Tridge summary

A project in Chile, led by CIREN and FIA, is using climatic conditions projections for the periods 2035-2045 and 2046-2055 to study the potential impact on pasture productivity in the provinces of Osorno and Llanquihue, a region crucial for milk and meat production. The study aims to forecast forage situations, manage feeding under new climatic conditions, adjust cattle mass, and consider the effects of climate change on grassland seasonality and forage availability. It also seeks to incorporate new forage sources and diversify production to mitigate the expected decline in pasture productivity due to decreased rainfall and increased water deficit, dry periods, and extreme temperatures. The project aims to provide farmers with tools to monitor grassland growth in real time to help them make management decisions to reduce uncertainty in forage balances.

Sprayers - Nebulizers We manufacture in Chile Project promoted by CIREN and FIA includes an estimate of the climatic conditions projected for the periods 2035-2045 and 2046-2055 in order to know the possible scenarios to which the productivity of the prairie will be faced in the provinces from Osorno and Llanquihue. June 29, 2021.- The Los Lagos region is of fundamental importance in the national production of milk and meat, contributing 54% and 26% respectively at the country level. However, and according to the pluviometric records of the last 30 years, there has been a significant decrease in rainfall at a rate of 3.7 mm / year in the provinces of Osorno and 8.5 mm / year in Llanquihue, which could imply, on the one hand, a decrease in the productivity of the prairies close to 25%, especially in the coastal zone of the communes of Los Muermos and San Juan de la Costa, Purranque, Frutillar, Osorno and Río Negro, and on the other, an anticipation in the phenological phases of the ...
