Si bien las existencias ovinas en Córdoba son solo un 15% menores que las caprinas, esta producción no ha tenido igual énfasis en el desarrollo de proyectos de investigación, desarrollo y/o extensión. No obstante, las nuevas circunstancias productivas y las leyes de promoción han generado el desarrollo de emprendimientos comerciales que incluyen esta producción. Siendo una población ovina residual, en su gran mayoría está compuesta de majadas con base criolla y cruzas diversas con razas estandarizadas, frente a lo cual parecería que la problemática productiva de carne y lana tiene una seria limitante. Sin embargo, las experiencias en otros lugares del país y en otros paises confirma una buena alternativa de producción de carne de corderos pesados y lana para tapicería con cruzas y poblaciones primarias. Esto plantea la hipótesis que el desarrollo de sistemas de producción ovina basada en corderos livianos y/o pesados se complementa con la producción de lana para tapicería. El objetivo general de este proyecto es: evaluar biológica y económicamente biotipos ovinos ya criados en dos áreas de la provincia, en relación a la producción de carne y lana a través de estudios de estructuras de poblaciones y ensayos específicos, con la finalidad de conocer la posible rentabilidad en cada caso. El proyecto se va a desarrollar en dos localidades con carcacterísticas agroecológicas distintas: llanura con producción agrícola (Grupo Cambio Rural Los Pecorinos, Villa María) y pastizales de altura (Asociación de Arrendatarios de Pampa de Olaen, La Falda). Inicialmente se van a desarrollar estudios de estructura productiva en carne y lana e identificación de biotipos específicos y luego se va a desarrollar un ensayo de engorde de corderos destetados, evaluación de la producción de lana, del crecimiento y faena para evaluar calidad de canal y calidad de carne para dos categorias: livianos(2 meses edad de faena) y pesados (5 meses). Este proyecto pretende demostrar la factibilidad de producir corderos pesados en las condiciones actuales y con los biotipos existentes, cumpliementando el ingreso con la producción de lana de excelente calidada para la confección de alfombras, lo cual no deberías de ser incompatible entre sí (carne-lana).

Resumo: Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito da idade ao abate e do uso ou não de suplementação na fase de cria sobre as relações de ácidos graxos da carne de ovinos. Foram utilizados 32 cordeiros Morada Nova, machos, não castrados, abatidos aos 60, 78, 106 e 134 dias, em grupos de 8 cordeiros por abate. Na carne avaliada foram identificados sete ácidos graxos saturados, cinco ácidos graxos monoinsaturados e cinco ácidos graxos poli-insaturados. O uso da suplementação na fase de cria (com Creep feeding) não alterou as relações entre ácidos graxos saturados e insaturados, bem como o percentual de ácidos graxos desejáveis (P>0,05) presentes na carne de cordeiros. A idade ao abate interferiu positiva e linearmente na relação entre ácidos graxos monoinsaturados e insaturados, o que permite abater os cordeiros com até 134 dias sem prejuízo para as relações entre os ácidos graxos [Effect of age at slaughter and use of supplementation on the ratio of fatty acids of meat from lambs of Morada Nova race]. Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of age at slaughter and the use or not supplementation in creating phase on the relationship of fatty acids of sheep meat. 32 Morada Nova lambs were used, male, not castrated, slaughtered at 60, 78, 106 and 134 days, 8 lambs for slaughter groups. In evaluated meat were identified seven saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids and five polyunsaturated fatty acids. The use of supplementation in the creation phase (with Creep feeding) did not alter the relationship between saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, as well as the percentage of desirable fatty acids (P>0,05) in the lamb meat. The age at slaughter interfered positively and linearly in the relationship between monounsaturated and unsaturated fatty acids, which allows slaughter lambs up to 134 days without prejudice to the relationship between fatty acids

The presence of trash from the mechanical harvest of green cane on sugarcane plantations promotes changes in the agricultural management, for example, in the mechanical cultural practices of ratoon cane in-between the rows and nitrogen (N) fertilization. The goal of this study was to evaluate the performance of sugarcane in different harvest systems, associated to the mechanical cultural practices in interrows and N rates. The study was carried out on a sugarcane plantation in Sales Oliveira, São Paulo, Brazil, with the sugarcane variety SP81-3250, on soil classified as Acrudox, in a randomized block design with split-split plots and four replications. The main treatments consisted of harvest systems (harvesting green cane or burnt cane), the secondary treatment consisted of the mechanical cultural practices in the interrows and the tertiary treatments were N rates (0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 160 kg ha-1), using ammonium nitrate (33 % N) as N source. The harvest systems did not differ in sugarcane yield (tons of cane per hectare - TCH), but in burnt cane, the pol percent and total sugar recovery (TSR) were higher. This could be explained by the higher quantity of plant impurities in the harvested raw material in the system without burning, which reduces the processing quality. Mechanical cultural practices in the interrows after harvest had no effect on cane yield and sugar quality, indicating that this operation can be omitted in areas with mechanical harvesting. The application of N fertilizer at rates of 88 and 144 kg ha-1 N, respectively, increased stalk height and TCH quadratically to the highest values for these variables. For the sugar yield per hectare (in pol %), N fertilization induced a linear increase.

OBJECTIVES: To determine the risk of a Down syndrome (DS) live birth for women 45 years of age and over. METHODS: A meta-analysis of data from five published articles, 13 EUROCAT congenital anomaly population registers and two unpublished sources. RESULTS: Information was available on the number of DS live births occurring amongst 13,745 live births to women 45 years of age and over. Information was also available on DS pregnancies diagnosed prenatally that were subsequently terminated. These pregnancies were adjusted for expected fetal loss to estimate the number of live births that would have occurred in the absence of prenatal diagnoses, when a total of 471 DS live births were estimated to have occurred. The risk of a DS birth did not increase for women 45 years of age and over. The average risk was 34 per 1000 births (95% CI: 31-37). CONCLUSION: The risk of a DS live birth for women 45 years of age and over is considerably lower than has often been previously assumed. The most likely explanation is that women of this age are more likely to miscarry DS pregnancies than younger mothers.

Com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de sistemas conservacionistas de manejo do solo sobre características agronômicas de cultivares de amendoim com hábitos de crescimento contrastantes, foram instalados sete ensaios de campo; seis em Latossolo Vermelho eutroférrico (Ribeirão Preto, SP) e um em Argissolo Vermelho-Amarelo (Pindorama, SP), todos em renovação de canaviais colhidos sem queima prévia. Utilizou-se o delineamento de blocos ao acaso, com os tratamentos arranjados em esquema de parcelas subdivididas e quatro repetições. Os tratamentos principais foram os sistemas de manejo - convencional, cultivo mínimo e plantio direto - e os secundários, as cultivares IAC-Tatu ST e IAC-Caiapó. Não há diferença estatística para produção de vagens e grãos e número de estruturas reprodutivas, entre manejos conservacionistas e convencional, porém pode haver redução no estande final de plantas. Em três dos sete ensaios houve interação significativa entre cultivar e sistema de manejo. A cultivar IAC-Caiapó é menos responsiva às diferenças de manejo do solo. O plantio direto pode proporcionar aumento de 6,5 a 9% no índice de rendimento de grãos e apresentar maior conteúdo de água no solo em período de seca.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the impacts of spittlebug (Mahanarva fimbriolata) attack on sugarcane quality and ethanol production. Technological and microbiological parameters of juice and fermentation process were evaluated in ten fermentation cycles and two harvest seasons. Treatments consisted of different spittlebug stalk damage levels: control, with 100% of apparently healthy stalks; medium, with 15% of damaged or dry stalks (DDS); high, with 30% of DDS; and very high, with 60% of DDS. Spittlebug attack caused significant losses in cane quality, reducing total soluble solids, sucrose content, total reducing sugars, and pH, and increasing total phenolic compounds, and total and volatile juice acidity. The fermentation process was also significantly affected, resulting in lower ethanol content in wine. There was an increase in acetaldehyde concentration in the distillate. The spittlebug attack caused negative impacts on sugarcane quality and fermentation process, and these impacts are stronger in late season harvests.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos da inoculação de bactérias promotoras de crescimento sobre a formação de mudas pré-brotadas de cana-de-açúcar, oriundas de gemas individualizadas, e quantificar o crescimento inicial dessas mudas, em associação à aplicação de nitrogênio, em solo de baixa fertilidade. Foram conduzidos dois experimentos: um em casa de vegetação, com duração de 50 dias, e o outro, em vasos no campo, com duração de 180 dias. Em ambos os experimentos, utilizou-se o delineamento de blocos ao acaso, em arranjo fatorial 2x3, no primeiro experimento - com ou sem inoculante, e com três quantidades de reserva nas gemas -, e 2x2x4, no segundo - com ou sem inoculante, com ou sem nitrogênio, avaliados em quatro épocas: aos 45, 90, 135 e 180 dias. O inoculante produziu efeito na fase inicial de crescimento das mudas pré-brotadas, com aumento na velocidade de brotação e no acúmulo da matéria seca de raízes e da parte aérea, independentemente da quantidade de reserva da gema. No segundo experimento, o inoculante promoveu ganhos no crescimento inicial da parte aérea e do sistema radicular, até os 180 dias após o transplantio, com aumento em altura, perfilhamento, diâmetro do colmo, produção da matéria seca de colmos e de palha e do comprimento radicular, independentemente da aplicação de nitrogênio. O inoculante tem efeito fisiológico positivo sobre o crescimento das plantas.

Este trabalho foi conduzido em Latossolo Vermelho distrófico típico, sob cultivo de cana crua, com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito prolongado de sistemas de preparo do solo, com e sem cultivo da soqueira, e épocas de amostragem sobre algumas propriedades físicas do solo. O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos ao acaso, em esquema de parcelas subsubdivididas, sendo os tratamentos principais quatro sistemas de preparo do solo: (i) controle da soqueira com duas gradagens, subsolagem e mais uma gradagem de nivelamento; (ii) controle da soqueira com herbicida e uma subsolagem; (iii) controle da soqueira com herbicida; (iv) controle da soqueira com herbicida, aração com arado de aivecas e uma gradagem de nivelamento. Os tratamentos secundários foram: com cultivo e sem cultivo da soqueira. Os tratamentos ternários foram as épocas de avaliação: dois dias antes e após a quarta colheita da cultura. A porosidade total, macroporosidade, microporosidade e densidade do solo foram avaliadas, além do perfilhamento e da produtividade da cultura. Após quatro sucessivas colheitas de cana crua, houve redução da macroporosidade com aumento da microporosidade nas camadas abaixo de 10 cm e aumento da densidade do solo entre 20 e 50 cm. A densidade do solo não foi alterada de modo consistente em função de todos os tratamentos testados. O cultivo da soqueira favoreceu o aumento da macroporosidade com decréscimo na microporosidade, e o efeito inverso foi observado após a colheita. Os sistemas de preparo do solo e de cultivo da soqueira não afetaram o perfilhamento e a produtividade da cultura.

The Rhodotorularubra biomass and carotenoids production was evaluated in sugarcane juice, molasses, and syrup based media. The effects of media supplementation with urea- nitrogen or the commercial nutrient called Nitrofos KL was also verified. The experimental design used was a completely randomized factorial with 3 substrates (juice, molasses, and syrup) and three supplementations (control, urea, and Nitrofos KL). The results were submitted to variance analysis and Tukey test at 5% probability. The highest production of yeast dry mass was obtained with molasses media supplemented with urea or Nitrofos KL (15.09 and 14.87 g/L respectively). The intracellular carotenoid production was high in the media without supplementation (0.329 mg/g). The best growth medium for the volumetric production was molasses (2.74 mg/L), while those supplemented with urea and Nitrofos KL produced 2.55 and 2.32 mg/L, respectively. The major carotenoids produced were torulene, torularhodin, and β-carotene. The lowest carbohydrate consumption was observed in the sugarcane juice medium without supplementation, while the highest consumption was observed in the urea based supplementation medium.

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.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of natural biocides, brown and green propolis, for the control of bacterial contamination in the production of sugarcane spirit. The treatments consisted of brown and green propolis extracts, ampicillin, and a control and were assessed at the beginning and end of harvest season in ten fermentation cycles. In the microbiological analyses, the lactic acid bacteria were quantified in the inoculum before and after the treatment with biocides, and the viability of yeast cells during fermentation was evaluated. The levels of acids, glycerol, total residual reducing sugars, and ethanol were analyzed for the wine resulting from each fermentation cycle. A reduction in the number of bacterial contaminants in the inoculum in the treatments with the natural biocides was observed, but it did not affect the viability of yeast cells. The control of the contaminants led to the production of higher levels of ethanol and reduced acidity in the wine produced. The results of the use of brown and green propolis to control the growth microorganisms in the fermentation of sugarcane spirit can be of great importance for using alternative strategies to synthetic antibacterials in fermentation processes including other distilled beverage or spirits.

The member countries of the World Health Organization (WHO) have recently endorsed its global strategy on diet, physical activity and health. The strategy emphasises the need to limit the consumption of saturated fats and trans-fatty acids, salt and sugars, and to increase consumption of fruits and vegetables in order to combat the growing burden of non-communicable diseases. This paper attempts a broad quantitative assessment of the consumption impacts of these norms in OECD countries using a mathematical programming approach. We find that adherence to the WHO norms would involve a significant decrease in the consumption of vegetable oils (30%), dairy products (28%), sugar (24%), animal fats (30%) and meat (pig meat, 13.5%, mutton and goat 14.5%) and a significant increase in the human consumption of cereals (31%), fruits (25%) and vegetables (21%).
