“…The North, Mucuri Valley, and Jequitinhonha Valley mesoregions had no presence of digesters in the pig farms (Figure 3). This absence is associated with the reduced number of intensive farms, as these regions have the predominance of large properties, commonly occupied by pastures, the monoculture of eucalyptus, or bananas (Dayrell et al, 2017). The volumetric biogas production by animal category -PV(bio) is estimated at 0.33 m 3 biogas animal −1 day −1 for dams, 0.03 m 3 biogas animal −1 day −1 for piglets, 0.28 m 3 biogas animal −1 day −1 for boars, and 0.21 m 3 biogas animal −1 day −1 for fattening (growth and finishing).…”

Pig farming stands out as an alternative for decentralized electrical energy production from the use of biogas energy. However, its use is still limited. Thus, this study aimed to estimate and map the biogas production, as well as determine the electric power originated by the use of biogas produced in covered lagoon biodigester from pig farms of different sizes in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The research was based on data provided by the Instituto Mineiro de Agropecuária (IMA). Three forms of electric power were estimated, as follows: (i) total, (ii) current, and (iii) installed. They were estimated from the volume of manure generated at each development stage of the animals. The total electric power corresponded to 31 MW, while the current electric power was equal to 20 MW. The installed electric power was still low and corresponded to 35.4% of the current electric power. The results showed that 55% of the current electric power was concentrated in only two mesoregions (Triângulo Mineiro/Alto Paranaíba and Zona da Mata). Therefore, the use of biogas contributed to providing energy self-sufficiency in pig farms and the generation of decentralized electrical energy.

Agricultural Heritage: Contrasting National and International Programs in Brazil and Italy

Agricultural systems comprise an interdisciplinary field that studies the complex dimensions of agriculture. They should not be characterized only by their agricultural value, as they are part of several social, cultural, geological, and historical domains. We carried out quantitative and qualitative research to present and compare the current state of agricultural heritage programs and their development in Brazil and Italy, contrasting with the Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). To this end, the history and the extension of these programs and sites were recovered. Moreover, the agricultural landscape diversity, the development of the regions, research and outreach, along with the communities, entities and government bodies involved were identified. Through a combination and quality of technical assessment and communities’ description, the analyzed agricultural heritage programs prove to be an endless source of useful information to the definition of policies aimed at rural areas, in addition to serving as a monitoring tool for many issues regarding biocultural diversity in landscape. Moreover, it shows where there is room for improvement while the countries are committed to engaging in national policies and entities on the promotion of agricultural heritage programs as major steps for investing in the “greening” of agricultural policies at different levels.

Este estudo analisou os impactos da Pandemia da COVID19 sobre os espaços de feiras livres do município de Porteirinha-MG tendo em vista que esses mercados locais tiveram suas atividades suspensas por períodos prolongados por gestores municipais a fim de conter o vírus. Esse quadro é agravado dramaticamente pelo desmonte das políticas de apoio à agricultura familiar intensificado na gestão Bolsonaro e, mais ainda, pelo o negacionismo que imperou no governo, de inação na coordenação de medidas de enfrentamento da pandemia. As informações tratadas neste artigo é resultado de um denso trabalho de campo realizado entre os anos de 2019 e 2023, por meio da observação direta aos espaços de feiras, entrevistas com consumidores, famílias agricultoras feirantes, além de diálogos com gestores públicos e de organizações da sociedade civil buscando compreender de que maneira a pandemia afetou o dia a dia das/os agricultoras/es que tinham nos espaços de feiras livres sua principal fonte de renda. O estudo evidencia que o negacionismo do governo federal em relação à pandemia da COVID19 contribuiu para uma desorientação dos gestores locais, a exemplo do caso de Porteirinha, que se viram sozinhos na tomada de decisões com vistas à segurança sanitária, dentre elas, aquelas que afetaram negativamente o funcionamento das feiras livres. Que passaram a amargar as consequências da suspensão prolongada de suas atividades, como: o baixo número de frequentadores e a formação de novos hábitos de consumo na população.
