Degradation and Restoration of Anthrosols in the Amazonia Under Contrasting Agricultural Practices: Evidence From the Assessment of Soil Physical Quality and Carbon and Nitrogen Stocks

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to assess the impact of different agricultural practices on the physical quality and the carbon and nitrogen stocks of anthropogenic soils used by smallholder farmers in Central Amazonia, Brazil. Undisturbed and disturbed soil samples were collected at three depths (0–0.10 m, 0.10–0.20 m, and 0.20–0.30 m), with five ...

Functional product enriched with the microencapsulated extract of cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum Schum.) seed by-product [PDF]

Food Science and Technology, 2020
Abstract This work deals with the application of microencapsulated extract of cupuassu seed by-product to functionally enrich a food multimixture. The methodological bases applied were those of the Official Methods of Analysis of AOAC. Multimixture enrichment with the extract led to 54 and 19% increases in total dietary fiber and total fat contents, to
