Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR). Centro de Ciências Agrárias (CCA) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
He holds a degree in Agronomic Engineering from Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho - FEIS/Ilha Solteira (1994), a Master's degree in Agronomy (Irrigation and Drainage) from the same university, FCA/Botucatu (1997), a Ph.D. in Agricultural Engineering from Universidade Estadual de Campinas - FEAGRI (2002), a sandwich Ph.D. from Utah State University (2000), and a postdoctoral degree in Water and Soil Engineering from Universidade de São Paulo - ESALQ (2006) and University of California - UC Davis, Davis, USA (2017). He is currently a Full Professor at the Center for Agricultural Sciences (CCA) at UFSCar - Araras/SP, where he teaches courses such as Applied Environmental Hydrology in Watershed Management, Irrigation and Drainage, Water Relations in the Soil-Plant-Atmosphere System, and Wastewater Treatment and Application. He is also a professor and vice-coordinator of the Graduate Program in Agriculture and Environment (PPGAA/UFSCar). He has expertise in Agricultural and Environmental Engineering, with a focus on Irrigation and Drainage, and specializes in Water and Soil Engineering, including wetted bulb design, drip fertigation, enhanced release fertilizers, and water reuse in agriculture.

Every activity developed by human beings needs some form of use of natural resources, in which available water resources have been compromised in recent decades. One way to mitigate environmental impacts is to seek alternatives for their supply. Thus, a measure that has been disseminated is the use of treated domestic sewage in agriculture, which can guarantee an increase in production du…
The disproportionate distribution of natural resources and the demand for water and nutrients in agricultural systems makes it important to search for alternative sources of supply, so a measure that has been diffused is the use of treated domestic sewage in agriculture, which can guarantee an increase in production due to the greater contribution of nutrients and organic matter. Allied t…
This proposal aims to study the feasibility of reuse of treated water from the pilot plant wastewater treatment by compact bed of roots as an alternative source of water and nutrients in the hydroponic cultivation of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L). The experiment will be performed Agricultural Science Center-UFSCar in Araras, SP, in a greenhouse. The crops will be from October to December 201…

The inappropriate management of plastic waste used in agriculture associated with the high need for soil fertilization has led to several negative impacts on the environment. Alternatives to reduce these problems have been carried out with materials that use fertilizer efficiently and without generating waste. The objective of this work is to propose a film composed of Alg/Kc/CNF that has…
The lack of efficient alternatives for fertilization in greenhouse that do not cause salinization of the soil as is the case of fertirrigation is evident, because of this new technologies are introduced to meet the needs of the agricultural market. The objective of this work is to test the efficiency of fertilizer polymers compared to fertigation in the tomato culture, using moisture sens…
The lack or excess of water during the management of the tomato crop can be detrimental to the production. Thereby, the search for technologies that improve crop productivity and reduce the volume of water applied during the crop cycle is essential for agricultural production and for the environment. The objective of this work is to evaluate the irrigation deficit in yield of Grape irriga…

The Southern Sierra Critical Zone Observatory (SSCZO) is a community platform for research on critical-zone (CZ) processes along a steep elevation transect where precipitation grades from dominantly rain to dominantly snow and ecosystems range from oak savannah biomes to subalpine forests. Spatial gradients in CZ properties and processes permit substitution of space for time, making the S…
Currently the study of agricultural techniques has sought better management practices for agriculture, to increase the productive potential, but without changing the characteristics of the production. The technique of TDR have been outstanding for this purpose due to its ease of use, fast and accurate information gathering, non-destructive method, and is not influenced by texture, density…
