Waste recycling is common in agriculture nowadays on different scales, depending on chain organization, available technologies, and environmental and health regulations. Just to mention two figures, in 2009 the sugarcane-ethanol chain produced 604 billion liters of vinasse and 201 million tons of bagasse and filter cake. Although the bagasse is burnt to generate energy and the vinasse is a fertilizer, many challenges remain. The objective of this project is to assess the potential to transfor ...Status: Completed Start date: Wed May 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2013 |
This project proposed to develop a field densitometer based on the use of Compton scattering and visualization algorithms as innovative methods to non-invasively and non-destructively measure density and compaction in agricultural soils in the environment under analysis. For the methodological evaluation, the results were compared with classical soil analysis techniques . Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2010 |
Computation used as a tool by scientific research has revolutionized the biological sciences, as it has done with many other fields of science, and considering the exponentially increasing amount and complexity of the scientific data being generated and needing to be efficiently handled, translated, processed and communicated, new computational resources are needed for the effective treatment of all this volume of data that makes it possible to transform it into knowledge and subsequently, as th Status: Completed Start date: Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
The project's team aims to prospect demands based on the diagnosis and characterization of the main agrarian systems in East São Paulo - especially those linked to Family Farming - towards the joint and participatory generation of knowledge, processes, innovations, methodologies and technologies, aiming at the redesign and the sustainable management of agroecosystems based on Agroecology rules. The East São Paulo region is formed by 90 cities within the Cerrados and Atlantic Rainforest biomes, w ... Status: Completed Start date: Tue May 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2018 |
