A project is mobilizing rice producers in the Central region of Rio Grande do Sul with the aim of seeking alternatives for crop rotation in order to increase the profitability of rice farmers. The Federation of Rice Growers Associations of Rio Grande do Sul (Federarroz) has recently held agendas to reinforce the importance of the initiative.

According to the president of Federarroz, Alexandre Velho, it is a macro-drainage project to implement soy, corn, pastures in the region and improve conditions for rice cultivation, encouraging the search for solutions for the Central region. "This is something important that we are participating in, promoting this search for alternatives for producers in this region", he highlights.

In meetings held in the municipality of Agudo (RS), Federarroz spoke about the proposal with representatives of the Cooperagudo and Camnpal cooperatives.
