Purpose Sugarcane vinasse is generated in large amounts and can be utilized to improve soil attributes, especially in areas degraded by burns. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efects of sugarcane vinasse on physico-chemical attributes of a Cambisol managed via annual burns. Methods Soil samples were collected from an annually burned […]
Purpose This study aimed to compare the hydroponic strawberry production using the conventional nutrient solution and treated domestic sewage, seeking fertilizer savings and identifying its nutritional status and physicochemical and microbiological attributes of fruits. Method The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse under the nutrient film technique (NTF) hydroponic system, with three treatments: DW […]
Purpose The reuse of treated wastewater (TWW) in agriculture may affect the growth of plants. The goal of this study is to investigate the potential use of TWW in irrigating Lily in presence of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) in a closed soilless system. Method In the first experiment, plants were irrigated with a mixture of […]
Purpose Poultry litter (PL) and basalt rock powder (BRP) are raw materials highly produced in some Brazilian regions. The association of these products can generate greater added value for the agribusiness chain and be a sustainable source of fertilizer. Method The experiment consisted of an incubation trial over time for chemical characterization of the materials. […]
Purpose: Solid organic waste is a major environmental issue in various parts of the world. Proper management techniques for disposing of such wastes can reduce health issues as well as contamination of the environment. Modern scientific techniques in conjugation with traditional practices can manage biowaste in an efficient, economical, and sustainable manner. This present review […]
Purpose: In this study, we aim to investigate the suitability of five samples of compost extracted at various concentrations by testing for their phytotoxic response on Lactuca sativa L. We analyze relevant parameters with regards to the quality of the compost. By doing this, we hope to contribute to the attainability of clean, high-value organic […]
