The TecRede project aims to generate technologies that would, in a short period of time, the development of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) cultivation in cage systems. The project chose the tambaqui to foment the development of cage fish farming since it is a fish native to Amapá, which has favorable domestic and international market demand, with production absorption capacity. The research network intends to determine the standardization of techniques and production systems based on Good Pr ...Status: Completed Start date: Fri Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |
| The availability of water for domestic, industrial, and agricultural use is of fundamental importance to the social and economic development of the arid and semi-arid regions. In the Brazilian semi-arid region, agricultural exploration is becoming more and more dependent on irrigation. Unfortunately, with the increase of irrigated areas, associated with the inadequate management of soil and water, the progressive increase of soil salinisation levels has been observed. In addition, the population Status: Completed Start date: Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
| 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.

| The project's team aims to prospect demands based on the diagnosis and characterization of the main agrarian systems in East São Paulo - especially those linked to Family Farming - towards the joint and participatory generation of knowledge, processes, innovations, methodologies and technologies, aiming at the redesign and the sustainable management of agroecosystems based on Agroecology rules. The East São Paulo region is formed by 90 cities within the Cerrados and Atlantic Rainforest biomes, w ... Status: Completed Start date: Tue May 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2018 |
| The essence of precision agriculture resides in the analysis of spatial variability of production factors, especially that of the soil. This analysis' results, interpreted from the standpoint of economical gain and environmental benefits, should guide the use of resources in a localized form, with precision doses. For this purpose, many technologies are used, such as GPS, GIS, sensors, actuators, embedded systems, among others. In Brazil, the adoption of precision agriculture still is a small nu Status: Completed Start date: Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2009 |
| There has been increased interest in the use of techniques to collect and store rainwater in the last few decades, with funding from national and international bodies; however, the general performance of these activities at farmer level is lower than expected, and that relates to the lack of knowledge of the existence and importance of techniques to cope with semiarid conditions.

| Computation used as a tool by scientific research has revolutionized the biological sciences, as it has done with many other fields of science, and considering the exponentially increasing amount and complexity of the scientific data being generated and needing to be efficiently handled, translated, processed and communicated, new computational resources are needed for the effective treatment of all this volume of data that makes it possible to transform it into knowledge and subsequently, as th Status: Completed Start date: Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
| This project aims to propose viable technological alternatives for a competitive stockbreeding practice, making responsible use of the environment and regional resources and preserving the native flora and fauna of the Cerrado, Amazon and Pantanal. The beef cattle industry has an expressive social and economical role, being responsible for more than 6 million jobs and contributing with more than US$3 billion in the country's exportation activities. The Cerrado is currently the most important reg Status: Completed Start date: Sun Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2007 |
