Optimizing Phosphorus Use in Tropical Soils for Sustainable Farming
Paulo Sergio Pavinato, Patriciani Estela Cipriano Abstract In tropical soils, P stands out as one of the most limiting nutrients for crop productivity, primarily due to its scarce availability by its rapid transformation in non-labile forms. Furthermore, the application of P-based fertilizers may not yield effective results, as this nutrient may quickly combine with soil […]
Assessing the impact of El Niño–Southern Oscillation on sugarcane yield and quality in Brazil’s South-Central Region using the DSSAT-CANEGRO model
João Guilherme Silveira Pedreira, Izael Martins Fattori Jr, Murilo dos Santos Vianna & Fábio Ricardo Marin Abstract The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a major driver of interannual climate variability worldwide, and its increasing frequency and intensity pose growing challenges for global agriculture and food security. In Brazil, the world’s largest sugarcane producer, ENSO events […]
