A comparative life cycle assessment of the sugarcane value chain in the province of Tucumán (Argentina) considering different technology levels
(Springer, 2017)Purpose: The purpose of this work is to quantify the environmental impact of the sugarcane industry in Tucumán (Argentina) through the life cycle analysis (LCA). The distinctive feature is the consideration of different ... -
La actividad peroxidasa en caña de azúcar (Saccharum spp): evolución temporal de la reacción y su posible rol en la resistencia a la roya marrón (Puccinia melanocephala, H & P Sydow)
(Gerencia de Comunicación e Imagen Institucional, DNA SICC, INTA, 2013-08)La roya marrón de la caña de azúcar, causada por Puccinia melanocephala, es una enfermedad foliar de preocupación en casi todos los países donde se cultiva la caña de azúcar. Los programas de mejoramiento del cultivo se ... -
Cultivares de frutilla adecuadas al uso de residuos de cosecha de caña de azúcar como acolchado alternativo al plástico = Suitable strawberry cultivars to sugarcane harvest residue mulch as an alternative to plastic mulch
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura, 2012)Se evaluó la adaptabilidad de diferentes cultivares de frutilla (Fragaria ananassa Duch.) al uso de “maloja” de caña de azúcar (Saccharum officinarum L.) como alternativa al acolchado plástico, en EEA INTA Famaillá, Tucumán, ... -
Emisiones provinciales de gases con efecto invernadero del sistema suelo-caña de azúcar de Tucumán
(Ediciones INTA, 2020-12)Las estimaciones de emisiones de gases con efecto invernadero (GEI) de suelos agrícolas informadas en el último Reporte Bienal de Actualización de Argentina en 2017 presentan gran incertidumbre debido a que se basan en el ... -
Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Green-Harvested Sugarcane With and Without Post-harvest Burning in Tucumán, Argentina
(2014-06)Concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere are increasing due to anthropogenic actions, and agriculture is one of the most important contributors. This study quantified GHG emissions from green-cane harvested ... -
Greenhouse gasses emissions and energy balances of a non-vertically integrated sugar and ethanol supply chain: A case study in Argentina
(2013-06-01)In order to address society's concerns regarding the sustainability of sugar and ethanol production and use, this paper calculates the energy and greenhouse gasses (GHG) emissions' balances of a non-vertically integrated ... -
Isolation and genetic characterization of Acidovorax avenae from red stripe infected sugarcane in Northwestern Argentina
(2013-11)Red stripe is a bacterial disease of sugarcane causing important economic losses in Argentina that affects 30 % of the milling stems and consequently the juice quality. In this study, sugarcane leaves exhibiting red stripe ... -
MLST reveals a separate and novel clonal group for Acidovorax avenae strains causing red stripe in sugarcane from Argentina
(American Phytopathological Society, 2018-09)Acidovorax species cause a wide range of economically important diseases in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants, including sugarcane, corn, rice, oats, millet, foxtail watermelon and orchids. In Argentina, the red ... -
Molecular versus morphological markers to describe variability in sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum) for germplasm management and conservation = Marcadores moleculares y morfológicos para la descripción de variabilidad en caña de azúcar (Saccharum officinarum) con fines de manejo y conservación de germoplasma
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2020-06)Sugarcane is one of the most important industrial crops in tropical and subtropical regions. INTA (Argentina) administrates a Sugarcane Germplasm Bank and carries out a breeding program. The current study was designed to ... -
Nitrate Leaching in an Argiudoll Cultivated with Sugarcane
(2014-09)The aim of the study was to quantify nitrate leaching from an Aquic Argiudoll cultivated with sugarcane in Tucumán, Argentina. Two field trials were conducted during the 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 seasons with the variety LCP ... -
Nitrogen‐, water‐ and radiation‐use efficiencies affected by sugarcane breeding in Argentina
(2017-04)This study aimed to identify whether and how sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) breeding in Argentina modified nitrogen‐use efficiency (NUE), water‐use efficiency (WUE) and radiation‐use efficiency (RUE). Thirteen varieties were ... -
Revisión crítica de la evolución tecnológica de la cosecha de la caña de azúcar en la Argentina
(Ediciones INTA, 2019-04)La agroindustria argentina del azúcar se concentra en la región noroeste. Tucumán es la principal productora, con 70% de la superficie nacional implantada. Resulta casi imposible pensar en el desarrollo económico y social ... -
Soil properties of sugarcane fields controlling triazine leaching potential.
(CSIRO PUBLISHING, 2019-08-21)Atrazine and ametryn are pre- and post-emergence herbicides widely used in sugarcane fields. Both herbicides are characterized by their moderate to high mobility in soil and are regarded as a threat to hydrologic systems. ... -
Source–sink relationships during early crop development influence earliness of sugar accumulation in sugarcane
(Oxford University Press, 2019-10)In subtropical environments where sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) crops are frequently limited by the duration of the growth cycle, earliness in maturity is a key genotypic trait. Using the concept of source–sink relationships, ... -
To burn or not to burn : the question of straw burning and nitrogen fertilization effect on nitrous oxide emissions in sugarcane
(2017)Nitrous oxide (N2O) is the main greenhouse gas emitted from farming systems and is associated with nitrogen (N) fertilizer application as well as decomposition of organic matter present in the environment. The objective ... -
