Ex situ breeding and conservation programs have been established for endangered species with the objective of keeping populations self-sustainable and demographically stable, capable of to retain genetic diversity and avoid inbreeding depression. However, despite the success of In many of these programs, maintaining a species in captivity faces major challenges. The low number of individuals that originates the founding group and the reproduction between individuals related factors lead to the loss of genetic diversity and the increase of inbreeding in captive populations. To address these issues, some conservation programs have started to combine traditional analyzes, based on the genealogical records of the species (Studbook), with genetic-molecular approaches. This information can be used even to integrated in situ and ex situ management, which facilitates decision-making that translocations and / or the creation of priority conservation areas, and, eventually, introductions of captive animals in the wild. In this context, the present work analyzed the diversity genetics of free-living and captive groups of the black lion tamarin Leontopithecus chrysopygus, a species of endangered primate, endemic to the Atlantic Forest of São Paulo, which has been kept in captivity as an alternative strategy for their conservation, through markers microsatellites. The data demonstrate that captive management is succeeding in avoid homozygosis, since the Ho values have also remained higher than those of the He after nine generations. The values of Fis, He, Ho did not show significant differences between 2014 and 2018, however, there was a significant decrease in allelic wealth in Brazilian groups, demonstrating that loss of alleles is occurring over the generations. Kinship analyzes for captive groups confirmed the relationships described in Studbook; and the genetic structuring analyzes demonstrated the existence of a captive ex situ metapopulation. As for the groups in situ, differences were evidenced significant differences in the levels of genetic diversity calculated for populations belonging to three distinct fragments. The values observed for the inbreeding coefficient, however, were similar, showing an excess of heterozygote and probably a behavior flight tendency from inbreeding. The genetic structuring analyzes showed that the three free-living populations analyzed in this study are structured and have strong genetic differentiation. When the ex situ and in situ groups were compared, it was verified existence of population structure.

The automatically guided vehicles (AGVs) are a technology widely used in industry for the trans portation of the most diverse products. Its advantages in speed, safety and logistics in warehouses or production lines are remarkable. Despite their frequent use, the academy approaches in AGVs are, generally, towards their automation, sensoring and locomotion trails, being little explored, for example, the manufacturing of prototypes and the study and developing of their suspension. Considering the application of AGVs in outdoor environments, such as sandy terrains or snow, the present work intends to investigate three models among those available in market, being: two of them of the unit load type (one with four driving wheels and the other with six wheels, being only the central pair driving) and the third one a forklift with four wheels. More specifically, the linear vertical displacement of the set load + chassis and the angular displacement (pitch) around their gravitational center are evaluated. To reach this, the state space method was applied together with the Matlab - Simulink software in order to obtain the responses in time domain for the inputs pulse, step and ramp. Frequency stability analyses also took place and were performed with the aid of Bode diagrams and maps of poles and zeros for the three systems. All concepts were proved stable, even though the damping (defined with support on literature) was found insufficient for the four-wheel models. Finally, it was verified for all cases that the pitch has more influence on the load then vertical displacement, which brings the need of optimizing damping and stiffness coefficients to attenuate such an effect or even implement an alternative control for the vehicles’ suspension. keywords: AGV, dynamic modeling, suspension, time response, Bode diagrams, stability

The research has as main theme the music in the pedagogical work with babies and young children, being covered based on the following problem question: what are the ways and meanings that music can have in the pedagogical work with the baby and young child in the daycare center? Considering the importance of pedagogical work with music since early childhood for the formation of the human being in an integral perspective, the study concerns arose from observations of working with music in a daycare center in the period from 2018 to 2020 in the city of Salto de Pirapora, São Paulo. The nature of the research is qualitative, being characterized as a case study, and consists of the following excerpts: the first chapter brings a memorial that reports the author's musical experiences from childhood to the moment of the construction of this work; Chapter II discusses the methodology; the third Chapter presents the theoretical framework in three parts, which are about the concept of the baby and the young child today, the possibilities of working with musical language in childhood and the importance of the repertoire of children and cultures of childhoods; in the fifth Chapter the analysis of the field observations is made. The research results point to the following main verifications: it is up to educators to provide children with moments of exploration of different materials and repertoires that contemplate the breadth of cultural diversity; pedagogical planning must recognize the child as a participant, creative and creative being; in order to build a humanizing education, the music practice at school should not be based on models on how to do, but rather encourage children to carry out their own research and exploration of the sonorous and musical universe.

We evaluated functional attributes of fifteen native tree species with timber potential in multi-stratified and biodiverse agroforestry systems implanted and managed by farmers, in recent agroforestry movement, in three municipalities of Portal da Amazônia (MT – Brazil), to provide subsidies and discuss how growth conditions and management can affect the potential for wood production of these species. For this, we verified how the growth conditions (full light, half-light or shade) and the intensity of thinning and pruning management (absent, moderate, intense) affect the functional attributes related to productivity (diameter, height, volume and crown width) and stem quality of native wood species grown in thirteen agroforestry systems. Generalized mixed model and principal component analysis (PCA) were carried out to verify the relationship between the variables analyzed, the environmental conditions and intensity of management. The results showed that individuals with higher biomass increases in areas with more incidence of light. The management did not affect the stem quality for any of the selected species, and only 18% of the individuals had good stem quality. We grouped the species by their mean values of their functional attributes, and ranked the best for each management intensity. The most suitable species for areas poorly managed in relation to the stem quality were Colubrina glandulosa, Sterculia striata, Cedrella fissilis, Dipteryx odorata and Astronium urundeuva; for intensively managed areas were Schizolobium parahyba, Sterculia striata, Samanea tubulosa, Dipteryx odorata and Tabebuia Gomes ex DC. Complementary studies are needed on the effect of management and light requirement on agroforestry systems, to realize the wood potential of the species evaluated in this study.

Aging in concomitance with frailty can overload health and social assistance systems that target elderly people. Assessing them in the context of social vulnerability will contribute data for decision making and improvement of actions and proposals of the equipment that serve these individuals. The main objective of the study was to analyze the fragility of elderly people living in neighborhoods with social vulnerability and registered in CRAS in relation to life quality, cognition, health perception, support, family and social relationships. The secondary objective was to analyze the burden of family caregivers and limitations/difficulties in providing care for the elderly. This is a transversal study, observational and analytical, using the quantitative and qualitative method of investigation. The following techniques were applied: observation, semi-structured interview and use of assessment and screening instruments for biopsychosocial conditions of elderly people and family caregivers. The instruments applied to elderly participants were the Edmonton Frail Scale to assess frailty, WHOQOL – bref and WHOQOL-old to verify quality of life, The Montreal Cognitive Assesstment to track cognitive impairment, Genogram, Ecomap and Medical Outcomes Study to verify support and social support network. The instruments applied to caregiving participants were the Zarit Burden Interview to assess the caregiver's burden, Subjective Fragility to verify the frailty condition of the elderly person being cared for and three open questions about the care process. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics with the creation of frequency tables, position and dispersion measures for the quantitative. Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests or Fisher's exact test were used for comparison between groups to compare categorical variables. Qualitative data were analyzed using a content analysis method. The study included 70 elderly people registered in CRAS and 18 family caregivers of elderly people registered in CRAS. Most elderly participants (n = 70) were women (87.14%), with a mean age of 72.57 years (sd = 7.52), white (51.42%), catholic (60%), widowed (45.72%), retired (51.42%), with incomplete elementary schooling (64.29%). As for fragility, 37.20% were fragile at some level. Of the frail elderly, 47.05% had an indication of cognitive decline. There was a strong negative correlation between frailty and quality of life in the physical domain (-0.667; p <0.001) and moderate in the psychological domain (-0.586; p <0.001). In the qualitative analyzes, three categories emerged: family arrangements and relationships of elderly people, welcoming and mourning relationships and social support. Most of the participants in family caregivers (n = 18) were women (88.8%), with a mean age of 59 years (sd = 12.13), married (77.7%), without individual income (72.2 %) and unemployed (72.2). As for the frailty self-perceived by the elderly person's caregiver, 88.8% of the elderly cared for are considered fragile. Regarding the assessed overload, 66.6% had some overload. As for reports of difficulties in care, 77.7% of respondents said they felt some difficulty in caring. In the qualitative analyzes carried out from the report of family caregivers, 2 categories emerged: forms of care and difficulties in the care process. The results demonstrate that fragile elderly people have a worse quality of life, in the physical and psychological domain and need assistance to perform activities of daily living. Family caregivers were overwhelmed and had several difficulties in their care tasks. Qualitative data point to influences from the family nucleus on the quality of life of elderly people, which may influence positively or negatively. The tensions identified from the analysis of reports from elderly participants and caregivers were related to the needs arising from sociodemographic and health conditions and types of support available to meet the different demands and may contribute to the development, implementation and evaluation of public policies for this populational.

INTRODUCTION: It is extremely important that community health workers have a broad understanding of aging and the elderly. Therefore, the aggregation of knowledge related to aging and the adherence to actions in this area are of great importance for training, professional qualification and continuing education, which enables a greater bond with the elderly. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate knowledge about old age and to analyze the contribution of audiovisual material about old age, frailty and care for the elderly in a city in the interior of São Paulo. METHOD: This is an exploratory study with a quantitative approach. Seven members of the health teams from the Family Health Units participated in the study, of both sexes, under the attention of the Family Health Center (NASF) in the city of São Carlos. They were evaluated using the Palmore-Neri-Cachione instrument (Cachione, 2002) that assesses the knowledge of professionals about aging and the elderly and 3 videos were presented on specific themes of aging and the elderly, elaborated for this study by the self. The data in this study were coded and organized in a Microsoft Excel database. Descriptive statistics were used, as measures of central tendency (simple frequency, average, median, minimum and maximum). RESULTS: The average number of correct answers was 10.2%, with a scale of less than or equal to 11 being described as having little or less gerontological knowledge. The results presented in the satisfaction survey, indicate that the videos made a lot of contribution regarding the topics covered. The average satisfaction was 6.6 points. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: lack of adequate qualification on the themes explored. In addition, the construction of audiovisual material on topics related to frailty in the elderly, stereotypes about old age and long-term care has made contributions so that professionals have greater contact with the subject and, consequently, more knowledge

The Atlantic Forest is one of the most relevant forests worldwide, housing approximately 5% of all vertebrate diversity and 7% of known species of plants. There are over 350 fish species within its rivers and streams, roughly 38% of which are endemic of this biome. Such is the case of Spintherobolus papilliferus, a critically endangered tropical Characidae. S. papilliferus is defined by five autapomorphies and is currently classified as sister to all other species of the genus. Until recently, few specimens of S. papilliferus were known, mostly from sparse locations in the Upper Rio Tietê basin around the metropolitan area of São Paulo, and from an affluent of Rio Itapanhaú, a coastal stream in the city of Bertioga, SP. In 2019, specimens of S. papilliferus were registered from Rio Ribeira de Iguape basin in Juquitiba, SP, representing a new record in the geographic distribution of the species. In the present study, 17 morphometric and 6 meristic data from all eight specimens were analysed, confirming its identification. For comparison, 10 specimens from the Upper Rio Tietê and 7 from Rio Itapanhaú previously deposited in ichthyological collections were also analysed. A great overlap in the morphological data from the three populations was detected, except for eye diameter, body depth and caudal-peduncle depth. A MANOVA analysis revealed that the Ribeira de Iguape population differs significantly from the other two in these characters, showing less deep body and caudal peduncle. We suggest that these morphological differences may be due to environmental selective pressures, at least partially, since Rio Ribeira drainage is marked by fast waters which can influence the shape of fish bodies over time. In addition, we present herein a hypothesis for the disjunct distribution of S. papilliferus in the light of recent geological events such as headwater capture. Future genetic studies may bring new evidence concerning the evolution and biogeography of the genus and its species.

It is understood that racism and sexism are markers of the Brazilian social structure and play an extremely important role in the constitution of the country's inequalities and exclusions. These are social problems that historically reflect on the daily lives of the black population. One of the reflexes brought up by this question is the minority number of black students entering higher education and the difficulty of staying in universities. The project Safe Space: host and coping strategies to everyday violence of racism and sexism [Espaço seguro: acolhimento e estratégias de enfrentamento às violências cotidianas do racismo e do machismo] aimed to understand what are the impacts of racism on the daily lives of black university students, as well as their individual strategies to resist racial inequality within the academic environment . Thus, a group was formed to develop collective activities, and listening spaces for mapping and welcoming situations related to the daily racism experienced by participants. The knowledge in occupational therapy and the powers brought by human activities were used as tools for building these Collective Meetings. The project seeks to contribute to the construction of institutional proposals and policies, changes in the context of epistemic inequality, the effectiveness of affirmative action policies and student permanence and, consequently, the construction of a more egalitarian higher education environment. The present work is composed of the contextualization of racism in Brazil and Higher Education, propositions of occupational therapy that contribute to affirmative actions, reports and reflections on the experiences of Espaço Seguro in 2019

The project consisted of analyzing the fate and dilution of zooplankton assemblages downstream of the reservoirs and streams of the UFSCar Lagoa do Sino campus. We evaluated how ecological attributes change downstream of two reservoirs, in short and/or nycthemeral cycles due to vertical migration effects of zooplankton. The hypotheses tested were: (i) zooplankton dilution occurs from the reservoir, with loss of abundance and diversity; (ii) the behavior is similar in both reservoirs, because the distance is similar even with contrasting vegetation cover and velocity; (iii) the effect of the abrupt reduction of water in the stream as a disturbance does not cause an increase in diversity, due to the small size of the system in terms of flow rate and length of the lotic stretches. A total of 8 points were sampled in each section, 1 in the lentic zone of each reservoir and 6 longitudinally downstream in two sections of the same stream, as it is a cascade system. Sampling was carried out twice during one year, with collections being made every 6 hours for two consecutive days in each campaign. Zooplankton was obtained by filtering 400 liters of surface water through a conical plankton net with a 68-μm mesh opening. Limnological variables were measured by a multiparameter probe. The results show the presence of littoral taxa coming from the reservoirs, and there was an increase in littoral taxa residing in the streams. It can be concluded that there was a dilution of species abundance downstream of the streams, but richness and diversity remained stable due to the contribution of littoral taxa.

The continuous growth of the world population and the consequent increase in the demand for food and water imply the need for greater production of food and requires investment in research as more productive and environmentally responsible farming systems. The integrated system of fish and vegetable production, called aquaponia, allows the reuse of nutrients present in the residual water of fish farming and which would be discarded from the system, in the growth of vegetables, providing the reuse of water in the cultivation of fish. In this context, the objective of this research was to evaluate an aquaponics system, by determining the ideal stocking density of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, and the quality of the water and removing nutrients from the fish effluent by the vegetable Lactuca sativa L. e by the aquatic macrophyte Landoltia punctata, aiming at its best technical and productive performance. The productive performance of fish and vegetables was evaluated, as well as their nutritional quality and the quality of water and removal of nutrients through the use of macrophytes in the tertiary treatment system. The study was conducted in experimental modules installed at the Symbiotec Aquaponics Laboratory - Aquicultura e Sistemas Integrados de Produção Ltda. in Piracicaba - SP. The results showed that different densities of cultivation of Oreochromis niloticus, as well as the introduction of the macrophyte Landoltia punctata in the treatment system, did not interfere in the productive performance of the fish, evidencing the viability of raising tilapia in high density integrated (32 kg/m³) with the hydroponic lettuce system, with water recirculation. The association between the nitrifying bacteria in the biofilter, the hydroponic cultivation of lettuce and the introduction of the macrophytes Landoltia punctata proved to be efficient in treating the effluent of the intensive fish farming system and maintaining the quality of the water necessary for the cultivation of tilapia, mainly reducing ammonia levels, toxic to fish. As for the lettuce productivity, it was found that the residual water from the tilapia farming system proved able to provide sufficient quantities of almost all the nutrients necessary for the good development of lettuce in hydroponic cultivation, thus dispensing the need for supplementation with chemical fertilizers, but only the T4 treatment (114 g of feed/m2 of vegetable cultivation) showed results compatible with that expected in commercial production.

Smart materials and their applications in engineering for vibration control have been studied for some years and it has brought important discoveries and applications; in particular, one can mention piezoelectric materials, the type that has electromechanical coupling, in other words they have the ability to use their deformation to generate electric current and vice versa. In this monograph, the vibration-absorbing effect of piezoelectric material was investigated when connected to shunt circuits, which are designed to maximize energy dissipation trough the Joule effect. To meet this end, a cantiliever beam was used, simulating vibrating structure, a piezoelectric ceramic on each face of the beam, a shunt circuit and an accelerometer. Practical studies were carried out for the purely resistive case and computational studies for both purely resistive and resistive-inductive cases. The effectiveness of the piezoelectric+shunt was proven in the matter of mitigating vibrations, where, in the experimental case, there was a 25% decrease in the acceleration level. In the computational study, always considering the best vibration mitigation scenario, in the purely resistive case, the displacement after 0.2 second was half of what it was right after the impulse input (0.29 meter), while in the resistive-inductive case, after the same period of time had gone by, it was 98% smaller (0.01 meter). In terms of magnitude of vibration, the resistive-inductive scenario presented a value approximately, 83% smaller than the purely resistive case.

The coccoid green algae have simple morphology, morphological convergence and phenotypic plasticity, characteristics that hinders their correct identification. Molecular data have been insufficient for specific delimitation, and since Selenastraceae are asexual, the biological concept of species is not applicable. Thus, recent studies propose an integrative taxonomic approach, uniting several species concepts (eg. morphological, phylogenetic, physiological) for a more natural classification. Morphological analysis, although very useful and widely used, must consider phenotypic plasticity in the face of environmental variations. In this study, we evaluated the morphological plasticity of seven strains of three morphological species of Ankistrodesmus, A. densus, A. fusiformis e A. stipitatus, submitted to different conditions of temperature (23±1°C and 30±1°C), pH (7,0 and 8,5) and nitrogen concentration (1000 and 200 µM nitrate). We use cell length, width and biovolume as morphometric parameters. The control treatment was cultivated at 23±1°C, pH 7,0 e 1000 µM nitrate. The strains responded differently to different treatments, with length being the parameter with the least variation. The increase in pH significantly increased the cell width (by up to 27%) of all A. fusiformis strains, reflecting an increase up to 53% in the biovolume, while reduced the cellular width of the A. densus strain by 6%. The increase in temperature reduced the cell width in three strains of A. fusiformis, but one of then responded similarly to A. densus, increasing its width and biovolume. On the other hand, the comparison between species showed that cell length was significantly greater in A. densus, even considering the entire abiotic variation. In this way, the environmental variations altered the range of morphometric values used to identify the species, but for the selected strains, despite the plasticity, the cell length differed the species.

Ratoon stunt (RSD), caused by Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli (Lxx), is considered the main sugarcane disease for directly affecting yield crop. The disease is disseminated in all cultivars and states of the Country; still, little information under Brazilian conditions is available. The most recommended method in Brazil for RSD control are diagnostic test and thermotherapy of seedcanes. The serological diagnostic test is employed for the conventional billet planting while the PCR-based technique is preferred for the presprouted seedcane (MPB). Two combinations of thermotherapy are employed: 52°C/30min and 50°C/2h, the first higher treatment performance as well as higher failure to eliminate Lxx. Although Lxx titer may affect thermotherapy efficiency more data is sitll necessary on its importance for each of the thermotherapy combination. Also, more information is needed on early Lxx detection when contaminated seedcane is employed. Therefore, this work aimed at the following objectives: (a) determine the thermotherapy efficacy in seedcanes contaminated with different Lxx titer; (b) examine the interaction between sugacane age and Lxx detection; (c) evaluate the efficiency of serological and molecular detection technique on different ages of sugarcane. The experiment was carried out in field with six diseased treatments formed by two untreated ones with two distinct Lxx titer, and four treated with two combinations of thermotherapy and Lxx titer. Data collection started at seventh month after treatment, when sap extraction was possible and after that, monthly. Data showed: (a) thermotherapy was an important measure of RSD control, regardless the sampling age of plants, Lxx titer, and diagnostic technique; (b) both thermotherapy combination showed Lxx elimination failure; (c) Lxx was already detected in seven month plant regardless the Lxx titer; (d) failure of the thermotherapy was identified by both diagnostic techniques.

The constructed wetland (or Filter Garden) is a technology for treating domestic effluents that has been increasingly explored, with the advantage of low cost of maintenance, implementation and operation, as well as the possibility of reusing treated water for various uses. However, in a treatment system with recirculation of water directed at fish production, the evaluation and understanding of the efficiency of the aeration system used is essential to guarantee the quality of life of the fish and, consequently, a high production. Thus, the present study had as main objectives: to analyze the performance of a subsurface vertical flow filtering garden in the treatment of an effluent from a fish farming tank with water recirculation, in São Carlos, SP; and to evaluate the efficiency of the gravity aeration system established downstream of the filter garden. The analyzed filter garden has two subsystems: P (filter garden) and C (aeration cascades), where four and seven points were collected during nine days, respectively. The parameters analyzed were: pH, Temperature, Chlorophyll A, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Turbidity and Dissolved Oxygen (DO). The methodology for analyzing the limnological parameters of the filter garden consisted of comparing the data collected with the literature and performing the non-parametric tests by Friedman and Wilcoxon, with a 95% confidence level. As main results, it was observed that the effluent water returns to the fish farming tank with the appropriate temperature, turbidity, pH and DO for the fish farming according to CONAMA resolution nº 357/05 and the literature. The results of the non-parametric tests showed a significant difference in the subsystem P of the variables EC and turbidity; and in subsystem C, the variables pH, temperature and DO. Regarding the evaluation of the efficiency of the aeration system by gravity, the applied methodology consisted of the estimation of the saturation concentration (Cs), of the reaeration coefficient (Kla) and of the efficiency coefficient (K). The results obtained were compared with the specialized literature. As main results, it is noteworthy that the Cs presented the percentage of saturation recommended by the literature for fish culture. The value of the reaeration coefficient (Kla) varied between 0.03 and 0.2/min for any temperature of the effluent, framing the performance of the aeration system as superior to what is found in rapids and falls in natural waters. Finally, when comparing the results obtained from the efficiency coefficient K with the models described in the literature, it was observed that, according to the model by Barret, Gameson and Ogden, from the fifth collection on, the effluent was classified as "clean water". Following the Pomeroy model, the effluent was classified as "clean water" after the second collection. The results were satisfactory and proved the potential of the filter garden and the gravity aeration system. This work is linked to a project prepared, financed and executed by Embrapa and co-financed by BNDES, for improvement of the Brazilian aquaculture production

Introduction: In Occupational Therapy, many of the elements that make up professional identity are questioned, and there is a debate between the desire for a single identity and the perception of identities as complex and dynamic, as long as there are common foundations. In this manner, the research sought to apprehend questions about the formation of professional identity from the perceptions of occupational therapy undergraduate students. Methodology: A questionnaire was developed using the Google® form, answered by 177 students from 23 institutions. Data were systematized using Excel and Word Clouds tools. Results and Discussion: The answers to the questionnaire about the perceptions of identity were analyzed by the categories “Knowledge, Practices and Postures”, “Public, Demands and Specialties” and “Social Function of the Profession”. The use of specific terms in the search for social recognition is revealed, in addition to professional attitudes as a characterization of identity. Various groups are mentioned, related to stigmas and social vulnerabilities, the ethical-political commitment of the profession to the subjects, and its consequent marginalization. Still, the influence of paradigm shifts is related to the objectives of the practice, however, the view of the incapacity-capacity binomial is maintained. Conclusion: It was possible to outline the main characteristics of the students' perceptions, however, it is still necessary to assess their influences under different cultural and educational aspects.

This study aims to carry out a reading of the collection of short stories Bichos (1940), by the Portuguese writer Miguel Torga (1907-1995), through the ecocritics, seeking to verify aspects related to environmental criticism and its contributions to questions about the condition of human life in its natural environment. Therefore, the analysis intended here will be divided into two stages, the first being aimed at delimit the concept of ecocritic and seek its dialogues with Torguian tales; and the second, in the reflection on the construction of these protagonists, with the articulation of four concepts that branch out: Bioethics, Biocentrism, Sustainability and Topophilia. It is known that literature intrinsically has a historical relationship with social media, and nature would be no different. However, the thoughts critics of human interference in nature and its ecological implications, which originated at the end of the 18th century, were only consolidated after the second half of the 20th century, as well as its echoes in literature. The work Bichos, by Miguel Torga, has its first publication in 1940, in a period prior to the stabilization of this line, but where one can already observe an effervescent incursion of these debates. So being, in a reading proposal from an anachronistic theoretical-critical path, I opted here for the analytical bias of ecocritic, leaving the paths already outlined in its critical fortune, with presentist and neorealist emphases. It is intended, therefore, underline the interaction between animals, including humans, with themselves and its physical space, allowing reflections and questions inserted in a critical debate, political and, above all, ecological of these relationships.

Biodiversity agroforestry systems are structured by agricultural crops and tree species distributed according to their successional group in a given area, in order to enrich a given environment, which can be used for economic purposes, reducing the exploratory harmfulness of a given area. The fact that these integrated and consortium systems do not follow the standards of modern agriculture creates a certain resistance to adoption, mainly because there is little information available about their economic viability. In order to contribute to the advancement of knowledge on this topic, the objective of this work was to evaluate the financial viability of an agroforestry arrangement implemented at the Embrapa Meio Ambiente Agroecological Site, in the city of Jaguariúna. This SAF (Agroforestry System) module was inspired by the model developed at the Sepé Tiaraju Settlement (Serra Azul - SP), on the occasion of the PDRS - Microbacias II project, which had technical support from Embrapa between 2015 and 2017. The evaluated area it has 0.04 hectares, being composed of two lines of fruit trees and a line of native trees for pruning, and in all lines the trees are interspersed with a banana (Musa spp.) every four meters. One line is made up of mombaça (Panicum maximum cv. Mombaça) grass, while the other line contains fast-growing species, such as green manure, vegetables, corn (Zea mays),, beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) and manioc (Manihot esculenta).. In order to be able to compare with other studies and systems, the data were extrapolated to one hectare. With the aid of the AmazonSAF spreadsheet, cash flow was calculated for a projected period of ten years, in addition to financial indicators such as VAE, VPL, RB / C, TIR, simple and discounted Payback. Some graphs were also generated that made it possible to better visualize the dynamics between costs, revenues, labor and the influence of each product on the final results. To reduce the sensitivity of the project, which may occur due to the variation in crop productivity, market prices, seasonality, among other multiple factors that interfere in the results, new indicators were generated through the simulation of a pessimistic scenario, in which they were considered prices found in wholesale markets. The scenario that considered direct sale values presented the TIR 62.48%, VPL of R $ 467,216.02, VAE of 31,537.67, Payback of 4 years and RB /C of 2.7. In the pessimist scenario, TIR of 34.18%, VPL of R$ 232,120.01, VAE of R$ 31,537.67, 5 years in payback and RB/C 1.9. The indicators showed that, in both scenarios, the agroforestry arrangement proved not only financially viable, but is also attractive for possible investments.

The cultivation of corn has stood out among the activities of small producers, and its grain has been used in human and animal feeding, being one of the sources of daily energy for a large part of the population. The present study aimed to do a description of the production system of eight farmers in the Southwest of São Paulo State region in the 2018/2019 harvest to understand the practices carried out in the production of Creole corn seeds, through the application of a semi-structured questionnaire with personal and productive questions. The producers are part of the “Roteiro do Mileho” project and, among the farmers, 60% are male and 40% female, being distributed among the cities of Ribeirão Grande (50%), Capão Bonito (38%) and Guapiara (12%), focusing on production for human and animal consumption or for making handicrafts. The sowing, carried out mechanically and the harvest, carried out manually, occur in the months of August to September and February to March, respectively. Among the materials produced, priority was given to the production of materials with yellow seeds, with purple or white straw, in production systems, diversified considering the consortium of corn with beans and pumpkin. The greatest adversity found was the climate and it was identified that conventional cultivation practices are carried out, with little practice for the conservation and maintenance of Creole seeds. There were gaps in the understanding of the appreciation of Creole seeds, and the work carried out by entities representing workers in the process of conservation and dissemination of Creole seed knowledge is important, enabling farmers to understand more conservationist forms of cultivation.

The importance of the subject indexing activity is perceived, among others, with the exponential creation of data and information in the digital environment, made possible by the development of information and communication technologies. In times of collaborative representation of information, how the specialized literature on subject indexing contemplates indexation policy guidelines directed to the specificities of collaborative representation of indexing is questioned. In this sense, the objective is to analyze the collaborative representation of information within the specialized literature of indexation policy, in order to verify how the Brazilian Information Science discusses the implications of this contemporary practice in researches on indexation policy, with emphasis on context advances and challenges on the topic. This is an exploratory and descriptive study with a qualitative and quantitative approach, with a mapping of the literature in the form of a scientific article dedicated to the theme. Data collection was carried out at Reference Database of Articles from Journals in Information Science, with the research corpus consisting of 5 documents, which were analyzed and interpreted to obtain the current research scenario that discusses the indexing policy in times of collaborative representation of information. In addition to the scarcity of literature dedicated to the issue, there is a lack of specific recommendations for the elaboration/updating of indexing policies for collaborative environments, especially institutional repositories.
