This study concentrates data from the agricultural pesticides and seeds sectors, in the crops of cotton, peanuts, rice, potatoes, coffee, sugar cane, cereals, citrus, beans, fruits, corn, pasture, soybeans and tomatoes. The same panel also includes strategic information on management in fallow areas during the off-season and the use of biological products.
Since its arrival on the market, Spark has completed more than 160 special studies and 300 quotas of panel studies linked to Brazilian agribusiness. The company's professionals have already conducted more than 130 interviews and traveled around 4,5 million kilometers across the country. Currently, only 23 companies present in Brazil are part of the Esomar global corporate network, including Coca-Cola and Unilever. Spark is the only Brazilian representative in the global network in the area of strategic intelligence.
