Introducción; En Uruguay existen 2717 establecimientos lecheros remitentes a planta, con una producción anual de 2026 millones de litros, de la cual se exportan un 70%; siendo vital mantener la calidad sanitaria de la leche con el fin de cumplir con las normativas internacionales y obtener un producto de buena calidad.

Abstract:Eared doves (Zenaida auriculata) are responsible for substantial losses in cereal and oil crops as well as in dairy and feedlot production in the southern cone of South America. Various strategies have been shown to be effective in reducing damage at the farm scale, but in some scenarios, it is necessary to also incorporate population control methods due to excessive bird population size. An alternative approach to reduce pest bird populations is the use of contraceptive methods, minimizing the impact on the environment and non-target populations.

Abstract:Glyphosate is the most used pesticide around the world. Although different studies have evidenced its negative effect on honey bees, including detrimental impacts on behavior, cognitive, sensory and developmental abilities, its use continues to grow. Recent studies have shown that it also alters the composition of the honey bee gut microbiota.

ABSTRACT. Most of Uruguay land is under agricultural use, which remarks the necessity to think about lands with productive systems within a general strategy for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services preservation. Extensive livestock production is able to reach this objectives but needs to improve productivity for not to compromise economic viability. We present a model for evaluate sustainability in a co-innovation work with 16 pilot farms distributed all around the country.
