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 Cerrado is currently the most important reg

Epidemics of Diseases whose Pathogens are Transmitted by Insects (EDTIs) are frequent and impactful in the areas of human, animal and plant health. Due to its complexity, understanding the dynamics of EDTIs requires the accumulation of epidemiological data from monitoring networks and the use of models that establish the chain of relations between their components and calculate, under environmental oscillations, the rate and progress of the biological processes. This project proposes to develop

Amazonia’s traditional knowledge, especially the indigenous one, is known to treat diseases with the use of medicinal plants. This is the knowledge used to base sequential and controlled studies which aim to characterize clinical and toxic effects of the most commonly used phytotherapeutic plants by the general population. /nThis project proposes to evaluate and characterize, in a partnership between Oriental Amazon Embrapa and Pará’s State University and (Pará’s) Center of Superior Studies, the ...

Studies on risk factors in dairy herds and their economic impact are available in countries with developed dairy production. This information is used to direct and prioritize procedures that improve herd health and avoid problems such as high total bacterial count and presence of antimicrobial residues in milk. In countries with developed dairy farming most herds are comprised of high-producing animals of specialized breeds and raised in total or partial confinement systems. In Brazil, there is

Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus) is often associated with cases of bovine mastitis, a common disease in dairy herds that causes economic losses to the farmer and industry. In addition, S. aureus is often associated with outbreaks of food poisoning, as some strains can produce staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs). SEs are a major cause of gastroenteritis resulting from the consumption of contaminated foods, including milk and dairy products. Although S. aureus is dest ...
