What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Horticulture, Randomized block design, Upland rice and Crop yield. His studies in Cultivar, Sowing, Cover crop, Dry matter and Intercropping are all subfields of Agronomy research. His study on Cover crop also encompasses disciplines like

  • Straw which intersects with area such as Mulch,
  • Tillage which intersects with area such as Lime, Soil pH and Soil management.

His Intercropping research incorporates elements of Brachiaria, Forage, Pasture and Monoculture. His Horticulture research includes elements of Mineralogy, Botany and Human fertilization. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Randomized block design, Animal science is strongly linked to Oxisol.

  • Horticulture (25.94%)
  • Randomized block design (21.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Agronomy (71.67%)
  • Forage (9.56%)
  • Intercropping (11.95%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Carlos Alexandre Costa Crusciol mostly deals with Agronomy, Forage, Intercropping, Magnesium and Cover crop. Carlos Alexandre Costa Crusciol conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Agronomy and Upland rice through his research. His Intercropping study also includes fields such as

  • Tropical agriculture which is related to area like Fodder and Perennial plant,
  • Megathyrsus maximus which intersects with area such as Monocropping,
  • Silage, which have a strong connection to Panicum, Mulch and Brachiaria.

Within one scientific family, Carlos Alexandre Costa Crusciol focuses on topics pertaining to Silicon under Magnesium, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Nickel and Nuclear chemistry. His Cover crop study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Straw and Germination. His research integrates issues of Randomized block design and Yield in his study of Sowing.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of growth-promoting bacteria on soybean root activity, plant development, and yield (15 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Fertilizer

Carlos Alexandre Costa Crusciol focuses on Agronomy, Magnesium, Forage, Intercropping and Agroforestry. Agronomy is closely attributed to No-till farming in his study. His Magnesium research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Yield, Zea mays, CORN GRAIN and Yield.

He has researched Forage in several fields, including Perennial plant, Fodder, Tropical agriculture and Growing season. The Intercropping study combines topics in areas such as Soil pH and Lime. He has included themes like Monoculture, Livestock, Deforestation and Conservation agriculture in his Agroforestry study.
