CONTEXT: A challenge facing the livestock sector is improving beef production while mitigating negative environmental impacts. Analyzing its past productive and environmental performance may elucidate strategies for improving efficiency of grassland-based systems and identify future research and public policy priorities.
OBJECTIVES: Describe past and current dynamics and assess potential future scenarios of the Uruguayan beef production sector, considering historical beef production growth rate (kg carcass), partitioning in land use by the cattle sector (ha), cattle animal performance (kg carcass animal− 1 year− 1) and stocking rate (animal ha− 1) since 1966.
METHODS: We quantified drivers of beef production and total enteric methane (CH4) emissions and modeled the gap between their current and potential levels by applying new management practices at country scale. Potential systems included reduced age of replacement heifers at first pregnancy and greater cow weaning rates.
Results AND CONCLUSIONS: Cattle land area expansion and increased animal performance explained most of beef production growth (33 and 52%, respectively), while stocking rate had a negligible effect. We identified that recent beef production was driven by improved pasture area (R2 = 0.42), which represented only 21% of cattle area. This disproportionate effect showed a dependency of national beef production on improved pastures. The current weaning rate (65%) and the number of replacement heifers that have first pregnancy by 36 months of age (480,000 heads) revealed a national inefficiency, falling short of the potential of grazing systems based on native pastures. When concepts and principles of ecological intensification of native pasture grazing systems are applied optimally, weaning rate can be increased from 65 to 85% and age of first pregnancy reduced from 36 to 24
months, decreasing national enteric CH4 emissions by 13%. The weaknesses identified in the national beef production sector support re-focusing research, public policy, and echnologies applied by farmers to shift the paradigm of beef production to greater ecological intensification based on native pastures. In this way, it will be possible to increase beef production and mitigate environmental impacts of grazing systems.
SIGNIFICANCE: We demonstrate that re-focusing beef production from improved pastures to native pastures, while enhancing their management, will mitigate the CH4 emissions of the beef sector at large scales and will underpin the annual beef production, leading to a stable annual production, reducing the dependency on improved pasture area and providing ecosystem services.

ABSTRACT.
The strawberry fruit production in Uruguay is mainly dedicated to the internal fresh market but there are some experiences of exportation to regional and off shore countries. The crop is done in the annual hill system without the use of methyl bromide and the mean yield is about 40 t/ha. Main crop areas are located in the Northwest (Salto, 31°S) and in the South (San José, 34°S). The winter and early spring fruit production is obtained in the Northwest area with crops under low and high tunnels using short day cultivars like 'INIA Yvahé', 'INIA Arazá' and 'Earlibrite'. Transplants are locally produced in this area in greenhouse nurseries. The Southern area produces fruit in the spring with open field crops using short day cultivars like 'Camarosa' and 'Camino Real' and in the summer with day neutral cultivars like 'Aromas' and 'Seascape'. Frigo-transplants of the introduced cultivars are imported from Spain and USA. Problems of adaptation to the climatic and agronomic conditions of Uruguay have been observed in the introduced cultivars. This was translated to low yields, low fruit quality and susceptibility to diseases prevalent in the regions of production. For that reason the Strawberry Breeding Project of INIA Uruguay aims to obtain cultivars adapted to the different environments of the country. The products of this breeding project, initiated in 1992, are the cultivars 'INIA Arazá', released in 2002, with high early yield and resistance to anthracnose; 'INIA Yvahé', released in 2004, with early yield and excellent flavor, resistant to anthracnose; 'INIA Guenoa', released in 2007, with high yield, excellent fruit quality, better adapted to high tunnels and resistant to powdery mildew; 'INIA Yvapitá', to be released in 2008 for open field crop, recommended for organic production and processing, resistant to several soil, foliage and fruit diseases. New selections are in different stages of evaluation. A method of propagation was adjusted to ensure appropriated quality of the transplants. MenosABSTRACT.
