Large‐scale bioenergy demand has triggered new approaches to straw management in
Brazilian sugarcane fields. With the progressive shift from a burned to a nonburned harvest …

GHG mitigation by bioenergy crops depends on crop type, management practices, and the
input of residue carbon (C) to the soil. Perennial grasses may increase soil C compared to …

Sugarcane production relies on the application of large amounts of nitrogen (N) fertilizer.
However, application of N in excess of crop needs can lead to loss of N to the environment …

This study presents a literature review of the main advances that took place in the last 10
years in the agricultural production of sugarcane in Brazil, which can effectively result in …

Understanding the impacts of straw removal on quantity and quality of soil organic carbon
(SOC) is crucial for sustaining or improving soil functions and producing economically viable …

There is growing interest in sugarcane straw removal from the field to use as raw material for
bioenergy production. In contrast, sugarcane straw removal may have negative implications …

Sugarcane is one of the world's main carbohydrates sources. We analysed the APSIM-
Sugar (AS) and DSSAT/CANEGRO (DC) models to determine their structural differences …

The use of sugarcane straw as bioenergy feedstock has been encouraged in recent years
due to its potential to mitigate greenhouse gases emissions. Nevertheless, the …

There is a growing interest by the Brazilian sugarcane (Saccharum sp.) industry in removing
sugarcane straw from the field to use as raw material for increasing bioenergy production …

Sugarcane straw has become available in large quantities in the field due to transition from
manual to mechanical harvesting. Straw can be used as fuel for cogeneration systems of …
