SABIIA - Sistema Aberto e Integrado de Informação em Agricultura (Sabiia)

CARDOSO, E. L.; OLIVEIRA, H. de.

A implantação de Projetos de Assentamentos Rurais nas terras não inundáveis ao redor de Corumbá e Ladário fez com que a agricultura passasse a fazer parte das atividades econômicas desses municípios. No entanto, a atividade agrícola nestas terras encontra severas limitações à obtenção de elevadas produtividades, decorrentes principalmente da deficiência de água para as plantas, determinada pelo expressivo período seco que ocorre na região. No Assentamento Taquaral, esta limitação é acentuada pela predominância de solos com textura argilosa a muito argilosa, determinando: drenagem imperfeita e pouca permeabilidade, fazendo com que o solo permaneça encharcado por muito tempo durante o período chuvoso; dificuldade de mecanização, devido a elevada plasticidade...

Alternativas para a exploração agrícola das terras do Assentamento Tamarineiro I, Corumbá - MS.

OLIVEIRA, H. de; CARDOSO, E. L..

O assentamento Tamarineiro I situa-se a sudoeste da área urbana de Corumbá, Mato Grosso do Sul, a aproximadamente 2 km após o posto aduaneiro Esdras, margeando a fronteira Brasil-Bolívia. Está localizado na parte não inundável da borda oeste do Pantanal, entre as coordenadas 19°02' e 19° 11' de latitude sul e 57° 43' e 57° 51' de longitude a oeste de Greenwich, com uma área total de 3.812,26 ha. Os solos do assentamento Tamarineiro I, apresentam, de maneira geral, elevada fertilidade natural, evidenciada por altas produtividades de algumas culturas, mesmo sem aplicação de fertilizantes. Embora os solos locais possuam boa reserva de nutrientes, as limitações ao cultivo agrícola são expressivas, sendo o principal fator limitante a deficiência hídrica,...

Sugestões de uso e manejo dos solos do Assentamento Urucum, Corumbá - MS.

CARDOSO, E. L.; OLIVEIRA, H. de.

A utilização adequada das terras, respeitando a sua potencialidade, constitui fator primordial para obtenção de rendimentos elevados, viabilidade econômica da atividade e fundamentalmente, conservação dos recursos naturais. A intensificação da atividade agrícola na borda oeste do Pantanal, terras não inundáveis ao redor de Corumbá e Ladário, teve início a partir dos anos 80, com a implantação do primeiro Projeto de Assentamento rural na região, através do Programa Nacional de Colonização e Reforma Agrária. O Assentamento Urucum, localizado 16 km ao sul de Corumbá e próximo à rodovia BR262, com área total de 1.978,93 ha e 84 lotes de tamanhos variados, assim como os demais Assentamentos, possui solos de elevada fertilidade natural, por serem formados a...

Alternativas agrícolas para as condições de solo e clima do Assentamento Mato Grande, Corumbá - MS.

OLIVEIRA, H. de; CARDOSO, E. L..

O assentamento Mato Grande está localizado na borda oeste do Pantanal, entre as coordenadas 19°18' e 19° 20' de latitude sul e 57° 28' a 57° 30' de longitude a oeste de Greenwich, em Corumbá, no estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, com uma área total de 1.264,35 ha, de terras não alagáveis. A principal limitação à atividade agrícola é a deficiência hídrica, decorrente da estação seca pronunciada na região. O cultivo de espécies tolerantes e/ou adaptadas às condições ambientais locais, pode reduzir os riscos de perdas e aumentar as possibilidades de rentabilidade da atividade agrícola. São sugeridas algumas espécies a serem cultivadas, obtidas através de levantamentos bibliográficos, que podem tornar-se opções de cultivo para os agricultores locais. O objetivo...

Sustainable management and use of a medicinal emblematic plant in Chile: Buddleja globosa Hope

Phyton

Wilckens,P; Fernández,MP; Gómez,M; Peña,I; Montenegro,G.

Buddleja globosa Hope is a well-known native, medicinal plant because of its digestive and cicatrizing properties. Due to the increasing domestic and international demand, B. globosa abundance and distribution in Chile has resulted in the intensive exploitation of the plant's natural habitat, without consideration of the plant's regenerative capacity. The main objective of this research was to establish the B. globosa growth cycle and model its regeneration cycle. This would allow for more productive, efficient and sustainable use and management of this species, thus ensuring its long-term conservation. We selected two study sites, one wild and another one cultivated. In each one, ten individuals were marked as control treatments, for further observations,...

Management, Conservation and Farming of Saltwater Crocodiles: An Australian Case Study of Sustainable Commercial Use

Tisdell, Clement A.; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath.

Opinions differ about what types of policies are likely to be most effective in conserving wildlife species. For example, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna (CITES) is based on the premise that curbing the commercial use of endangered species favours their conservation, whereas the Convention on Biological Diversity envisages the possibility that such use may contribute to the conservation of species. In Australia, as illustrated in the case of the saltwater crocodile, the governments of the Northern Territory and Western Australia have favoured the latter policy in recent years whereas Queensland has favoured the former approach. The saltwater crocodile management plan of the Northern Territory provides an...

Tisdell, Clement A.; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath.

Attitudes of a sample of the Australian public towards the subsistence use of wildlife by indigenous Australians and whether or not indigenous Australians should be allowed to sell wildlife and wildlife products is examined. It has been suggested that allowing such possibilities would provide economic incentives for nature conservation among local people. We explore whether those sampled believe that indigenous Australians should do more than other groups and institutions to conserve Australia’s tropical species, and whether or not indigenous Australians should be allowed to take common as well as endangered wildlife species for food. Attitudes of the sampled public towards indigenous Australians earning income from trophy hunting and from the harvesting...

Managing hawksbill turtle populations for use and conservation requires (i) adequate scientific understanding of their population status and dynamics and (ii) consideration of the public’s attitudes to this species. This study employs experimental surveys to assess the Australian public’s attitudes towards the hawksbill turtle, their knowledge of it, their views about its sustainable commercial harvesting, and their support and financial contribution for the species’ conservation. Contingent valuation reveals that the Australian public’s willingness to contribute to the conservation of the hawksbill turtle is high even in comparison to threatened Australian bird and mammal fauna. Most of this stated contribution is based on the intrinsic (non-use) value...

The American alligator has made a remarkable comeback from the brink of extinction. Commercial alligator production is emerging as an important industry in the South. The industry shows similarities to other livestock industries. This paper draws comparisons with other livestock industries to motivate a structural model of the alligator industry.

Public Support for Sustainable Commercial Harvesting of Wildlife: An Australian Case Study

Tisdell, Clement A.; Wilson, Clevo; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath.

This paper surveys a sample of 204 members of the Australian public to determine their attitude to the sustainable commercial harvesting of wildlife generally, and considers their specific support for the sustainable commercial harvesting of each of 24 Australian native species. The general attitude of the sample to wildlife harvesting is related to their attitude to nature conservation. The relationship between respondents’ support for the sustainable commercial harvesting of each of the species and their degree of endangerment based on IUCN Red List rankings is established and found to be an inverse one. Support for the commercial sustainable use of each of the species is compared with the willingness of respondents to pay for their conservation. Support...
