In-person event.
A technical exchange meeting was held on agricultural waste management and sustainable practices. Participants learned about implementation experiences in sugar mills and production units. Successful case studies, opportunities for zero-waste disposal, and soil conservation strategies were presented.
- It facilitated the direct exchange of practical experiences between sugar mills and producers.
- The progress and results of the 0x0 runaway were presented in different production contexts.
- The use of waste and the microbial conservation that this practice represents were addressed.
- To raise awareness and provide knowledge about the value of agricultural waste as a resource for the soil.
| Syllabus | Speaker |
| From waste to resources: allies in fertilization. Mineralization. Benefits. Disadvantages. Nutrients in leaves at 10.7 months of age. Effect of residues on some physical properties. Effect of residues on productivity. Relationship between organic matter and labile carbon. Effects of residues on some chemical properties. Residue contribution vs. fertilization rate. | Magda Narváez. Cenicaña |
| Agricultural crop residues for the conservation of soil microbial life. Plot 17A – RAC Trial, Cenicaña Experimental Station. Maintaining the RAC preserves the abundance of microbial functional groups in sugarcane soils. Nitrogen-fixing bacterial biofilms isolated from the rhizosphere of 24-year-old sugarcane in Plot 19A with crop residues. The RAC maintains a high richness of nitrogen-fixing bacterial communities – Biotechnological potential. | Julian Masmela Cenicaña |
