In this work the behavior of the price of two varieties of pineapple Gold and wholesalers Perolera two plants in Colombia is analyzed. The techniques used were the cointegration and Granger causality test, for which prices were taken pineapple, in the period 2006-2011 of wholesale markets Corabastos (in the case of Bogotá) and the Central Wholesale Itagui (for Medellin). The theoretical framework was the law of one ...
Ethnobotanical study and commercialization of medicinal plants in the Murocomba protected forest and its influence area in the Valencia Canton, EcuadorEstudio etnobotánico y comercialización de plantas medicinales del bosque protector Murocomba y su área de influencia del cantón Valencia, Ecuador
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2019)
The ethnobotanical uses of the medicinal plants in the Murocomba protected forest and its area of influence, located in the Valencia canton in Ecuador, were determined in this article; Fifty-six analytic types of surveys were applied in five locations. To obtain information on plant propagation, 20 surveys were carried out in forest localities. For the identification of the commercialization processes, 40 surveys were ...
Permanent plot for monitoring in a galleria forest in Puerto Gaitan MetaParcela permanente de monitoreo de bosque de galería, en Puerto Gaitán, Meta
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2015)
In 2010, Corpoica began in the dissected eastern plains of Colombia, the installation and study of the structure and floristic composition in a permanent one-hectare plot located in the tropical bioclimatic unit called gallery forest, in the municipality of Puerto Gaitan, Meta. The plot was laid out and demarcated; then, were identified and measured all individuals with DBH greater than ten centimeters. Accordingly ...
Biological and ecological aspects of hard ticksAspectos biológicos y ecológicos de las garrapatas durasAspectos biológicos e ecológicos dos carrapatos duros
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2016)
Hard ticks are blood-sucking ectoparasites of Ixodidae family. These mites have been always considered disrupting agents of livestock systems, where they are recognized as the cause of economic and production losses. However, their ecological role is important for the dynamic equilibrium of the production systems bovine meat or milk. Knowing their biology and ecology can shed light on the sanitary decisions made in ...
Bromatological and structural changes in Megathyrsus maximus in four silvopastoral arrangement systemsCambios bromatológicos y estructurales en Megathyrsus maximum bajo cuatro arreglos silvopastoriles
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2019)
The aim of this study was to compare the bromatological and structural behavior of Megathyrsus maximus (Poaceae) in four silvopastoral arrangement systems and a treeless prairie. Exclusion cages were used to evaluate four regrowth ages: 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. In each stage, the following were assessed: crude protein, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber and in situ degradability of dry matter (bromatological) ...
Corpoica H5: the first high quality protein (QPM) hybrid maize for Colombian eastern plainsCorpoica H5: primer híbrido de maíz amarillo de alta calidad de proteína (QPM) para la altillanura plana colombiana
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2014)
Colombia has an annual deficit of maize to meet the feed industry. In 2012, the country produced only 20.2% of the corn required by the industry; 1.0% of this production is obtained on the Colombian high plains (20,000 hectares); however, this region has an area of 500,000 hectares suitable for growing corn. To meet domestic demand, the government implemented the National Maize Plan (Plan País Maíz): a promoting and ...
Some studies on allelopathy of Rumex crispus L. and Polygonum segetum HBK., in ColombiaAlgunos estudios de alelopatía de Rumex crispus L. y Polygonum segetum HBK., en Colombia.
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2003)
Curly dock (Rumex crispus, ‘lengua de vaca’) and smartweed (Polygonum segetum, ‘gualola’), are two common weed species that grow in subtropical areas of the world, where cause great losses in crops and grasslands due to their aggressiveness. In Colombia they are found on lands over 2000 m.o.s.l., and as they propagate by both, sexual and vegetative ways, it is very difficult to manage them. Several experiments were ...
Genetic variability study of field Leptospira spp. isolates in beef and double purpose bovine production systemsEstudio de variabilidad genética en aislamientos de Leptospira spp., en sistemas bovinos de carne y doble propósitoEstudo de variabilidade genética em isolamentos de Leptospira spp., em sistemas bovinos de carne e duplo propósito
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2016)
Leptospira spp. serovars were isolated from bovine kidney and urine in the Cundinamarca and Meta departments of Colombia. The isolates were classified by both, phylogenetic analysis and ribotyping, using 16SDNAr as a marker gene. The Phylogenetic analysis allowed the classification of the isolates into two of the three genomaspecies recognized: pathogenic and intermediate. The latter is of great importance because its ...
Anaerobic soil bacteria causing sudden death in cattle feeding on tropical savannahs: research in ColombiaBacterias anaerobias del suelo responsables de la muerte súbita bovina en sabanas tropicales: investigaciones realizadas en Colombia
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2008)
The study of the clostridiosis in Colombia must be a priority for sanitary authorities due to the sanitary and economic impact caused by these bacteria. Disease clinical signs and symptoms, and effect on animals in good meat condition suppose a high financial impact. This article reviews major research in clostridiosis in recent years, published in scientific and gray literature. Emphasis is made on bovine sudden ...
Mexico and the food self-sufficiency (six-year period 2006 -2012)México y la autosuficiencia alimentaria (sexenio 2006 -2012)
(Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (Agrosavia), 2015)
Today, Mexico challenges a globalization trend where richer countries export basic products to developing countries, generating a food crisis that negatively affect the medium-small producers. For this reason, it is important to study the behavior of the food market (exports and imports), since the current Mexican development model does not achieve that food security be a national policy guaranteeing the provision of ...
