| Rio Grande do Sul (RS) has the second highest state production of milk in the Brazilian Federation. Such an activity is widespread throughout the state, involving a significant share of farmers, with great economic and social relevance for generating wealth and income and contributing to the maintenance of a significant share of the state's population in the countryside. RS is located in a region with temperate clime, which has peculiar characteristics of climate, soil, vegetation cover, cattle Status: Completed Start date: Fri Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |
| One of the largest livestock problems in Southern Brazil has been the scantiness of varieties of forage species more adapted to this region. In addition, due to global warming and the demand for increased productivity with reduced use of inputs, there is a need of studies on germplasm tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought, and the evaluation of symbiotic organisms to promote biological nitrogen fixation in grasses. Thus, this project aimed to develop improved populations of some of the m Status: Completed Start date: Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2012 |
| This component project uses a transversal approach and is responsible for the search and analysis of advanced information technologies (TIs), and their operation in order to perform more efficient simulations that deal with impacts caused by climate change in the country's agriculture. The project is linked to the project "Simulation of Agricultural Future Scenarios from the Regional Climate Change Projections" and will take a look at technology alternatives in a system of high performance paral ...

| This project's goal is to evaluate and quantify the impacts caused by global climate changes in Brazilian's most important economic cultures . For such a purpose, the input database of all the models of all the proposed projects will consist of projections or regional scenarios released by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and serve as downscalings of the global climatic scenarios. These regional scenarios will define future agricultural scenarios based in mathematical models Status: Completed Start date: Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2009 |
| The project "An Integration of Mitigation and Adaptation Options for Sustainable Livestock Production under Climate Change", known as AnimalChange, is focused on research about mitigation and adaptation options aimed at the sustainable development of animal production in Europe, North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. The program's specific goals are as follows: quantifying and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from livestock systems; assessing the impacts, adaptation and vulne ...

Amazalert was an international research project coordinated by the Alterra Institute at Wageningen University (Netherlands). Embrapa participated in the development of an Early Warning System for detecting signs of large-scale degradation of the Amazon forest, to anticipate impacts caused by climate change and deforestation. The team of scientists featured researchers from 14 research institutions in the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Austria, Germany, Bolivia and Colombia. Multidisciplinar ...Status: Completed Start date: Sat Oct 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
| The changes in climate behavior will probably bring changes to the hydrological cycle. As a result, these variations will probably affect crop development, crop production, and water consumption. Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2013 |
| The project QUALIMICRO - Implementation and Monitoring of Quality Systems in Embrapa's Microbial Collections aims to implement the corporate quality requirements in 21 collections of microorganisms from 18 research units of the Company located in several Brazilian states. The Project will guarantee the quality in the management of these collections and make them able to meet the requirements of the national and international market.

| The effects of climate change can negatively affect productivity in agricultural and forest crops,and lead to a loss of biological diversity in tropical forests. On the other hand, forests areknown to be important in removing and storing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in the soil and biomass,consume methane (CH 4 ), and have low emissions of nitrous oxide (N 2 O). Forests help regulatethe climate, provide ecosystem services, and are also related to the commitments contained inthe Paris Agreement, an int Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
| This project consistes in the development of the Uzum system for the diagnosis of diseases, pests and nutritional and physiological disorders in four temperate climate fruits: Grapes, Peaches, Strawberries and Apples. The software uses artificial intelligence to quickly diagnose possible disturbances occurring in the orchard, using a simple and direct interface. The knowledge base is generated from information and images provided by experts in each area. The system is being developed initially f Status: Completed Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019 |
