QUALITY OF STORAGE OF EXPRESSED MILK TO ITS DESTINATION IN THE APL LÁCTEO OESTE GOIANO

2025-02-21T14:21:54-03:00

Dairy farming in Brazil has increased significantly in the last decade, an advance that has boosted production and made the country one of the leading countries in this sector. Milk quality is strictly related to the degree of initial contamination and the time and temperature that the milk is retained after milking until processing. The hygienic conditions under which milk is obtained and stored have a significant impact on its quality, as well as on its transport to further processing in the dairy industry. The objective of this study was to analyze the growth of milk production in the state context of Goiás, as well as its consumption, and storage parameters until it arrives at the dairy for its proper processing. To carry out this study, a field research methodology was used, with interviewed producers who are included in the Western Goiás region, located in 24 municipalities. The results obtained for the total number of producers per daily production, in response to the group of researched, of a total of 450 rural producers in the dairy activity, among the small and medium producers, 276 have expansion tanks for cooling the milk in their own headquarters, in response to this, the 174 producers, who do not have their own tanks, It makes use of communal tanks for the delivery and storage of milk. Thus, milk quality, being one of the most discussed issues within milk production, good practices are necessary to ensure the safety of the consumer of the final product, and the lack of verification of reports of the portion of producers who do not receive the milk quality report, is also linked to the factors of withdrawal from the activity.

NEUROSCIENCE AND MATHEMATICAL EDUCATION

2025-02-21T14:21:51-03:00

This article explored how neuroscience knowledge can enrich pedagogical practice in teaching Mathematics, especially in the final years of Elementary School. The research problem investigated how neuroscience contributes to understanding brain development, students and to formulating effective pedagogical strategies. The study, conducted through a literature review, identified the brain areas involved in mathematical reasoning, analyzed the cognitive and emotional aspects of students and proposed pedagogical strategies based on neuroscientific evidence, such as immediate feedback, spaced repetition and gamification. The main conclusions indicate that the integration of neuroscience with mathematics education can improve student performance, promote engagement and create more welcoming and effective learning environments. The study suggests investments in teacher training and in the adaptation of neuroscientific approaches to different contexts, aiming to democratize access to innovative educational practices.

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY AS A TOOL FOR EVALUATION OF SPECIAL BEANS

2025-04-01T11:30:33-03:00

Special beans, belonging to the genera Vigna and Phaseolus, are legumes of great nutritional and economic importance, widely cultivated for human and animal consumption. The most common species include cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), mung bean (Vigna radiata), azuki bean (Vigna angularis), and black bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). The quality of the seeds of these legumes is essential to ensure the success of agricultural production, as high-quality seeds result in greater vigor and productivity. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of special bean seeds used by producers in the state of Mato Grosso. The experiment was conducted at the Seed Studies and Analysis Center (CEAS) of the University of the State of Mato Grosso, using 12 bean cultivars, with 4 replications. The tests performed included purity, moisture, thousand-seed weight, germination, emergence, tetrazolium, and electrical conductivity. The purity analysis followed the guidelines of Brazil (2009), and the germination assessment was conducted according to the specific conditions for each species. For the electrical conductivity test, the seeds were soaked in water for different periods, and the readings were taken for various combinations of seed quantities and soaking times. The experimental design was completely randomized, with data analysis performed using the Scott- Knott test and Pearson correlation analysis. Species grouping was carried out using the Tocher method and hierarchical UPGMA analysis. The research aims to provide information on the quality of seeds used by producers, enabling better practices to optimize production and ensure the quality of bean crops in the state.
