The adoption of agro-forest systems (SAFs) which are based in (agro) ecological practices has great potential for generating social, economic and environmental benefits, above all to family farmers. Thus, it was implanted, in the county of Tomé-Açu, Pará, SAFs composed by annual and perennial species, combined with Palm Oil Trees (Elaeis guineensis), in three family estates. In each one of them, the SAFs were installed after the area's preparation without the use of fires, based in the principle ... Status: Completed Start date: Sun Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2010 |

In the greatest part of the Brazilian Amazon, family farming is practiced with the system of forest slash and burn. This practice is questionable due to the consequential loss of nutrients, the emission of harmful gases into the atmosphere and the risk of uncontrollable fires. This agricultural system keeps productivity levels which decrease with the succession of fires and short set-aside periods. Systems of integrated management of natural resources which involve mitigating technologies of env Status: Completed Start date: Thu Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2010 |

The culture of yuca is traditionally rustic and adapted to soil and climate marginal conditions. It is also one of the most important sources of carbohydrates for 600 million people in tropical countries worldwide. Although the entire plant is consumed, the root is the most important part of the plant (Fukuda et al., 2008), and in Pará, the area destined to the cultivation of yucca is rather expressive, reaching 326,000 hectares in the year 2007, with a production of 5,211,503 root tons, a fact ...
