This article aims to address the use of technology in agribusiness, which has brought new management possibilities, as well as precision agriculture. Management systems are responsible for recording, measuring, managing, and analyzing geographically referenced information or data.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the salinity of irrigation water on the growth, productivity and land-use efficiency in mono- and intercropping systems, using maize and cowpea plants. The experiment was carried out in a randomized-block design in split plots. The plots consisted of the crop year (2012 and 2013), the irrigation water salinity treatments (0.9, 2.5 and 5.0 dS m-1) made up the sub-plots, and the sub-sub-plots included the cropping system tested (cowpea, maize, and maize intercropped with cowpea).
O impacto que o câncer causa na família atinge também diretamente o cuidador, e o acolhimento de forma humanizada deve envolver a família, sendo um fator primordial no sucesso para a assistência de qualidade. Diante disso, questiona-se, o que a literatura aborda sobre a percepção do paciente oncológico diante do acolhimento de enfermagem? O objetivodesse estudo é conhecer a satisfação do paciente oncológico acerca do acolhimento de enfermagem, conforme a literatura. Trata-se de um estudo de cunho bibliográfico, com enfoque na revisão sistemática de literatura.

Methodology: exploratory, descriptive and quantitative study whose population was composed of women (n = 20) under hormonal treatment.
The research aims to understand the concepts in the literature about smart cities and sustainable cities. The study provides a comprehensive overview of the concepts that characterize smart and sustainable cities today. For this study, 32 scientific articles related to the concepts and practices of smart cities were analyzed.
One of the sources that contribute to food shortage is poor productivity levels. This study examines the impact of employing irrigation on grain maize productivity using 350 sample farm households in Ethiopia. Propensity score matching technique was employed since it is one of the most common and increasingly utilized standard methods for evaluating impacts using observational data. And the study found that irrigators enjoy a positive and significantly higher productivity, on the average from 42-45% higher, than their counterparts, non-users.
Several circumstances may involve the development of microcephaly in the context of Zika infection. Mutations and the immune response caused by the virus may be part of the theoretical direction in the context. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between immune response or zika mutation and the development of microcephaly. A systematic review was conducted with meta-analysis on immunology and zika mutations in the development of microcephaly. A literature search was conducted on PubMed e Scopus online databases, with a search period for the past 5 years.
Copolymers of trimethylene carbonate (TMC) and L-lactide (LA) with distinct compositions were prepared in solution employing [Mg(OEt)2]2∙[Ti(OBu)4] as initiator. Our results showed that the reactions in solution are considerably slower compared with the same copolymerizations carried out in bulk, however the copolymer ratios observed by NMR tracks the feed ratio excellently when the reactions were performed in toluene at 90o C.
Introdução: O desenvolvimento infantil é reconhecido como um sistema dinâmico influenciado por vários fatores. Objetivo: Verificar o desenvolvimento global, o estado nutricional e a relação entre ambos. Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo amostral em dez centros de Educação Infantil em Uberaba- MG, com 132 crianças de três a cinco anos, utilizando se da Triagem de Denver II para avaliação do desenvolvimento e aferidas medidas antropométricas e calculados o índice de massa corporal. Utilizou-se estatística descritiva e testes de associação.
Defende-se, no presente estudo, que as políticas públicas têm relevância imprescindível no sentido de ressaltar os benefícios do envelhecimento saudável para o idoso, como riqueza de conhecimentos, habilidades motoras e físicas, bem como experiências na vida cotidiana e laboral (OMS, 2020). Pensando nisso, objetiva-se, com esse manuscrito, realizar um estudo do envelhecimento saudável, tendo como foco de análise a produção imagética de super-heróis dos desenhos animados.
