Stylosanthes cv. Campo Grande response to Bradyrhizobium inoculation in an Amazon Cerrado Oxisol
Abstract Species of the genus Stylosanthes show great potential for use in mixed pastures and as green manure due to their symbiotic potential in symbiosis with diazotrophic bacteria, particularly Bradyrhizobium. These herbaceous legumes can improve pasture quality and contribute to sustainability.

Urochloa species are widely used in silvopastoral systems (SPS), but production losses highlight the need for more productive forages. This study evaluated agronomic, physiological, chemical composition, and in vitro digestibility responses of Urochloa brizantha cv. Piatã and Megathyrsus maximus cvs.

Performance of Beef Cattle Under Grazing as Affected by Urochloa decumbens Cultivars
ABSTRACT Testing animal performance under grazing is fundamental to determine the potential of recently released, high‐yielding Urochloa decumbens hybrids. The objective was to evaluate the weight gain of young bulls grazing on pastures of U. decumbens cultivars Basilisk, BRS Carinás, and BRS Poraitê, as well as to assess the nutritive value and plant ...

Calibration and evaluation of a carbon net primary productivity module based on the SIMPLE model
Abstract This study presents the carbon net primary productivity (CNPP) module, an implementation of the simple generic crop model (SIMPLE model) that we have extended to predict aboveground and belowground biomass production and carbon assimilation. The goal for this module is to predict biomass inputs at and below the soil surface, during and at the ...
