Nutrient management valuation in Rondonópolis municipality in the upper Pantanal Region of South America.

This work was developed to target agricultural (crop and livestock) systems and associated wastewater management systems, linked to nutrient management. We evaluate nutrient use practices based on scientific sound methodology, applied on similar studies in many regions of the world. Therefore, the work approach we used can be replicate to other regions. The methodological strategy and results are useful information for the agriculture and environmental sector stakeholders and decision makers in Brazil, and potentially, other countries.
