On the upcoming October 09, Monday, Embrapa Pantanal representatives are going to Puerto Suarez, Bolivia, to participate in ExpoPantanal – a multisector exhibit fair that gathers audiences and institutions from Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. The event takes place at Zona Franca, Comercial, Industrial y Maquiladora Puerto Suárez (ZOFRAMAQ) from October 06 to 15. The program includes the international seminar “Bolivia – Brazil Agricultural Technology Transfer”, with lectures by researchers from the Pantanal research unit, an event partner, and several other institutions from participating countries at the El Pantanal Hotel Resort (in Arroyo Concepción, Bolivia). Among the topics discussed during the seminar are cattle farming in Brazil and in Bolivia, animal health, family farming, oilseeds, productivity in the fields, and other themes. Embrapa Pantanal will be represented by the general head, Jorge Lara, and by the researchers Raquel Soares and Alberto Feiden. Soares will be responsible for a lecture that is going to address the characteristics of the Pantaneiro, a cattle breed that is locally adapted to Pantanal climate conditions. Feiden is going to discuss activities aimed at perfecting family farming production processes and the partnerships established in the area with institutions in the neighboring country. Both lectures will be given in the evening of October 09. The event aims at building bridges for the exchange of information, technology transfer, and the exchange of experiences between the countries. Besides the seminar, there will be business roundtables, discussion forums, cultural presentations and other activities.
