| The opening of areas for agricultural exploitation in the northern region of Mato Grosso occurred intensely and without technologies for the preservation of native fruit species, and this, associated with the food habit brought by immigrants from the south and southeast regions, disfavors the knowledge and exploitation of native fruit species. and even adapted to the Mato Grosso Amazonian environment. The introduction of candidate plants for matrices of 07 fruit species with recognized commercia Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
| This proposal seeks to facilitate technological solutions for competitive cattle farming, making rational use of the environment and regional resources while preserving the flora and fauna of the Cerrado, the Amazon and the Pantanal. The cattle industry plays a significant social and economic role, generating over 6 million jobs and contributing over $ 3 billion to the country's exports. The Cerrado is currently the leading region for livestock and at this moment there is an opportunity to estab Status: Completed Start date: Sun Jul 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2007 |
| This project aims to propose viable technological alternatives for a competitive stockbreeding practice, making responsible use of the environment and regional resources and preserving the native flora and fauna of the Cerrado, Amazon and Pantanal. The beef cattle industry has an expressive social and economical role, being responsible for more than 6 million jobs and contributing with more than US$3 billion in the country's exportation activities.

| The adoption of agro-forest systems (SAFs) which are based in (agro) ecological practices has great potential for generating social, economic and environmental benefits, above all to family farmers. Thus, it was implanted, in the county of Tomé-Açu, Pará, SAFs composed by annual and perennial species, combined with Palm Oil Trees (Elaeis guineensis), in three family estates. In each one of them, the SAFs were installed after the area's preparation without the use of fires, based in the principle ... Status: Completed Start date: Sun Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2010 |
| Psyllids are small jumping insects in the superfamily Psylloidea (Hemiptera) which damage tovarious agricultural and forest crops. Some psyllids can transmit bacterial diseases to plants:the Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina Citra Kuwayama) transmits Huanglongbing disease (citrusgreening), currently considered the most serious citrus disease in Asia and America. There arean estimated 1000 psyllid species in Brazil, but approximately 90% have not yet beendescribed; as of 2012, only 73 species had Status: In progress Start date: Thu Feb 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2018 |
| Sustainability of traditional cultivation systems (slash-and-burn) depends especially on long periods of set-aside in order to reestablish the stock of the soil's nutrients and raw organic material used and/or lost during the agricultural period. Population growth and decrease in the region's secondary vegetation availability has progressively reduced the set-aside period, subsequently increasing the pressure on riparian areas and cultivated ones. The result if degradation of natural resources a Status: Completed Start date: Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2009 |
| Legal norms and market behavior demand a new posture when facing the environment of various economical factors. In the forest sector, this posture has been defined through the restructuring of the use and occupation of cultivated areas with commercial forests, promoting the environmental compliance of productive activities. This reorganization of rural areas, and areas of permanent preservation and legal reserves which were improperly occupied by forest activities, and thus opposing current legi Status: Completed Start date: Sun Nov 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2009 |
| Eucalyptus cropping has been growing in Brazil in the last few years and has become an important alternative for rural areas. With expressive participation in the country's trade balance, it is moved by the demand for paper, cellulose, timber and evergy. Since 2009, Embrapa Satellite Monitoring has carried out research to define efficient sustainability indicators from the assessment of tree and bush flora biodiversity and faunal biodiversity, in addition to proposing forest management actions.

| This research project aims to study organic sugarcane cultivation areas of the Santo Antônio Sugar Mill in Sertãozinho, São Paulo, with emphasis on mapping and characterizing the current status of the vegetation within Permanent Preservation Areas (APPs, from the acronym in Portuguese), for the implementation of an agro-ecological project. The research project should promote an increment to the faunal biodiversity and production systems in such properties, helping the dispersion of seeds along t ...
