About one-third of organic agriculture production in Brazil is carried out by smallholders, who seek to use low-cost organic fertilizers in their crops. In this study, we evaluated the nest refuse of leaf-cutting ants (NR) in the formulation of growi

The global textile production is mainly based on synthetic fibres like polyester, polyamide, polyacrylic and polypropylene. Recently, the washing process of synthetic clothes has been identified as a source of microplastics, plastic fragments smaller

Leaf-cutting ants are responsible for carrying out an important ecological process in neotropical ecosystems: the cycling of elements. However, although several studies have demonstrated the accumulation of organic matter inside colonies, little is k

Leaf-cutting ants perform a vital role in the cycling of carbon and nutrients in tropical ecosystems. Nests have high levels of organic matter and refuse dumps host up to two times more soil micro-organisms than non-nest soil. The increased levels of
