Embrapa and partners present more than 30 technologies at Show Safra

Between March 18th and 22nd, during the Show Safra fair, Embrapa will present to producers in the mid-north of Mato Grosso a portfolio with more than 30 technologies that can be used on their rural properties. Alongside those licensed to sell assets, the public research company will have a team available to answer questions and guide visitors.

Among the assets that will be presented are 26 cultivars developed by genetic improvement programs in crops such as rice, peanuts, cowpea, sesame, corn, sorghum (forage, grain and biomass), soybeans (conventional and transgenic), in addition to forage crops grasses and legumes.

Embrapa will also present at the fair six second crop consortium options for direct planting systems in straw aimed at controlling nematodes, loosening the soil or grazing in crop-livestock integration (ILP).

Assets such as BioAS bioanalysis, which measures soil health, and bioinputs such as Arbolina and Auras will also be presented.

In addition to the companies licensed to sell seeds of the cultivars presented, bio-inputs and services, the ILPF Network will be present presenting the IntegraMT project, which has been implementing Technological Reference Units for crop-livestock integration in the state.

Visitors to the stand will also be able to take a virtual reality tour of a farm that uses integrated systems, such as ILP and ILPF, learning more about the benefits of the technology.

Still on ILPF, there will be a demonstration of a mobile sawmill that can be an alternative for processing, on the farm, wood produced in the integration system.

Among the partners present at the Embrapa stand at Show Safra will be Agroespecialidades, LC Sementes, Ecoserra, GranSafra, Instituto Soja Livre, Krilltech, Marambaia Sementes, Nooa, Rede ILPF, Laboratório Solos & Plantas and Unipasto. Embrapa's presence also has support from the Rio Verde Foundation.
