper redefined the agricultural production system and its subsystems with respect to phosphorus (P) flow to improve the assessment of the phosphorus use efficiency (PUE), which is a key indicator for P security and sustainability of water resources.

Eddy covariance assessment of alternate wetting and drying floodwater management on rice methane emissions

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Reducing methane emissions and water use is critical for combating climate change and declining aquifers on food production. Reductions in irrigation water use and methane emissions are known benefits of practicing alternate wetting and drying (AWD) over

Management and Productivity of Key Integrated Crop–Livestock Systems in Uruguay: The Palo a Pique Long-Term Experiment’s Third Phase

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Integrated Crop Livestock Systems (ICLSs) use productive diversification as a strategy to improve productivity and land use efficiency. Pasture Crop Rotations are a part of ICLSs and imply a pasture phase included in the sequence of crops.

Routes of Soil Uses and Conversions with the Main Crops in Brazilian Cerrado: A Scenario from 2000 to 2020

open access: yesLand, 2021
The Brazilian Savannah, also known as Cerrado Biome, is a hotspot for Brazilian biodiversity. The hypothesis tested in this study is that there are diverse routes of soil uses for agriculture production in Cerrado, derived mainly from areas with pasture (

Microbiological and structural quality of Oxisol under pasture renewal systems

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2021
The central Brazilian Savanna biome, known as Cerrado, has a vast area of pastures affected by some degree of degradation, where one of the main challenges is incorporating these areas into a crop production system.

Economic viability in the integrated crop-livestock system with nitrogen fertilization system and sward canopy heights

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
Integrated crop-livestock systems (ICLS) are complex production strategies whose main components are soil, plant, and animal. Several studies addressed the interaction among them and conclude on the technical feasibility of these systems, but few studies

Pasture Productivity Assessment under Mob Grazing and Fertility Management Using Satellite and UAS Imagery

open access: yesDrones, 2022
Pasture management approaches can determine the productivity, sustainability, and ecological balance of livestock production. Sensing techniques potentially provide methods to assess the performance of different grazing practices that are more labor and ...

How to Improve the Benefits of Short-Term Fallow on Soil Physicochemical and Microbial Properties: A Case Study from the Yellow River Delta

open access: yesLand, 2023
Fallowing is regarded as an effective method for the self-recovery management of farmland and is generally used in cultivated land management. Studies have shown that long-term fallow has many ecological and environmental benefits. However, the long-term

Economic gains from crop-livestock integration in relation to conventional systems

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2020
The objective with this study was to calculate the total cost of maize production and beef cattle in permanent pasture activities in separate production systems (conventional) and integrated systems (maize production plus beef cattle), as well as to ...
