The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical characteristics of the forage and ingestive behavior of Nellore heifers fed hydrolyzed sugarcane in different periods of storage. Twenty-four heifers with initial body weight of 119.6±8.1 kg were utilized. The experimental ...

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is grown on over 8 million ha in Brazil and is used to produce ethanol and sugar. Some sugarcane fields are burned to facilitate harvesting, which can affect the soil microbial community. However, whether sugarcane pre-harvest burning affects the commun...

ABSTRACT Among weeds, morning glories comprise a very important group of climbing plants that infest sugarcane crops. The objective of this study was to evaluate the shoot and root interference of Merremia cissoides on the initial growth of sugarcane cultivar RB 966928. The exper...

The sugarcane international scenery and their industrialized products are extremely interesting, mainly for Brazil the largest sugars world manufacturing and the largest cane ethanols producing. In this context the São Paulo State, the largest producing of the Federation demonstr...

The lack of information about the effects of cultivars, crop age and climate on the sugarcane (Saccharum ssp.) crop yield and quality has been the primary factor impacting the sugar-ethanol sector in Brazil. One of the processes about which we do not have a satisfactory understan...

ABSTRACT Sugarcane growing area in Brazil sharply expanded between 2000 and 2010 due to the increasing world demand for sugar and ethanol. Since this expansion of sugarcane is said to occur in areas covered by degraded pastures, it is likely not threatening the environment or foo...

ABSTRACT Brazil's location and tropical weather conditions are favourable cultivating sugarcane, which has led to Brazil being one of the world's largest producers of sugarcane. The influence of the sugarcane industry on its economy stands out among the indicators of Brazilian ec...

Sugarcane is one of the most important Brazilian crops. Its importance is increasing due to the gradual substitution of fossil fuel for renewable and cleaner energy sources, such as ethanol Consequently, the biotechnological aspects that mediate sugarcane-bacterium interactions m...

The objective of this study was to evaluate, in Nellore heifers, intake and digestibility of hydrolyzed sugarcane stored for different periods. The experimental design used was a 4 × 4 Latin square, four diets, four Nellore heifers with ruminal cannulas (initial body weight 285.4...

Sugarcane ethanol, considered a major source of clean energy, is an option for changing the energy matrix of Brazil and also the world, contributing to the reduction in consumption of fossil fuels. In Brazil, Goiás State is one of the sugarcane expansion s frontiers to meet the g...

Introduction: The oral transmission of Chagas disease has been calling the attention in the last few years, especially because of the occurrence of outbreaks due to the ingestion of food such as sugar cane juice, with the possibility of contamination by sylvatic reservoirs of Try...

ABSTRACT The mechanized sugarcane harvesting process is considered one of the major economic bottlenecks, with low operational efficiency and, mainly, high losses of stalks left in the field. In order to minimize these problems and assist in the improvement of processes, this stu...

With the retake of the agro-energetic policies, the Central Government in Brazil was forced to present public policies to stimulate the expansion of the sugarcane agribusiness in the nation. The agroindustrial sector related to the production of juices and sugarcane derivatives i...

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is an efficient and sustainable alternative for energy generation compared to non-renewable sources. Currently, during the mechanized harvest process, the straw left in the field can be used in part for the second generation ethanol and increasing the e...

ABSTRACT Spatial variability evaluation of qualitative attributes can be used as an excellent strategy to design forms of intervention that result in better crop profitability for some agricultural crops, for example, sugarcane. Based on the assumption that qualitative attributes...

There is a trend for expansion in the area cultivated with sugarcane, mainly due to the increase in global demand for biofuels. Due to economic and legal reasons unburned sugarcane harvesting system is increasing rapidly. However, little is known about the sugarcane trash effect ...

Abstract A T1 (sugarcane population originating from true seeds) and T2 (first sugarcane clonal stage) population were used to estimate genetic parameters and compare selection strategies for Diatraea saccharalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) resistance in sugarcane. In the T1 stage, ...

Sugarcane cropping is an important component of the Brazil´s economy. As the main feedstock used to produce ethanol, the area occupied with this crop has meaningfully increased in the last years and continues to expand in order to attend to the national and international demand o...

Sugarcane crop grows under different weather condition, what affects directly the crop productivity. From this variation during its cicle, in order to plan, the prediction of the crop response to different inducements is needed. Productivity predicting models and quality of row m...
