The Innovation Network in Animal Reproduction adds skills among the different teams that work in the area of animal breeding biotechnology at Embrapa with the aim of increasing the competitiveness of animal production chains in Brazil. Among the objectives, the following stand out: creation of new technological platforms in this area, transfer of technologies generated by the component projects and consolidation of Embrapa as a reference institution for the formation of public policies related Status: Completed Start date: Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2015 |
The culture of black pepper ( Piper nigrum L.) is of great socio-economical importance in the northern states of Brazil, Pará especially. However, its production has been suffering the incidence of diseases such as the one caused by the Cucumber mosaic virus(CMV) and the Piper yellow mottle virs (PYMoV). Although these viruses have already been reported in many of the Brazilian states, there are too few studies that address the virus diseases which affect this culture. Hence, this project ...

Livestock is one of the main highlights of Brazilian agribusiness. In recent years, issues related to food safety, energy, and environmental security have been the subject of discussions. In this scenario, the increase in demand for food and at the same time the pressure of society and importing countries for sustainable production systems, which requires a paradigm shift in agricultural production systems. In this context of rapid change, increasing the livestock efficiency is essential to ensu Status: Completed Start date: Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |
In order to achieve sustainable development from STI (Science, Technology and Innovation), Pará's Innovation System (SIPI) was created, being the state's pillar of CTI. A science and technology park (PCT) in Belém (PCT Guamá) will be set up in one of the structuring actions. This project aims to contribute to SIPI's consolidation, by setting up laboratories in the strategic areas to in order to promote the state's development, with the partnership of the state's two important research institutio ...
