2-3 harvests per year

Integration of crops, livestock and forestry

Native pests, diseases and weeds

80% of global biodiversity is tropical

Accelerated erosion due to more rain

Greater soil variation

Diverse and variable microclimates

Varying photoperiods in longitudinal country

Born in the 70s, turned soybeans into a tropical crop

Homegrown biological industry

Uniquely complex agribusiness conditions… Gave birth to a deep science ecosystem

Universities playing key role in high level agfood R&D

ESALQ’s tech ecosystem focused on agfood in Piracicaba/SP

As the complexity increases, greater opportunities lie ahead for the application of new technologies
