Item Additives to control the quality of coffee husk poultry litter(Revista Engenharia na Agricultura, 2018-06-29) Ferreira, Cecília de Fátima Souza; Santos, Cláudia Ribeiro dos; Inoue, Keles Regina Antony; Tinoco, Ilda de Fatima Ferreira; Ferreira, Williams Pinto MarquesThe poultry litter keeps the birds comfortable and absorbs the humidity generated in the environment, reducing the feet injuries. Then, its quality is essential. The objective for carrying out the present study was to evaluate the quality of the coffee husk poultry litter, treated with chemical additives, based on its humidity, N-ammonia, pH and bacteria total counting. The experiment was carried out in Minas Gerais state, Brazil, in a coffee producer region. It were used three facilities, in which it were placed circular boxes, each of them divided in seven parts, 2 m2 each one, where it were put the different types of poultry litter, being these the seven treatments: sawdust and coffee husks litter, being this last, new and untreated or treated with different additives and reused. Twenty-two chicks were distributed in each treatment (154 birds per facility, 11 birds m-2). Litter samples were collected at 7, 21 and 42 days of birds age. The experimental design was in randomized blocks, subdivided plots. The results were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey’s test. The hydrated lime increased the pH in the initial phase (7 days) and decreased the moisture of the reused litter, compared to the new one. The gypsum reduced the pH of the litter at the end of the second phase. The N-ammonia content of the reused litter, without treatment, was superior compared to the new one, untreated and treated with lime. There was no effect on the standard counting of bacteria and on the surface temperature of the litter. Then, the use of chemical additives in the poultry litter constitutes a good strategy to control its quality, as well as the environmental conditions to produce poultry meat.Item Influence of temperature and altitude on the expansion of coffee crops in Matas de Minas, Brazil(Revista Engenharia na Agricultura, 2020-02-20) Oliveira, Karine Rabelo; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Fonseca, Humberto Paiva; Souza, Cecília FátimaCoffee is among the most significant products in Brazil. Minas Gerais is the largest state producer of Arabica coffee. Coffee activity has excellent growth potential, which justifies the identification of new areas for expansion of the culture. This study aimed to determine factors that affect the spatial distribution of coffee plantations the most, as well as to identify areas with a greater aptitude for its expansion in the region of the Matas de Minas (63 municipalities). The MaxEnt software was used to elaborate a model capable of describing the area with the highest potential for estimating the probability of coffee adequacy. The elaboration of the model considered the records of occurrence, climatic and topographic variables of Matas de Minas, the second largest state producing region. The area under the curve (AUC), the omission rate and the Jackknife test were used for validation and analysis of the model. The model was accurate with an AUC of 0.816 and omission rate of 0.54% for the ‘test’. It was identified that the potential distribution of coffee in Matas de Minas is determined by changes in the annual maximum temperature, although it did not generate a significant gain when omitted, accounting for a considerable loss in the model. However, the most influential variables on the delineation of distribution were, the altitude and the annual average temperature. The most favorable areas for expansion of coffee culture in the Matas de Minas were found in the vicinity of the region of Alto Caparaó.Item Water footprint of Arabica coffee from “Matas de Minas” under shade management(Universidade Federal de Viçosa, 2022-07-22) Silva, Laís Maria Rodrigues; Ribeiro, Marcelo de Freitas; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Rocha Junior, Paulo Roberto da; Fernandes, Raphael Bragança AlvesStudies related to climate change and agricultural value chains have in common the growing concern on conserving water resources. Thus, the concept of the water footprint stands out, which measures the amount of water (in volume) necessary to produce a unit (in mass) of a given product. Among Brazilian agricultural activities, coffee farming emerges as one of the most important, even though the crop is sensitive to potential climatic changes, especially to the increase in temperature and periods of drought. An alternative to mitigate the effects of climate change is shade management, which is common in agroforestry systems. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of shade management on the water footprint of coffee activity in the region of “Matas de Minas”. The water footprint was calculated for the field and product processing phase. Despite reducing the evapotranspiration of the coffee plant, shade management provided an increase in the water footprint, since it decreased the crop yield. The water footprint data obtained are expressive, with a calculated value of 13,862 m3 t-1 for full sun management and 16,895 m3 t-1 for shade management, in which both are the most recommended for the agricultural sector.Item Agroclimatic zoning for coffee crop in Angola(Escola de Agronomia - UFG, 2018) Ngolo, Aristides Osvaldo; Fernandes Filho, Elpídio Inácio; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Fernandes, Raphael Bragança AlvesO Governo de Angola tem a intenção de recuperar sua alta produção de café da década de 1970, por meio de programas de financiamento agrícola direcionados especialmente aos agricultores familiares. Objetivou-se realizar o zoneamento agroclimático para a cultura do cafeeiro em território angolano. Dados ou estimativas de temperatura anual, precipitação efetiva e total, balanço hídrico climático e déficit de água anual foram avaliados para todos os 163 municípios angolanos. Os dados de precipitação efetiva e total foram utilizados para o zoneamento agroclimático da cultura do cafeeiro no país. Com o uso da precipitação efetiva, 1 %, 20 % e 79 % do território de Angola foram considerados adequado, marginal e inapto para o café Arábica, respectivamente, enquanto, para o café Robusta, esses mesmos percentuais foram de 1 %, 8 % e 91 %. Com a utilização da precipitação total, esses mesmos valores foram de 2 %, 27,5 % e 70,5 % para o café Arábica e 1 %, 11,8 % e 87,2 % para o Robusta. As áreas marginais e inaptas para a produção de café em Angola estão associadas às condições de déficit hídrico, principalmente na região sudoeste do país e ao longo da faixa costeira. Os resultados obtidos a partir do balanço hídrico climático indicam que a maior parte do território angolano é marginal ou inapta para a cultura do cafeeiro.Item Histochemical approach of the mobilization of reserve compounds in germinating coffee seeds(Editora UFLA, 2020) Oliveira, Leonardo Araujo; Souza, Genaina Aparecida de; Silva, Bruno Tavares; Rocha, Antônio Augusto Gomes; Picoli, Edgard Augusto de Toledo; Pereira, Diego de Sousa; Donzeles, Sérgio Maurício Lopes; Ribeiro, Marcelo de Freitas; Ferreira, Williams Pinto MarquesThe endosperm of coffee beans is an important structure which is composed of different reserve compounds. In the present study, we followed anatomical features during the reserve mobilization of Coffea arabica L. cv ‘Catuaí’ seed samples, harvested at 20 different sites, after 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 30 and 45 days of imbibition. Seed samples were properly stored for enzyme activity assessment and fixed in FAA solution (formaldehyde, acetic acid and ethanol, 1; 1; 18) and kept in ethanol 70% solution, for histochemical analysis. Alternatively, samples for phenolic compounds histochemical test were fixed in Ferrous sulfate in formalin. Fixed samples were cross-sectioned for detection of starch, lipids, essential oils, oleoresins, proteins, phenolic compounds, neutral polysaccharides, alkaloids, β-1,3 and β-1,4 glucans, and lignin. Overall, based on histochemical tests and enzyme activity, seed reserve mobilization was similar among the evaluated altitudes and mountainsides. During soaking, there is an intense consumption of reserve compounds, starting at the region close to the embryo. Reserve mobilization intensifies after root protrusion, from 12 days of soaking. The intensification of the reserve consumption concomitant with an increased activity of MDH is observed at the first 12 days, whereas SOD showed higher expression after 30 days of soaking. At the 30th day, little reserve is observed in the endosperm. At 45th day, cotyledon leaves are expanded, and the root system, constituted by the taproot and lateral roots, is well established.Item Sensory analysis of specialty coffee from different environmental conditions in the region of Matas de Minas, Minas Gerais, Brazil(Universidade Federal de Viçosa, 2016-07) Silveira, Alice de Souza; Pinheiro, Aracy Camilla Tardin; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Silva, Laércio Junio da; Rufino, José Luis dos Santos; Sakiyama, Ney SussumuSpecialty coffees can be differentiated in various ways, including the environmental conditions in which they are produced and the sensory composition of the drink. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of altitude, slope exposure and fruit color on the sensory attributes of cafes of the region of Matas de Minas. Sampling points were georeferenced in four altitude ranges (< 700 m; 700 < x > 825 m, 825 < x < 950 m and > 950 m) of the coffee crop; two fruit colors of var. Catuaí (yellow and red); and two slope exposures (North-facing and South-facing). Coffee fruit at the cherry stage were processed and submitted to sensory analysis. The sensory attributes evaluated were overall perception, clean cup, balance, aftertaste, sweetness, acidity, body and flavor, which made up the final score. The scores were examined by ANOVA and means were compared by the Tukey test (p < 0.05). From the sensory standpoint, coffee fruits of both colors are similar, as well as the coffees from both slope exposures when these factors were analyzed separately. However, at higher altitudes, Yellow Catuaí produces coffees with better sensory quality. Similarly, coffees from North-facing slopes, at higher altitudes produce better quality cup. The altitude is the main factor that interferes with coffee quality in the area. All factors together contribute to the final quality of the beverage produced in the region of Matas de Minas.Item Ambiente e variedades influenciam a qualidade de cafés das matas de Minas(Editora UFLA, 2017-04) Zaidan, Úrsula Ramos; Corrêa, Paulo Cesar; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Cecon, Paulo RobertoO café é um produto agrícola que tem seu valor de mercado ajustado de acordo com a qualidade final da bebida, que pode ser influenciada por vários fatores, tais como: fatores ambientais e variedade. Diante disso, objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar os efeitos da orientação da encosta da montanha, altitude e variedade da planta, sobre a qualidade potencial dos cafés produzidos na região das Matas de Minas (entre altitudes que variam de 600 a 1200 m). Frutos de café (Coffea arabica) das variedades “Catuaí Vermelho” e “Catuaí Amarelo”, provenientes de 14 municípios da região, foram colhidos manualmente no ponto de maturação fisiológica, os quais foram processados, beneficiados e armazenados. Em seguida foram feitas análises descritivas qualitativas por Juízes Certificadores, pelo teste de degustação segundo critérios da Brazil Specialty Coffee Association. Por meio da análise sensorial da bebida, foram atribuídas notas aos atributos de qualidade dos cafés objetivando classificá-los de acordo com a influência dos fatores do ambiente e da variedade. Para análise das notas foi adotada a “Estatística Descritiva” e o “Método de Tocher”. A partir dos resultados obtidos, pode-se observar que os fatores ambientais e a variedade não exercem influência sobre a qualidade da bebida de forma isolada, todavia, contribuem de forma conjunta para formar as características da bebida produzida na região. A maior pontuação média foi obtida pela combinação de fatores, variedade “Catuaí Amarelo” estrato de altitude abaixo de 700 m e encosta Noruega da montanha, mostrando grande potencial de expressão da qualidade sensorial da bebida.
