Brazil and France working together for a more sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture

French and Brazilian scientists discuss how to transform traditional agricultural practices into carbon-neutral agriculture Climate scientists from French and Brazilian institutions gathered on November 4, 5, and 6, 2024, at the “Luiz de Queiroz” College of Agriculture (Esalq/USP) to discuss research strategies related to carbon in agriculture. The main objective of the meeting was […]
Modeling soil organic matter changes under crop diversification strategies and climate change scenarios in the Brazilian Cerrado

Jorge Luiz Locatelli, Stephen Del Grosso, Rafael Silva Santos, Mu Hong, Ram Gurung, Catherine E. Stewart, Maurício Roberto Cherubin, Cimélio Bayer, Carlos Eduardo Pellegrino Cerri Highlights Long-term soybean-cotton succession shows soil organic carbon (SOC) depletion. Complex crop rotation with cover crops showed the highest SOC sequestration rates. Including ruzigrass in succession systems can boost C […]

Shallow soils in dryland ecosystems: Drivers of C accumulation and land management implications

C. Roberto Pinheiro Junior, Tiago Osório Ferreira, José de Souza Oliveira Filho, Hermano Melo Queiroz, Lucas Pecci Canisares, Lucas T. Greschuk, Carlos Eduardo Pellegrino Cerri, Marcos Gervasio Pereira, Gonçalo Amarante Guimarães Pereira, Maurício Roberto Cherubin Abstract Shallow soils (i.e., Lithic Entisols) cover about 20% of Brazilian drylands. Inherent soil characteristics (i.e., shallow depths) and water […]
