Agriculture is responsible for about 30% of the Brazilian Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and some of the challenges of the sector include: reducing production costs, increasing productivity and minimizing environmental impacts. In this scenario, the adoption of inoculants based on the process of biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is quite welcome, once it is the only natural biological process of obtaining nitrogen, in contrast with the use of nitrogen fertilizers that release about a ton of gree

In Brazil, the milk chain has about 4 million workers, with a herd of 23 million milked cows and national production estimated at 33.5 billion liters. The project results will contribute to addressing the general problem of “low efficiency of milk and beef production systems due to seasonality in forage production or forage gap period”, and the specific problems of the “need for forage cultivars for grazing”. that can minimize the effects of the feeding deficiency caused by the forage gap and pr
