The savannas of eastern Colombia located in the Orinoco river basin represent 18% of the Latin American neotropical savannas, and those areas that are tillable and closer to markets are subject to considerable anthropic pressure in the quest for intensification. Historically, and even today, beef...
The new Latin America Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Network (LAMNET) is a regional subsidiary of The Climate Food and Farming Research Network (CLIFF), an international research network that helps to build the capacity of young researchers working on climate change mitigation in smallholder farming. ...
As global demand for livestock products (such as meat, milk, and eggs) is expected to double by 2050, necessary increases to future production must be reconciled with negative environmental impacts that livestock cause. This paper describes the LivestockPlus concept and demonstrates how the sowin...
Nitrification, a key process in the global nitrogen cycle that generates nitrate through microbial activity, may enhance losses of fertilizer nitrogen by leaching and denitrification. Certain plants can suppress soil-nitrification by releasing inhibitors from roots, a phenomenon termed biological...
Accelerated soil-nitrifier activity and rapid nitrification are the cause of declining nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) and enhanced nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from farming. Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) is the ability of certain plant roots to suppress soil-nitrifier activity through...
Low phosphorus (P) supply is a major limitation to pasture establishment and production in highly weathered acid soils. Previous research showed that the forage legume, Arachis pintoi, was more efficient in acquiring P from infertile acid soils than the forage grass, Brachiaria dictyoneura. The m...
