Recent study by Embrapa Gado de Leite (Embrapa Milk Cattle) indicates that extreme heat causes significant losses in Brazilian dairy production. According to researcher Marcos Vinícius Barbosa da Silva, it is estimated that a cow can lose up to 15 kg of milk per lactation period due to heat stress, which represents a 25% reduction in production. (Embrapa) UNIUM GROUP, INC., formed by the Castrolanda Cooperativa Agroindustrial, Frísia and Capal Cooperativa Agroindustrial cooperatives, announced an investment of more than US$ 86.47 million in the construction of a new powdered milk factory in Castro, State of Paraná, Brazil. In 2023, the group produced more than 1 billion L of milk, becoming the second largest producer in Brazil. (Unium Group) Researchers in Chile develop technology that uses a yeast strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to extend the shelf life of berries. During its metabolic process, the strain produces hydrogen sulfide, capable of preserving the quality of fruits and vegetables post-harvest and reducing losses due to spoilage. “We intend to extend the post-harvest period by up to seven days”, sayd Clara Núñez, quality analyst at Agro Frutillas San Pedro. (Agro Frutillas San Pedro) Mexico’s National Water Commission points out that the drought can cause delays in the planting of annual crops, as well as limited growth of crops or pastures and an increased risk of fires. In the northwest of the country, dams are at their lowest levels ever, with an average of 11%. (Conagua (Comisión Nacional del Agua)

We are excited to announce a new opportunity for collaboration in expanding beef traceability in Mato Grosso, the state with the largest cattle herd in Brazil. We are looking for an organisation (or consortium of organisations) interested in collaborating with us on this journey. The work would go beyond the efforts of the Sustainable Calf Production Program. Together, we aim to enhance traceability through a robust Traceability Protocol developed in 2021 by IDH and Natcap under the management of the National Confederation of Agriculture. Our goal? To enter 1 million calves from deforestation-free properties into a blockchain system by the end of 2025. Key deliverables include: ✅ A study on incentives for producers at each stage of the value chain to adopt the Protocol. ✅ Stakeholder engagement across the value chain. ✅ A roadmap for integrating traceability systems, promoting transparency without giving up full protection of strategic data for all parties.

This study was carried out based on a question raised in collaboration with the UNESP team regarding the feasibility of cultivating corn, a nitrogen-demanding crop, under Brazilian field conditions by using TSP (Triple Superphosphate) as a basal phosphate fertilizer at planting instead of granular MAP (Current practice). To explore this, we introduced the foliar application of NutriDrop MAP for its proven antistress effects, and a strain of Azospirillum brasilense provided by Embrapa to enhance nitrogen use efficiency. The goal was to evaluate the performance of this combination (TSP + NutriDrop MAP + nitrogen-fixing bacteria) under both optimal nitrogen doses and a 25% nitrogen dose reduction. This combination was tested to determine its impact on corn yield and overall efficiency, as well as its economic viability under Brazilian agricultural conditions. Results: - Grain Yield: The results showed that the combination of Azospirillum brasilense inoculation and Nutridrop MAP foliar application significantly increased grain yield in corn. The highest yields were observed in treatments where both inoculation and tMAP application were combined, particularly when 100% of the recommended nitrogen dose was applied. - Return on Investment (ROI): The profitability of each treatment was analyzed by calculating the return on investment (ROI). The combination of Azospirillum brasilense and tMAP application resulted in higher ROI compared to the control treatments, showing that this combination is economically viable for farmers. - Profit: In terms of profit per hectare, treatments with both inoculation and tMAP, especially those receiving 100% nitrogen, showed a significant profit increase compared to the control treatments. Conclusions : - Possible to start a corn season with TSP as 100% basal P fertilizer with an earlier urea application (no phytotoxicity in our case); - the combo (TSP + Nutridrop MAP + N fixing bacteria) is a good combination to improve the productivity and rentability of cropping systems; - Even under N reduction dosis the combo could be a good practice to compensate the N drop; Based on the collected data, the results are promising, indicating that this approach holds great potential. However, to fully validate these findings, it is recommended that the study be repeated across multiple growing seasons and under varying agroclimatic conditions. This would provide a more comprehensive understanding of its effectiveness and ensure the consistency of the results across different environmental settings. # TSP # Corn # Brazil # UNESP # OCP Nutricrops # N fixing # Soluble MAP

🌿 Investing in pasture recovery could make a huge contribution to improving the environmental performance of beef production in Mato Grosso, #Brazil's largest producing state. Around 18% (5.2 million hectares) of its pastures are severely or highly degraded, releasing stored carbon into the atmosphere and contributing to #climatechange. 🐄 JBS, Marfrig and Minerva are the main traders sourcing #beef from regions in Mato Grosso with large concentrations of degraded pastures, while China, Egypt and the #EU are the main export destinations. By using their influence, these companies and their primary markets can drive #sustainable practices and technological advancements in pasture-recovery efforts. 📈 Our analysis shows where to start focusing efforts. Half of all degraded pastures are concentrated in fewer than 50 municipalities, predominantly in the south. Vila Bela da Santíssima Trindade, Porto Esperidião and Itiquira have a large amount of severely degraded pastures. These municipalities are responsible for around 11% of the state’s beef exports and 7% of the degraded pasture area. 🔍 Read the latest insight by Osvaldo Pereira and André Vasconcelos: https://lnkd.in/eMVX37Sh 日本ビジネスシステムズ Marfrig Global Foods Minerva Foods

【Effect of Soybean Cultivars on the Nutrients and Consumer Acceptance of Soymilk】 Full article: https://lnkd.in/grw7m_X5 (Authored by Ilana Felberg, et al., from Embrapa Food Technology (Brazil), etc.) #Soymilk, one of the most available beverages, is recognized for its nutritional value, lactose and cholesterol free, presence of essential fatty acids, isoflavones and well-balance aminoacids. The nutritional quality, the presence of anti-nutritional factors, isoflavones and sensory acceptability of soymilk depended on the soybean variety as well as the processing conditions. This study investigates the performance of different conventional soybean cultivars, lipoxygenases (LOX)-free and other specialty cultivars regarding the nutritional characteristics, presence of anti-nutritional factors and consumer acceptance of soymilk. #Preference_Mapping #Cluster_Analysis Official submission link: https://lnkd.in/gukb6h8V
