ABSTRACT.- Ensuring the sustainability and circularity of mixed crop-ruminant livestock systems is essential if they are to deliver on the enhancement of long-term productivity and profitability with a smaller footprint. The objectives of this study were to select indicators in the environmental, economic and social dimensions of sustainability of crop-livestock systems, to assess if these indicators are relevant in the operational schedule of farmers, and to score the indicators in these farm systems.

La agricultura moderna convencional ha experimentado procesos de intensificación y especialización asociados a un aumento del uso de energía fósil por el incremento en el uso de agroquímicos, mecanización y riego. El microbioma agrícola es clave en la transición hacia sistemas agrícolas sostenibles. En esta sección se presentarán algunos avances de la comunidad científica en el estudio y comprensión del microbioma agrícola.

Currently, is still unclear how agriculture intensification changes the soil microbiome and soil properties with implications for plant performance. Two Uruguayan long-term field experiments (LTEs) were studied, where we measured soil physicochemical properties, plant performance and soil and rhizosphere microbiota, by high-throughput amplicon sequencing.
