Pesca artesanal no Parque Nacional do Cabo Orange: contextos de conflito socioambiental e estratégias de manejo alternativo

Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal compreender e descrever como pescadores artesanais, que tradicionalmente exploram as áreas do entorno e dentro de uma unidade de conservação, mais especificamente o Parque Nacional do Cabo Orange localizado no município do Oiapoque, costa do Amapá, têm se ordenado politicamente e ambientalmente no que se refere à cenários de conflito socioambiental em águas costeiras - por territórios de pesca. Para tanto, o trabalho utiliza uma metodologia qualitativa e privilegia os agentes envolvidos no cenário da pesca no município de Oiapoque, estes são: pescadores paraenses, ICMBio, pescadores amapaenses. Os resultados da pesquisa demonstram que boa parte dos pescadores artesanais associados à Colônia de Pescadores do Oiapoque são remanescentes de uma comunidade pesqueira que era localizada no interior do Parque, chamada Vila de Taperebá. Os Parques Nacionais são um modelo de unidade de conservação de proteção integral à natureza, não permitindo a presença humana ou exploração de seus recursos. Consequentemente, essa população foi expropriada e a partir das entrevistas realizadas foi possível perceber como os pescadores artesanais do Oiapoque, juntamente com a Colônia de Pescadores do Oiapoque, traçaram e propõem um manejo e uma medida compensatória pela expropriação que ocorreu a partir da criação do referido Parque.

Use of Moringa oleífera Lamarck leaf extract as sugarcane juice clarifier: effects on clarifed juice and sugar

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Moringa oleifera Lam. leaf extract on the sedimentation of impurities in the treatment of sugarcane juice and the effects on sugar quality and on the clarified juice. The experimental design used was a 4x2 factorial arrangement with four replications. The main treatments performed included the extracted original sugarcane juice, the synthetic polyelectrolyte (Flomex 9076), the leaf extract, and a control. The secondary treatments consisted of the sugarcane varieties RB92579 and RB867515. The clarification process used was simple defecation, in which the flocculating agents and the juice, limed and heated, were poured simultaneously into a decanter. The microbiological and chemico-technological characteristics of the extracted and clarified juices were evaluated. The clarified juice was concentrated up to 60° Brix (syrup) and subjected to boiling in a pilot pan using seeds to perform the graining: The sugar was recovered by centrifugation and analyzed for microbiological and chemico-technological characteristics. It was concluded that the use of the Moringa oleifera Lam. leaves extract resulted in a better quality of clarified juice and sugar.

Nutritional balance and yield for green manure orange trees

Intercropping could efficiently prevent soil nutrient losses caused by extensive agriculture. The present study aimed to assess the effect of green manure on the nutritional status of orange trees cultivar 'Pera' (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck). The plants were grafted on 'Cravo' lime trees and were then planted in a 7x4m space. Four different treatments corresponding to the evaluated green manures were employed: jack bean (JB) (Canavalia ensiformis DC), lablab (LL) (Dolichos lablab L.), pigeon pea (PP) (Cajanus cajan L. Millsp), and Brachiaria (BQ) (Brachiaria brizantha Hochst ex A. Rich. Stapf) as control. The experimental design was in randomized blocks, in split-plot time, with six replicates, with four treatments (green manures) and two plants per evaluation. The nutritional status was assessed by using the DRIS method (Diagnosis and Recommendation Integrated System); the yield and the macro and micronutrient levels contained in green manures and in the control was also determined. The nutritional diagnosis indicated that, in the two years of experiment, plants treated with green manure showed better nutritional balance index compared to Brachiaria. This suggests that, over time, green manure can lead to better nutritional balance. Pigeon pea treatment showed the highest yields, compared to control, in the two evaluated crop cycles (2004/05 and 2005/06).

Efeitos da deriva de clomazone, aplicado isoladamente ou em mistura com ametryn, sobre características produtivas de laranjeira 'Hamlin'

This experiment aimed to evaluate the effect of increasing clomazone (sprayed alone or in mixture with ametryn) drift simulation on quantitative and qualitative aspects of orange production when applied at two developmental plant stages: flowering and initial fruit development (fruits 2 cm diameter or smaller). Increasing drifts of clomazone, in two formulations, and clomazone in mixtures with ametryn were tested. Fruit morphological features, fruit color, flower and fruit abortion and leaf chlorophyll content were evaluated. Simulated drift similar to the recommended dose of clomazone and clomazone plus ametryn caused fruit abortion in citrus at the stage of fruits 2 cm diameter or smaller. Lower drift doses did not result in fruit abortion. Fruit diameter reduction was observed with drift off above 25% of clomazone alone recommended rate and 50% when in mixture with ametryn or in microcapsule formulation. Clomazone drift at 50% of the recommended rate (alone or in mixture with ametryn ) caused clorotic and necrotic spots in the fruit peel. Drift did not affect juice quality in any of the treatments tested.

Evaluation of the acidity in the juice from different parts of the stem of sugarcane, cycle 2010/2011

The acidity levels present in the juice of sugarcane can cause problems in its processing. This study aimed to compare the values of total, volatile and fixed acidity in the juice of the stem nodes and internodes of sugarcane. The experimental design was a completely randomized, 3x2 factorial arrangement with four replications, using three varieties of sugarcane (IAC91-1099; ISC95 and CTC7-5000) divided into node and internode. The stems were collected and separated in node and internode. After extraction of juice from each part, total, volatile and fix acidities were determined. The results were subjected to variance analysis the by F test and compared by the Tukey test at 5% probability. The cultivar CTC7 had the lowest levels of total and fixed acidity. Cultivar IAC91-1099 showed high levels of fixed acidity on both parts of the stem, and high volatile acidity at the node. In the stem, the values of volatile acidity showed no definite pattern between cultivars. The node has, in general, a higher fixed acidity, but some cultivars have shown opposite results.

Um estudo sobre as operações unitárias de agitação, troca de calor em tanques e mistura de pós

De todas as operações, a agitação de fluidos, a troca de calor em tanques e a mistura de pós são, sem dúvida, as mais usuais, principalmente, na indústria de alimentos. Embora exigindo um estudo em separado, é comum estas operações unitárias estarem presentes, em instantes diferentes, no mesmo processo de fabricação. O propósito deste trabalho é enfatizar procedimentos de projeto para problemas práticos nas indústrias de processos envolvendo estas três operações. O modelo matemático proposto para a agitação de fluidos foi aplicado na substituição das tradicionais âncoras por impelidores de pás retas e inclinadas no processamento do suco concentrado de laranja. Observou-se que o tempo de permanência do suco no tanque de resfriamento caiu de quarenta para cinco minutos em decorrência da maior ação de mistura provocada pelas pás retas. O modelo proposto acompanha bem as exigências de potências requeridas pelo suco na medida em que é resfriado...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

DRIS Norms for Pera Orange

Chemical analysis of leaves is an effective tool for detecting nutritional imbalances and providing data for fertilizer recommendations. Therefore, it is extremely important to establish criteria for interpreting these results. The DRIS (Diagnosis and Recommendation Integrated System) method is an alternative to the interpretation of results of leaf analysis as it allows the calculation of indexes for each nutrient, using its relations with others and comparing them with a reference population. Thus, we aimed to establish preliminary DRIS norms, by both Beaufils's and Jones's methods, and to derive critical levels and nutrient sufficiency ranges in the leaf tissue for Pera orange, by studying a commercial crop in the growing conditions of the Sao Paulo state. The methods (Beaufils and Jones) differed in the limiting nutrients in the Pera orange orchard. The use of regional norms must be prioritized because of differences between the management methods applied. In the methods used, the nutrients that had a greater number of concordant cases in decreasing order: Mn > Mg > B > N > Cu > Fe > Zn > K > P > Ca. Amplitudes related to the DRIS methods used were narrower than the conventional literature.
