The project is a continuation of the genetic improvement program whose goal is to develop and launch fusariosis-resistant pineapple cultivars with fruit quality to ensure the supply of the domestic market with environmentally safe production and less application of agrochemicals.Three innovation solutions are proposed: genotypes with the potential to expand the genetic base of cultivation in Brazil, cultivars adapted to the main production hubs; and a large-scale production system to provide hea Status: In progress Start date: Wed Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2021 |
The research analyzed the environmental performance of the canola agricultural production process used in the southern region of Brazil. The Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) considered both the canola grain production process (agricultural stage) and the processing of grains (industrial stage) to produce oil and bran, the main products in the chain.Unprecedented for rapeseed (Brassicanapus L. var. oleifera), the data collected accounted for all inputs of materials and energy for the production, use an Status: Completed Start date: Sat Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
The objective is to establish a pilot network project for the production and distribution of manivas-cassava seed, with genetic and phytosanitary quality, to serve beneficiary families of the "Brazil Without Misery Plan" and to promote the increase of the supply of cassava to the Self-consumption of these families.

No Brasil, um grande número de agroindústrias familiares elabora suco de uva ‘caseiro’ ou ‘colonial’ pela técnica da panela extratora por arraste de vapor. O produto é vendido em feiras de agricultura familiar e para consumidores do entorno de cada propriedade produtora, contribuindo, de forma importante, para a renda da pequena propriedade rural. A referida panela, embora seja um equipamento de preço bastante acessível, resulta na elaboração de suco com incorporação de água, proveniente do vapo ...

The tobacco production in southern Brazil is an activity of great economic and social relevance and is strongly linked to the context of family farming. Although this activity is recognized for its economic relevance, there are opportunities for the incorporation of knowledge and good agricultural practices (GAP) that contribute to increase the sustainability of the tobacco producing property. For this reason, efforts have been made in many producing countries in order to guarantee the well-b ...Status: Completed Start date: Tue Oct 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
Water´s storage and management are a great challenge for the scarce rural population that inhabits the brazilian semiárido. The adoption of hydric social technologies to produce drinkable water for both human and animal and the food production contributed with a better life quality for the region´s families. The underground dam is one of the technologies that has helped many poor families, producing food and giving back their dignity. However, due to the enormous soil diversity in the semiárido, ...

Araucaria angustifolia, also known as the Paraná pine, is the symbol of southern Brazil and aunique component of the mixed ombrophile forest (also known as Araucaria forest) that is partof the Atlantic Forest biome. After heavy logging in the twentieth century, this species wasincluded on Brazil's official list of threatened flora species, which significantly diminished itsuse in economic activities, as well as scientific studies of this species. Recent scientific researchhas investigated ways f ... Status: Completed Start date: Tue Dec 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2020 |
