Apply Bem Program celebrates 15 years during Agrishow

The Engineering and Automation Center (CEA), of the Agronomic Institute (IAC), an entity of the Department of Agriculture and Supply of the State of SP, invites you to the official event to celebrate 15 years of activities of the Aplique Bem Program.

A public-private partnership between CEA-IAC and the Indian company UPL, Aplique Bem is focused on training small to large producers to correctly use agricultural pesticides or agrochemicals, in addition to extracting the maximum productive potential from these inputs. The program is aimed mainly at small and medium-sized producers and training takes place directly on the properties.

Since it was launched in 2007, Aplique Bem has carried out 3,9 training sessions, inside and outside Brazil. The number of benefiting producers reaches more than 75 thousand. The team responsible for executing the program, trained at CEA-IAC, covered 15 million kilometers in 1 years – equivalent to three trips between the Earth and the Moon –, reaching more than 1 cities.

During the event, the coordinator of Aplique Bem, researcher Hamilton Ramos, also director of CEA-IAC, will be available.
