The object of this work was to verify the utility of a level IV fugacity model to simulate the environmental fate of the insecticide carbofuran when employed in the cultivation of irrigated rice. The model simulated the dynamic distribution of…

Studies on the impact of Eucalyptus spp. on Brazilian soils have focused on soil chemical properties and isolating interesting microbial organisms. Few studies have focused on microbial diversity and ecology in Brazil due to limited coverage of traditional cultivation and…

Despite numerous studies reporting on sustainable consumption or organic consumer profiles, there is a gap in thorough understanding of organic consumers in different places, since most of studies only investigate organic consumption in most developed countries. The goal of this…

The knowledge of field management zones based on soil attributes can be helpful for the implementation of site-specific management. This work had the objective of analyzing the spatial dependence of soil attributes of the 0-0.20 m and 0.20-0.40 m layers…

Asian soybean rust caused by Phakoprsora pachyrhizi is one of the most important diseases for soybean cultivation. The disease causes yield loss as high as 80%. Until now, fungicide applications were most reliable control measure. However, farmers often lose timing…
