Increasing biodiversity is an important issue in more secure and sustainable agriculture.
Diversified systems are more resilient to climate change, environmental stresses and …

Residues of cover crop grasses release nitrogen (N) to subsequent crops, which can
contribute to sustainable agricultural management and prevent increases in N-loss-related …

Brazil is one of the largest soybean producer of the world and the Cerrado biome has played
a pivotal role in this expansion. Because of the economic and agronomic challenges …

Forage grasses used in crop** no-till systems in tropical regions alter soil chemical
properties, but their long-term impact on soil microbial processes of the nitrogen (N) cycle …

Inter-crop** between annual crops with tropical forages through integration crop-livestock
systems (ICL) is considered a sustainable option to increase crop diversity and soybean …

No-tillage (NT) is an alternative technique adopted in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
growing areas to reduce soil loss. However, it may affect the development of storage roots …

Among the plant nutrients, potassium (K) plays a fundamental role in plant physiology and
the soil-plant dynamics of various nutrients. Careful rate recommendations for K are needed …

The corn biomass and nutrient dynamics may be altered when it is intercropped with
Brachiaria (syn. Urochloa spp.). The present study aimed to investigate the dynamics of …

Among integrated crop–livestock systems, forage succession is an advantageous strategy
for the use of pasture to feed cattle in periods of low rainfall, as well as for the generation of …

Soil cover biomass in integrated systems can improve agronomic characteristics and impact
in soybean productivity. Thus, the objective is to evaluate the desiccation efficiency, biomass …
