Forest systems are part of an important land-use strategy aimed at the maintenance of biodiversity, at the commercialization of wood products and other products, at quality of life and at environmental services such as carbon fixation. The greenhouse gas emission flows and the carbon stocked in the forests are indispensable information, and their estimation may support public policies on development and sustainability. Project GeoSaltus focuses on the use of geotechnologies for the developmen

The agribusiness production chains represent 26.4% of Brazil’s GDP, 36% of exports and 39% of the jobs generated in the internal market. The generation of geospatial information about the Brazilian agriculture supports decisions and public policies at different levels and scales. The System for Observation and Monitoring of Agriculture in Brazil (SOMABRASIL) aims to organize and integrate census data and information generated from satellite images into a single database for the whole country, fa

Maps, zoning and monitoring resources are examples of geospatial information which are daily used for planning, managing resources, decision making, and for public policies. Geoinformation are of strategic importance for several sectors, including for strengthening Brazilian agriculture and for transferring the knowledge produced by Embrapa to society. To quickly produce, organize and make geospatial services and data available, Embrapa needed an up-to-date, modern data infrastructure, to ena

Brazil annually consumes 10.5 million tons of wheat, half of which is produced in the country, which entails an approximate outlay of 800 million dollars in wheat imports. The high cost of production and the difficulties in the obtention of cultivars with technological qualities that meet market requirements are among the main limiting factors for the Brazilian wheat production chain. Out of all the cultivars available from all Brazilian breeders, about two thirds were created from germplasm

This project aims to evaluate the productive potential of explored forest areas after one cutting cycle (30 years) and propose a forestry management system for the second cutting cycle in the Amazon. Technological ability and floristic variety of arboreal species will also be evaluated, in areas previously submitted to forest exploration 30 years ago (Tapajós National Forest). This project, headed by Oriental Amazon Embrapa in partnership with Federal Rural University of the Amazon, aims to deve ...
