Satellite monitoring identifies irrigated areas based on soil moisture

Irrigation is used as a tool for regional development in Brazil and other countries. New method maps the annual variation of effectively irrigated agricultural areas based on soil moisture indices.These indices are obtained from freely accessible, medium-resolution images from the Sentinel-2 satellite. The method also uses Artificial Intelligence (AI).This new

Bacaeri-Boi Teca System

The Bacaeri-BoiTeca System is an ILPF (Integrated Crop-Livestock-Forestry) production model that integrates teak ( Tectona grandis ) as a supplementary income source , while maintaining livestock farming as the main component of the system. The focus is on sustainable intensification , expanding teak cultivation in beef cattle farming areas without replacing monoculture pastures with planted forests . Teak trees, when planted in the appropriate arrangement and managed correctly

Addressing vulnerability and achieving resilience.

Adapting agriculture to the effects of climate change goes beyond simply withstanding extreme events . It involves building new production pathways, regenerating territories, and innovating in our relationship with nature. To achieve this, adaptation needs to be comprehensive: from genetics to soil, and from biodiversity to landscape management, encompassing technical knowledge, local expertise,
