Abstract

Embrapa Instrumentation develops methods, processes, equipments, sensors and devices for the development of Brazilian agriculture. This proposal requires the use of the institutional technical reserve (RTI) that the institution has for the year of 2016, regarding to the amelioration of our research infrastructure, as following: 1) Adequacy of space for creation of the Laboratory of UV-visible Spectroscopy, including removal, installation and relocation of MDF partitions; 2) Installation of the electrical network from diesel generator unit to the electric distribution board of the compressed air compressors, which provides the demand of the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Laboratory; 3) Installation of electrical and hydraulic network from the main building to the greenhouses for plant cultivation of the National Laboratory of Precision Agriculture (LANAPRE).All the requested improvements are for general use of the Embrapa Instrumentation researchers.
