Amphibians occurring in soybean and implications for biological control in Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2005-12)
The diversity and diet composition of amphibians were examined in soybean of the Córdoba and Entre Ríos Provinces of Argentina, investigating their potential as biological control agents of herbivores species. A total of ...
Gross, background, and net anthropogenic soil nitrous oxide emissions from soybean, corn, and wheat croplands
(American Society of Agronomy, 2019-01)
Agricultural soils are the largest single source of N2O emissions globally. However, soils left uncultivated would still release N2O. Distinguishing anthropogenic from natural emissions (i.e., background emissions) in crops ...
The Amazon Frontier of Land-Use Change: Croplands and Consequences for Greenhouse Gas Emissions
(AMER METEOROLOGICAL SOC, 2010)
The Brazilian Amazon is one of the most rapidly developing agricultural frontiers in the world. The authors assess changes in cropland area and the intensification of cropping in the Brazilian agricultural frontier state ...
Pesticide Residues in Immature Soybeans of Argentina Croplands
(Parlar Scientific Publications (p S P), 2004-07)
Residue levels of endosulfa¡, endosulfan sulphate, glyphosate, and aminomethylphosphonate (AMPA) in green turgescent immature seeds of glyphosate-tolerant and non-tolerant soy beans were studied in Argentina. To establish ...
Are field crops refuge for woody invaders? Rainfall, crop type and management shaped tree invasion in croplands
(Elsevier Science, 2021-10)
Woody encroachment represents a global concern which is mostly studied in natural and semi-natural grasslands and savannas. Woody invasion is a growing phenomenon in agricultural landscapes, but it remains elusive how ...
Diversity of anurans across agricultural ponds in Argentina
(Springer, 2006-12)
We examined the anuran diversity of 31 ponds (30 located on the border of soybean cropland and one within a protected forest) in mid-western Entre Ríos Province (Argentina). Moreover, each species found was characterised ...
Composition of Amphibian Assemblages in Agroecosystems from the Central Region of Argentina
(Folium Publishing Company, 2011-04)
The anuran diversity, abundance, richness and evenness were examined in agroecosystems from the central region of Argentina, area that was greatly altered by agricultural activities. Relationships with climatic characteristics ...
Differences in throughfall and net precipitation between soybean and transitional tropical forest in the southern Amazon, Brazil
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BVAMSTERDAM, 2012)
The expansion of soybean cultivation into the Amazon in Brazil has potential hydrological effects at local to regional scales. To determine the impacts of soybean agriculture on hydrology, a comparison of net precipitation ...
National-scale soybean mapping and area estimation in the United States using medium resolution satellite imagery and field survey
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017-03)
Reliable and timely information on agricultural production is essential for ensuring world food security. Freely available medium-resolution satellite data (e.g. Landsat, Sentinel) offer the possibility of improved global ...
Weed Communities in Semiarid Rainfed Croplands of Central Argentina: Comparison between Corn (Zea mays) and Soybean (Glycine max) Crops
(Weed Science Society of America, 2018-05)
The semiarid Espinal in central Argentina, being recently transformed from natural semiarid grasslands into agriculture, represents an interesting scenario to understand the early stages of weed community assembly and its ...
