As important food and feed crops, maize and soybean occupy an important position in global food security and agricultural production. Optimizing soybean and maize cultivation patterns and strategies in China and Brazil, major producers, is of scientific and practical importance. This project aims to collaboratively and rapidly acquire data on canopy distribution, unit coverage, plant heig…
Projections of world population show that there will be a greater demand for food, fiber and energy, requiring an increase in agricultural productivity, cost reduction and sustainable use of natural resources. In addition, factors such as changes in final consumer market habits, increased incidence of extreme weather events, the longevity of the urban population and the labor shortages in…

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] has been an important source of protein for 5,000 years and, since the 1950s, food industries have extracted protein from soybeans to develop varieties of foods and food ingredients. The impacts of global changes, such as the increase in the concentration of CO2 and/or increase in temperature, will affect the development and growth of soybean. Complex mode…
The Education and Knowledge Diffusion Plan foresees seven fronts of action, with their respective activities: 1) Attracting young people to scientific careers related to digital agriculture, aimed at awakening the interest of high school and university students through research activities in the CCD-AD/Semear Digital; children, generally the children of farmers, through scheduled school v…
The universe of rural producers to be worked on in the initial CPAD project will consist of small and medium-sized rural properties located in Agro-Technological Districts (DATs). The selection of DATs will be guided by a prior choice of locations in the Brazilian territory, distributed in Major Regions: five DATs in the state of São Paulo, one in the state of Minas Gerais, totaling six i…

The search for alternative sources of energy has shown to be a global demand. Motivated by its concern for climate change and the depletion of natural resources, the world market has demonstrated interest in the study and adoption of alternative renewable sources of energy. One possible alternative is the use of forest biomass.In this context, it is necessary to carry out studies that aim…
Ethylene is one of the most important plant hormones and has different functions in different plant species. One of its most frequents attributes is relate to climacteric fruit ripening and its action over plants in stress condition. However, this last attribute has been questioned once researches have shown varied results related to type and level of stress which releases ethylene in pla…
