This study aims to assess the effect of the N side dressing fertilization at the V4 stage of soybean, with and without inoculation, as well as its effects on the process of biological nitrogen fixation (BNF). The experimental design was randomized complete-block design with four replications in factorial scheme 2 × 5, where the seeds were either inoculated or not and received 5 doses of N: 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 kg ha−1. Vegetative growth, nodulation, and yield components were evaluated. The stem diameter, plant height, and grain yield were not affected by inoculation, only by the N doses, with positive linear responses to the N supply. The leaf area responded positively to the seed inoculation and to the N supply. The node mass and viable node mass were not altered by seed inoculation or the supply of mineral N; and, until the dose of 40 kg ha−1, the node formation did not decrease. The number of pods per plant and the thousand-grain weight showed an interaction between inoculation and doses of N. The side dressing N fertilization at the V4 stage, until the dose of 40 kg ha−1, did not affect the vegetative growth and BNF, while it contributed to increase grain yield, even in the presence of inoculation.

Five proportions of nitrate and ammonium ions (NO3- :NH4+) were used: T1=100:0, T2=75:25, T3=50:50, T4=25:75 and T5=0:100, through nutrient solutions. After 35 days of cultivation, the following were evaluated: plant height, number of leaves, culm diameter, chlorophyll a, b, total and a/b ratio, root length, leaf fresh matter mass, dry matter mass of leaves, culm, roots, total dry mass, and root dry mass/shoot dry mass ratio, leaf area, specific leaf area, leaf area ratio, and leaf mass ratio. Nitrate as the only source of nitrogen provided a smaller increase in the chlorophyll a index of maize plants, which is the most important chlorophyll in the capture of light in the antenna complex.

The use of ethylene is an alternative to optimize and increase the harvest yield of coffee, besides reducing expenditures on labor and post-harvest ground picking. This study was carried out to examine the harvest yield of coffee variety Mundo Novo IAC 379/19 under different ethylene rates as well as to analyze beverage quality in the different treatments. The experiment was laid out in a randomized-block design with four treatments (ethylene rates: 0, 300, 500, or 700 mL ha-1). The plots consisted of nine plants and three replications, but only the three central plants were evaluated. Results were analyzed by Tukey’s test at a significance level of 5%. The rates of 700 and 300 mL ha-1 provided the lowest amount of green fruits, whereas the percentage of ripe fruits was equivalent between treatments. The treatment with 700 mL ha-1 resulted in the highest percentage of fruits in the overripe stage, among the evaluated rates. Ethylene use did not increase harvest efficiency.

The study was carried out in the municipality of Lagoa Seca/PB, Brazil (7°10’15” S, 53°51’43” W, and 640 m of altitude), on a Regosols with a sandy loam textural classification. The experiment was set up in an entirely randomized design, with five treatments and five repetitions. The treatments were composed of: 1) Mombaça grass (Panicum maximum Jacq.) + Maize (Zea mays L.)

The following variables were analyzed: flocculation degree, clay dispersed in water, soil porosity (total, macroporosity, microporosity), aeration porosity in the macro pore domain, soil bulk density, hydraulic conductivity, and available water. According to the results, the physical-hydric quality of the soil between the integrated systems was not significant, but compared to the conventional system, it showed satisfactory results. On the other hand, it is concluded that the modification of soil structure in an agricultural area has reduced water availability to plants to 75.20% below what is considered adequate.
