Yield prediction is still a major challenge in pear production. Forecasting fruit growth after modeled curves allows predicting both potential yield and quality. This research aimed to fit multilevel no-linear mixed models (NLMM) based on logistic curves to describe pear growth in the Upper valley of Rio Negro and Neuquén, Argentina. The models incorporated several […]

Grazing systems have the potential to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improve C balance through soil C sequestration. The inclusion of soil organic carbon (SOC) balance in farm scale models is needed to assess the C balance of grazing dairy systems. The objective of this work was to present and evaluate the sensitivity of […]

The growth of ruminal papillae and rumen thickness in calves subjected to two different feed rations were evaluated. Two homogeneous treatment groups were established, consisting of four individuals each (T1 and T2). T1 calves received colostrum, milk, and fresh alfalfa, while T2 calves received the same composition as the first group, supplemented with a concentrated […]

Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugars that also contains small amounts of enzymes, vitamins, phenolic compounds (e.g., flavonoids), terpenes, organic acids and hydrogen peroxide. The presence of such substances explains honey’s biological activity and absorbance of ultraviolet radiation. Honey is one of the three most adulterated foods worldwide. High-complexity and sensitivity techniques are used […]

Pea is considered an essential component of sustainable farming systems. The main objective of pea researchers in Argentina and worldwide is to improve yield components and composition of the seed to enhance nutritional characteristics. Breeding programs that use conventional and nonconventional techniques are a very important tool to develop new varieties that can be used […]

Induced mutation techniques have been effectively used to obtain new variability in crop plants. Mutations are the primary source of genetic variability and therefore, some control over their frequency can be considered a valuable tool for plant breeding. Mutagens can be grouped into two broad categories according to their nature: physical and chemical. Doses must […]

Proline is an amino acid that accumulates in plants in response to stress conditions. Exogenous application of proline has been reported to increase stress tolerance. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different exogenous proline solutions applied to melon seedlings grown under saline stress. Four concentrations of proline were evaluated: 0, 5, 10 […]

Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is the etiologic agent of paratuberculosis or Johne’s disease (JD), a chronic enteritis disease that affects cattle and other animal species and has been linked to Crohn’s disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease in humans. MAP could resist pasteurization conditions and has been isolated from retail milk in several countries. […]

Coccidiosis is an intestinal infection caused by protozoans of the genus Eimeria. When the disease occurs in winter, it is known as winter coccidiosis. In July 2021, two calves were referred to INTA-Salta SDVE to determine the cause of death. These animals belonged to a herd that had shown clinical signs, such as bloody diarrhea, […]

En la actualidad, la tendencia para el consumo de alimentos mínimamente procesados como hortalizas y frutas de IV gama crece conforme los cambios en los hábitos de consumo. Los métodos de conservación favorecen la inocuidad y calidad de los alimentos, así como la preservación de sus propiedades nutricionales y sensoriales. En este sentido, se plantea […]
in Spanish Since its creation in 1956, INTA has accompanied the national and regional agricultural sector by developing technological innovation actions in agricultural value chains, and also in different regions and territories to improve country’s competitiveness and sustainable rural development. Within its institutional strategy for the communication of technological and scientific advances, INTA has the […]
