Modern agricultural systems in the tropics are characterized by low resource use efficiency, low productivity and demand large extensions of land. To tackle this scenario, improved pastures have enormous potential to contribute towards a sustainable livestock model, of high productivity and envir...

Soil waterlogging (flooding of the soil) is a major limitation to pasture productivity due to the slow diffusion of gases in water that reduces plant growth, as O2 availability in the root zone decreases (Cardoso et al., 2014). Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) is a process where roots ex...

A healthy agricultural soil can maintain productivity, whilst delivering essential ecosystem services. An unhealthy soil can result in erosion, compaction and reductions in above and below ground diversity, nutrient cycling efficiency, drought tolerance and yield1. Grasslands for livestock produc...

Brachiaria spp. are the most widely planted tropical forage with niches from Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin American and the Caribbean. This tropical forage grass have a mechanism known as biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) able to inhibit nitrifiers activity. On grazing systems...
