Producer recorded 92,88 bags of soybeans per hectare in the 18/19 harvest

The state champion of Paraná in the 11th Maximum Productivity Challenge of the Brazilian Soy Strategic Committee - CESB, Harvest 2018/2019, in the Irrigated Category, Nero Paganini registered the mark of 92,88 bags of soybeans per hectare, on his Farm, in the municipality of Tupassi (PR). 

Paganini and technical consultant Carlos Roberto Espires also received a tribute from Plantar, on the launch night of Field Day 2019, on October 29th. “Nero is a distinguished, dedicated customer and the honor was deserved”, said the technical consultant, who is also nutrition manager at Plantar, Carlos Roberto Espires. “He is very open to new technologies and gave us space to apply specialized technical knowledge, looking at the property as a whole. That was the big difference in reaching this number.”  

Another point that contributed to increased productivity was disease control. “We work preventively and also apply precision agriculture techniques. More than making a map, we implemented a concept from planting to harvesting”, explained Espires.

This result proves that we are on the right path. “The search for high productivity begins with the construction of the soil, together with the guidance of a good professional, until the choice of seed, in addition to a lot of dedication and investment”, explained Paganini, who has been a Plantar customer for 11 years and for 8 uses the agronomic consultancy service. “I trust the professional, as he has technical and quality knowledge.” Paganini says that he developed a relationship of trust with agronomist Carlos Spires, and this made it easier to accept and invest in new developments.

For the Commercial and Marketing Manager, Thiago Bortoli, the mark achieved by Paganini attests to Paraná's great potential in soybean productivity. “Take part in Field Day and learn about the best options for your crop, in addition to the new cultivation techniques that were used by the winner, so that in the next harvest, you will see your name and that of one of our technical consultants among the winners of the Maximum Productivity Challenge of the Soja Brasil Strategic Committee - CESB”.
