13. Spatial prediction of soil penetration resistance using functional geostatistics
ABSTRACT Knowledge of agricultural soils is a relevant factor for the sustainable development of farming activities. Studies on agricultural soils usually begin with the analysis of data obtained from sampling a finite number of sites in a particular region of interest. The variables measured at each site can be scalar (chemical properties) or functional (in

14. Reducing health inequalities: the use of Health Impact Assessment on Rural Areas
Health is greatly influenced by social, economic and political determinants. Accordingly, decisions influencing people's health do not concern only health services or 'health policies', but decisions in many different policy areas have their influence on these health determinants. Health Impact assessment (HIA) is a predictive tool to support decisions in po

17. A Química na agricultura: perspectivas para o desenvolvimento de tecnologias sustentáveis
Food production and preservation of the environment are among the challenges faced by contemporary society. In Brazil, as in most parts of the world, the possibility of increasing the agricultural area is limited by several factors. Thus, an increase in productivity through the application of innovative technologies is regarded as the best solution to overco

20. Evaluation of the erosion susceptibility and proposal of a strategic zoning plan for the sustainable management of the Piranga River Watershed, MG / Avaliação da suscetibilidade à erosão e proposição de zoneamento estratégico com vistas à sustentabilidade da bacia hidrográfica do rio Piranga, MG
The Piranga River watershed lies within a region in Brazil which requires special attention because of negative environmental impacts from uncontrolled deforestation during the expansion of the agricultural activity, inadequate soil management and untreated effluent discharge, and also because of its low level of socioeconomic development. In addition, the P

23. Análise integrada do uso e aptidão agrícola dos solos na Amazônia Legal visando o desenvolvimento sustentável
Encroachment of the agricultural frontier over the Brazilian Amazon (Amazônia Legal) forest and savanna (cerrado) areas generates an array of negative environmental impacts, such as deforestation and fires. The conflict between the pressing agricultural front, mainly represented by cattle and soya productions, and the preservation of such forest and cerrado

24. Parques agrários no baixo Jaguaribe : arquitetura rural da região dos perímetros irrigados resultante do planejamento de bacias hidrográficas / Agrarian park on lower Jaguaribe : rural architecture in the region of irrigated perimeters resulting from watersheds planning
Human interventions confer throughout history personality and typical characteristics in several regions. In Ceará, the region of the irrigated areas of low Jaguaribe is a good example of the interaction that takes place in the landscape, mainly by human disturbances - which reveals a mastery over nature - and by the landscapes when associated to the histor
