The demand for biofuels in the world is growing and some crops have presented great potential for producing raw material for biodiesel production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of the use of sewage sludge associated with ecogypsum for crambe cultivation. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse and the sludge was applied in the non-composted and composted form.

The objective was to produce meat rustic chicken, to develop poultry farm with technical and economic viability in a semi-confined system, promoting work, production and income. The farm was planned with four areas (A, B, C and D). Family members were instructed on how to develop the activity. 100 chickens were raised each month.Data collection was done weekly, by weighing the batch. All batches showed good growth performance, which promoted satisfactory income from the sale of slaughtered poultry, with a net revenue forecast of R$ 899.18 each month.

Concern about the quality of the soil and quantification of changes in its attributes is of great importance for the monitoring of soil productivity in order to improve the management of the sustainability of agricultural systems. Soil quality is the capacity in this act positively in the regulation of energy flow in a particular ecosystem, whether natural or agricultural. Thus, the study aimed to assess the dynamics of soil chemical properties in four different land use systems in two sampling periods, dry and rainy in the municipality of Santa Bárbara do Pará, Brazil.

The aim of the present work was detection and identification of potato cyst nematodes (PCN) in two geographically distinct regions of Georgia – Samtskhe-Javakheti and Samegrelo – Zemo Svaneti. For this, 11 villages in Samtskhe-Javakheti and 9 villages in Samegrelo-ZemoSvaneti were studied.

A study was conducted on nutritional composition of uncommon green leafy vegetables. Seven commonly grown but uncommonly consumed green leafy vegetables were selected. Fresh and dehydrated form of green leafy vegetables and developed products were also analyzed for proximate composition, minerals and vitamin content. On the basis of high mineral content of cauliflower greens, five products each were developed utilizing fresh and dehydrated cauliflower greens leaves.

The breeding and cattle fattening is determined by providing quality food for their nutrition. The soybean is highly protein concentrated forage, and as such it is very important breeding culture for the production of animal feeds. Soy, more precisely its root, contains the ability to adopt atmospheric nitrogen. During its vegetation it can enrich the soil with nitrogen from 40 to 60 kg / ha. In addition to this, it is able to shift and activate foods from hardly soluble forms to easier ones, and to improve the structure of soil and fertility.

Fruits and vegetables are factors that promote microorganisms that can associated with a food infection and, consequently, to transmitted diseases for food. There are numerous causes for the presence of high load microbial in this type of product, among which are the cultivation techniques, storage, transportation and distribution for consumption. Handling and preparation and vegetables for human consumption are crucial to reducing microbial in these types of products and consequently reduce the incidence of Foodborne diseases.

The process of systematization of care in nutrition assumes as a premise, guiding the conduct of the nutritionist prioritizing the attention to the patient according to clinical condition of integral way in its different dimensions. In addition, it provides a technological reorganization that enables a new way of thinking and making health differently.

The aim of this work is to study the correlation between plant diversity and beetles populations in Banco National Park and Human modified areas around. Thus, Beetles and flora inventory has been made in the forest and Human modified areas. The floristic inventory required two sampling methods: roving survey method and surface survey method. For beetles capturing, yellow ground trap, yellow height trap, pitfall trap and screen trap were used. A total number of 155 plant species divided into 136 genera belonging to 50 families were inventoried.

This study aims to analyze the students' perceptions regarding the supervised internship of the Physical Education course of a private institution in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. A total of 122 students answered the questionnaire with closed questions. Frequency and percentage were used to analyze the data. He noted that the students know the importance of the supervised internship for their training, but even they do not feel confident to work in the job market.
