Nutrition has a fundamental role in the production of beef cattle, directly interfering in the costs, productivity and profitability of the activity. In this sense, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the challenges, opportunities and advantages of the production of the entire cattle fattening diet on the Angico farm, in the municipality of Corumbá - Mato Grosso do Sul. Applied research was carried out as a way of studying case. In the 2017/2018 harvest, the farm's own production yielded 116 bags/hectare of corn, 40 bags / hectare of soybeans, 42 tons / hectare of silage sorghum and 72.5 bags/hectare of grain sorghum. All these ingredients were used in the feed of the feedlot animals. It was concluded that at the Angico farm, with the use of proper planting and management techniques, it was possible to overcome production barriers (adverse weather, attack by pests, diseases and wild animals), thus improving the efficiency of the enterprise. In addition, it was possible to recover degraded pasture areas and increase the farm's food independence by reducing the purchase of food from third parties and reducing costs per arroba produced with the animals' own food production.

AbstractThe objective of this chapter is to assess how the expanding production of biofuels as part of an emerging bioeconomy affects existing social inequalities in labour and land relations. A case study method was applied to investigate the growth of the sugarcane industry in Mato Grosso do Sul between 2000 and 2016. The analytical framework of social inequalities and a rural labour regime approach guided the research and data analysis. This chapter shows that the expansion of biofuels was propelled by an entanglement of global dynamics such as land grabbing and green development discourses, as well as national policies that fostered bioethanol production. The expansion of the sugarcane industry in Mato Grosso do Sul led to changes in existing labour regimes. The most striking changes were the increased but temporal semi-proletarianisation of peasants in agrarian reform settlements and the double exclusion of the Guarani-Kaiowá Indigenous people.

Abstract In view of the difficulty in adopting the International Accounting Standard (IAS) 41, which determines the measurement of biological assets, this study aimed at empirically approaching a fair-value based methodology to evaluate biological assets, without an active market. In order to meet the study proposal, a case study with a quantitative approach was carried out to assess a soybean crop cultivated in the Mato Grosso do Sul State. Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) was the chosen evaluation method. Data collection was done through analysis of internal reports and semi-structured interviews. Few practical works detailing valuation of biological assets are available in the national and international literature; therefore, this is the main contribution of this work. Results suggest that besides using economic and accounting knowledge, it is advisable to consider agronomic knowledge since this type of information influences the valuation of biological assets in quantitative and qualitative terms. At the end, general comments and a research agenda are presented.

Este artigo realiza uma análise do andamento processual de três ações civis públicas relativas a saneamento básico ajuizadas nos Municípios de Aquidauana, Mato Grosso do Sul; Tubarão, Santa Catarina e Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul. O estudo tem um duplo objetivo. Em primeiro lugar, trazer exemplos concretos e atualizados da pesquisa realizada por Ana Paula de Barcellos e disponível no artigo “Sanitation Rights, Public Law Litigation, and Inequality: A Case Study from Brazil”[1] no que diz respeito ao cumprimento das decisões judiciais proferidas em cada uma dessas ações, que determinavam a prestação de serviços de saneamento básico. Espera-se que a investigação qualitativa desses casos em particular possa colaborar na complementação dos dados quantitativos levantados pela pesquisa citada. O segundo objetivo do estudo é avaliar a existência e acessibilidade de informações acerca da execução das referidas decisões judiciais. As conclusões apuradas foram as seguintes: (i) existe um grande abismo entre a consagração judicial do direito e sua efetiva implementação na realidade; e (ii) os sites dos Tribunais não contém informações acerca da execução real das decisões judiciais nos casos examinados.[1] Artigo publicado no Health and Human Rights Journal nº 2, Vol, 16.

A busca por subsídios para construção de indicadores que sejam relevantes na gestão das unidades de produção agropecuárias é constante. Objetiva-se neste trabalho, identificar e analisar os principais indicadores socioeconômicos, na gestão de unidades de produção agropecuária do tipo familiar em assentamento de reforma agrária. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa e quantitativa com caráter exploratório e descritivo. Quanto aos procedimentos técnicos ou forma da coleta dos dados, a estratégia de pesquisa, utilizada, foi o levantamento a campo por meio de entrevista. Adotou-se também, estudos exploratórios, descritivos e documentais. Na amostra foram entrevistadas 59 famílias rurais do assentamento Teijin, Nova Andradina - Mato Grosso do Sul. Como principais atividades exploradas pelas famílias assentadas destacam-se: a produção do leite, praticada em 69,6% das UPA's, bovinos de corte em 6,8%, e a produção de hortifrutigranjeiros, mandioca. Também a atividade do part time é destaque. Cada Unidade de Produção Agropecuária possui uma área para exploração de 14,52 hectares. A sucessão familiar aparece como um dos principais indicadores que compromete a sustentabilidade das UPA's.

ABSTRACT: Stable fly (Stomoxys calcitrans) outbreaks have been associated with sugarcane mills in Brazil. This study aimed to evaluate the attractivity of vinasse, a liquid byproduct of ethanol production applied to postharvest sugarcane fields, to adult S. calcitrans. Stable fly abundance was monitored for 21 days in August-September 2014, at a sugarcane mill in the municipality of Nova Alvorada do Sul, state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Following mechanized harvesting of sugarcane and the consequent deposition of large amounts of plant residue (straw) in the field, the study area (13.5ha) was surrounded by 22 sticky cylinder (“alsynite”) traps. The area was fertigated with vinasse immediately after the traps were placed. Insects caught in the traps were collected daily at 7:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m. and 15:00 p.m. A total of 83,593 specimens of S. calcitrans were caught, of which 5,516 (6.6%) were attracted within the first five hours after vinasse application. The highest number of S. calcitrans was caught in the first week following vinasse application, with a peak on the 4th day (12,818 flies), which was influenced by adverse weather conditions on the previous days. This study confirms that fertigation of sugarcane fields by spraying vinasse after the harvest attracts S. calcitrans, thus quickly increasing their abundance over the days following application.

Ontological and identitary questions affecting indigenous peoples are discussed through an assessment of the socio-spatial trajectory of the Guarani-Kaiowa of South America, employing an analytical framework centred around land, labour and ethnicity. These enhanced politico-economic categories provide important entry points for understanding the violence and exploitation perpetrated against indigenous groups, as well as their capacity to reclaim ancestral territory lost to development. Evidence indicates that ethnicity is integral to class-based processes, given that the advance of capitalist relations both presumes and produces difference and subordination. The case study in the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso do Sul demonstrates that the Guarani-Kaiowa became refugees in their own land due to ethnic differences, but at the same time their labour has underpinned the regional economy to a considerable extent through interrelated mechanisms of peasantification and proleterianisation. Trends of exploitation and alienation have intensified in recent decades due to racism and socio-spatial segregation, but the action/reaction of subordinate groups has also been reinforced through references to their ethnicity.
