ABSTRACT Two experimental tests were carried out to evaluate the inclusion of a biofermented semi-arid plant mix in diets piglets initial weaning phase. In first trial, nutritional value and digestibility nutrients digestible metabolizable energy values bio-fermented plants evaluated. To do so, eight with an average weight 15.2 ± 2.7 kg used, housed metabolic cages, using total collection feces...

O Brasil se destaca como um dos principais produtores mundiais de mel. A legislação brasileira estabelece parâmetros qualidade e análises físico-químicas para avaliar controlar a do mel comercializado. Essas também são importantes detectar adulterações que podem causar diversos efeitos negativos aos consumidores. objetivo deste estudo foi comparar físico-química amostras certificadas não-certif...

Microplastics (MP) have been retrieved from settled dusts and rainfall collected monthly over a period of year daily an additional ten days in the city Shiraz at elevated remote site (Mount Derak) Iran. Total deposition ranged about 1000 to 3500 MP m?2 200 600 Mount Derak, with greater taking place during dry months (June November) than when precipitation events occurred. Overall, was dominated...

Hypotheses about the origin of vegetation pattern formation in semi-arid areas around the world almost all include a common feature of semi-arid areas: the presence of a positive feedback between plant density and water infiltration. We investigate whether this positive feedback and the spatial redistribution of runoff water are sufficient to explain vegetation pattern formation. For this purpo...

Analysis of cassava cultivars and interspecific hybrids leaves revealed a protein percentage ranges from 21% to 32%. Polyploid types did not show significant increase. Varieties with low HCN content can be selected to enrich flour of cassava and other grain crops. Interspecific hybrids with very vigorous vegetative growth are good sources of protein. They can be used for raising...
