To determine the growth response of coffee (Coffea arabica L.) seedlings to different doses of Enerplant®, research was conducted in a nursery in Holguín Province, Cuba, during the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 growing seasons. The effect of four doses of the biostimulant (1, 2, 3, and 4 ml ha⁻¹) plus a control without application was evaluated in a completely randomized design with 10 replicates. Height, stem diameter, leaf area, and dry weight were measured, and the seedling quality index was calculated. The results showed that the application of Enerplant®, regardless of the dose, significantly increased height, leaf area, and dry mass compared to the control, although no significant effect on stem diameter was observed. Using a linear discontinuity model for leaf area, a dose of 1.39 ml ha⁻¹ was determined to be the most suitable for optimizing the physiological quality of coffee seedlings in the nursery phase.}, }

This study aimed to assess the level of knowledge about coffee cultivation among producers in three municipalities in southwestern Granma (Pilón, Media Luna, and Campechuela) to identify training needs. A 10-item questionnaire was administered to 39 participants (farmers, technicians, and officials), evaluating aspects such as propagation, regulations, and agronomic management. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha (α = 0.701) and factor analysis (KMO = 0.629), which identified three components explaining 65.5% of the variance. The results showed acceptable knowledge of agricultural practices (Component 1), but limited knowledge of regulations and development programs (Components 2 and 3), especially in Media Luna. It is concluded that, although the instrument was reliable, training in regulations and planning needs to be strengthened, with emphasis on areas with lower performance.}, }

The objective of this study was to determine carbon stocks and their projections in the forest heritage of the UEB Santo Domingo, Villa Clara Agroforestry Company. Different ecosystem components (soil, biomass, and necromass) were assessed in various units, including established forest plantations. The results showed that soil constituted the main reservoir, accounting for almost three-quarters of the total carbon sequestered. Among the plantations, Pinus caribaea was identified as the species with the highest individual contribution to carbon accumulation. Carbon sequestration was projected to experience a substantial increase by 2032, driven primarily by continued accumulation in established plantations. It was concluded that while current technical management generates a weak contribution to sustainable management, the potential for growth is significant, highlighting the need to optimize forest management strategies to maximize this ecosystem service.}, }

The results showed that Zn, Cu, and Mn levels exceeded those reported in Colombia and Mexico, while Fe was lower. In the soil, organic matter, Ca, and Mg positively correlated with foliar Cu and Mn. The varieties exhibited significant differences: Coffea canephora accumulated more Zn, and Caturra rojo had higher Cu contents. The low foliar levels at the VI Summit indicated soil deficiencies, highlighting the need to adjust nutritional management according to genotype and local conditions. It is concluded that spectrophotometry is accurate for diagnosing micronutrients and that agronomic practices must be adapted to the specific demands of each variety.}, }

The results showed that physical properties, especially stable aggregates (correlation of 0.91*** with root dry mass), had a greater influence than chemical properties. Organic matter, P₂O₅, and pH also correlated significantly with leaf area (0.69, 0.64, 0.63*, respectively). It was concluded that substrates with high structural stability, permeability, and a low plasticity index favor root development and seedling vigor, highlighting the importance of integrating both types of properties to improve nursery production.}, }

A total of 887 individuals were collected using stratified soil monoliths (25 × 25 × 30 cm) following the TSBF protocol and taxonomically identified. The results showed three exotic species (families Glossoscolecidae and Megascolecidae), dominated by Pontoscolex corethrurus (99.77% abundance), categorized as mesohumic endogeic. Density (354 ind m⁻²) and biomass (80.25 g m⁻²) were highest in the top 10 cm of soil, associated with high organic matter. It was concluded that the absence of native species reflects anthropogenic impact, while the shade of the guamo (Inga vera) favored biomass, supporting the role of oligochaetes as bioindicators of soil quality in agroecosystems.}, }

Its focus is directed at nine model farms that will serve as a reference and generate a multiplier effect among producers in low-altitude flat areas. The project design is aligned with the general and specific objectives of the Agro-Forestry Sector Program, the Coffee Development Program for low-altitude flat areas (2016-2030) and Law 148 of 2022 on food sovereignty and security. In addition, it seeks to close knowledge gaps in coffee production in these regions. To achieve these objectives, elite clones of Coffea canephora and highly productive varieties of Coffea arabica have been used, with genes that confer resistance to coffee rust (Hemileia vastatrix Berk.). The main pests and diseases that affect the crop in these conditions have been identified, and work is being done on the reuse of local organic waste under a circular economy approach. Likewise, sustainable technologies have been defined for the production of seedlings, as well as for the establishment and management of coffee plantations. For the first time in these conditions, the optimal irrigation regime and standard have been determined, evaluating their impact on production, agricultural and industrial performance and coffee quality. In addition, work is being done on the implementation of agroforestry systems and associated crops to diversify income and generate new jobs. This approach prioritizes the inclusion of women and young people in productive activities. Finally, through training aimed at managers, technicians, workers and residents, the adoption of new technologies is promoted, guaranteeing the relevance and sustainability of the project.}, }
