“…Brazilian agribusiness has been very successful, both qualitative and quantitatively, contributing to generate jobs and higher incomes. The average performance of agribusiness has surpassed that of the industrial sector, becoming very important in the economy, particularly for its ability to boost other sectors (Santos, Tavares, Vasconcelos, & Afonso, 2012).…”

RESUMO Objetivo: a urbanização e migração para os grandes centros tem provocado mudanças no comportamento dos consumidores de carnes, não somente no que se refere a escolha do produto, mas também, ao processo de compra. Neste sentido, fatores como proximidade, disponibilidade do produto, e preço são relacionados como fatores que definem compras. Na tentativa de ampliar o entendimento sobre o que os consumidores consideram importante, este trabalho objetiva analisar os principais fatores associados ao consumo das carnes bovina, suína e de frango no Distrito Federal, Brasil. Métodos: a pesquisa foi realizada em três redes distintas de hipermercados. Realizou-se uma avaliação socioeconômica dos entrevistados, seguida da aplicação de um Survey, através de sentenças afirmativas estruturadas, categorizadas em dimensões sociocultural, econômica, saúde/alimento e ambiente. As sentenças foram avaliadas através da Escala Likert de sete pontos. Os dados socioeconômicos dos entrevistados foram analisados por testes de Qui-quadrado e as respostas obtidas por meio da Escala Likert foram transformados em Mean Item Score (MIS). Resultados e Conclusões: os resultados indicaram que o controle de qualidade de exposição das carnes nos supermercados e a praticidade de encontrar o mesmo tipo de carne em vários locais são os principais influenciadores de tomada de decisão de compra pelos consumidores.

“…Within this group of fungi are those referred to as Arbusculars Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF). The plant provides to AMF the sugars (hexoses) (Read and Perez-Moreno, 2003) and in return the AMF are very vital for the absorption of phosphorus (P) by the plant, mainly in tropical areas where the P-assimilable is often limiting (Matos et al, 1999). The AMF facilitate feeding of the plant mineral elements (Fortin et al, 2008) and water (Grümberg et al, 2010).…”

The objective of our study was to evaluate the promoted effects of three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on maize growth and yield on ferruginous soil in center of Benin. The maize variety used was EVDT 97 STR C1. The maize seeds were inoculated with each of three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Glomus intraradices, Funneliformis mosseae and Rhizophagus cubens) combined with or not to mineral fertilizer dose recommended (50% of NPK). The experimental device was a completely randomized random block of nine treatments with four repetitions. The data collected were related to growth (height, diameter and leaf area), yield (biomass and grain yield), mycorrhization (frequency, intensity and number of spores) and NPK content. The maximum height, best seeds yield and larger leaf surface are obtained with maize plants treated with R. intraradices combined with 50% of NPK respectively surpassing of 17.44%, 38.14%, 45.99% the values obtained with the controls plants. G. cubens combined with 50% of NPK was induced an increase of diameter (6.50%), dry aerial biomass (32.86%) and dry ground biomass (94.73%) compared to the control. G. cubens only has led to the best frequency (41.25%), intensity of mycorrhization (6.07%) and a high number of spore (1.81 spores/g soil). These results show the potential of these arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve the maize productivity on ferruginous soil in center of Benin.Contribution/Originality: The paper's primary contribution is finding that mycorrhizal inoculation increase maize productivity by reducing the use of mineral fertilizer.

“…The Pequi tree (Caryocar brasiliense Cambess., Caryocaraceae) (Medeiros and Amorim, 2015) has great economic and subsistence values for many communities living in the Cerrado (Araujo, 1995;Vieira et al, 2006;Sano et al, 2008;Afonso and Ângelo, 2009;Assunção, 2012. Pequi fruits can be consumed fresh or as jams, jellies, liqueurs, creams and oils (Germano et al, 2007;Carvalho, 2008) and their leaves are also used in folk medicine for treating respiratory diseases (Rodrigues and Carvalho, 2001;Germano et al, 2007;Monteles and Pinheiro, 2007) or manufacturing cosmetics products (Oliveira et al, 2008;Pianovski et al, 2008).…”

Traditional knowledge and uses of the Caryocar brasiliense Cambess. (Pequi) by “quilombolas” of Minas Gerais, Brazil: subsidies for sustainable management

Local knowledge of biodiversity has been applied in support of research focused on utilizing and management of natural resources and promotion of conservation. Among these resources, Pequi (Caryocar brasiliense Cambess.) is important as a source of income and food for communities living in the Cerrado biome. In Pontinha, a "quilombola" community, which is located in the central region of State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, an ethnoecological study about Pequi was conducted to support initiatives for generating income for this community. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and crossing. The most relevant uses of Pequi were family food (97%), soap production (67%), oil production (37%), medical treatments (17%), and trade (3%). Bees were the floral visitors with the highest Salience Index (S=0.639). Among frugivores that feed on unfallen fruits, birds showed a higher Salience (S=0.359) and among frugivores who use fallen fruits insects were the most important (S=0.574). Borers (folivorous caterpillars) that attack trunks and roots were the most common pests cited. According to the respondents, young individuals of Pequi are the most affected by fire due to their smaller size and thinner bark. Recognition of the cultural and ecological importance of Pequi has mobilized the community, which has shown interest in incorporating this species as an alternative source of income.Keywords: Cerrado, traditional communities, ethnoecology, income.
