The Project aims to search for ingredients that replace or, at least, reduce the amount of fish meal used in the tambaqui ration produced in captivity. In this project, the feasibility of using fish residues (in the production of silage) and vegetable residues (buriti, cassava and pineapple) in the manufacture of feeds will be evaluated through the health condition and zootechnical parameters and performance of tambaquis (Colossoma macropomum). The results obtained may make it possible to red ...Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
| The sustainability of Brazilian citrus is compromised by risk factors identified by the Citrus Technical Team of Embrapa Cassava and Fruits, according to their strategic action plan, 2017-2021. Two problems were more relevant: 1. Advance of huanglongbing (HLB, ex-greening) in the country, the most severe phytosanitary challenge of the world's citrus industry (BOVÉ, 2014), and 2. Harmful effects of climate change, which have intensified extreme drought events (PACHAURI et al., 2014). In addition ... Status: Completed Start date: Mon Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
| Food education represents a factor of great importance to change malnutrition conditions, especially with regard to children, for a better quality of life based on the supply of accessible, low-cost foods with higher nutritional value. In view of such need, family farming represents a great potential to revert the malnutrition scenario, and the Food Biofortification project, led by Embrapa Food Agroindustry, is an alternative to offer technologies with nutritional added value aimed at family far Status: Completed Start date: Fri Jun 22 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2012 |
