Nitrogen fluxes in Urochloa-based pasture soils in the Northwestern Amazon
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/148862
Abstract
Unfertilized grass monocultures with extensive grazing management dominate pastures in Colombia's Caquetá region. These practices contribute to significant nutrient losses,
particularly nitrogen (N).
Pasture’s N supply could be improved by the inclusion of legumes in pastures (Homem et al. 2021, Thomas, 1992) or grasses with capacity of biological nitrification inhibition (BNI)
(Subbarao et al., 2013).…

Abstract
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) produces edible roots, a major carbohydrate source feeding more than 800 million people in Africa, Latin America, Oceania and Asia. Post-harvest physiological deterioration (PPD) renders harvested cassava roots unpalatable and unmarketable. Decades of research on PPD have…

Abstract
Soil organic carbon (SOC) content is the most widely used soil health indicator, but many soil functions are also influenced by the quality of SOC. Yet, standardized SOC quality parameters that can be used in soil health assessments in addition to SOC content are still in development. Here, we investigated the relationships between various SOC parameters (…
