| Abstract | |
The rapid expansion of Brazilian agriculture, although centered on productivity gains, has brought challenges to the forefront, influencing food systems at national, regional, and global scales. Looming threats such as climate change, deforestation, and land degradation cast shadows of uncertainty over the sustainability and resilience of Brazilian agriculture. This paper explores how technological and non-technological drivers can further strengthen sustainability pathways in Brazilian agriculture. Achieving the vision of strengthened sustainability pathways necessitates a reevaluation of the multifaceted governance measures that harmonize technological advancements with environmental and social responsibilities. The integration of science, innovation, and governance is essential, but it additionally requires novel approaches, such as interdisciplinary dialogue, public-private partnerships, and international collaboration to effectively move towards meaningful sustainability outcomes at multiple levels.
