The Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025 arrives in Juazeiro, Bahia, from October 15 to 18, gathering researchers, public managers, and representatives of social movements at the Multi-Events Complex of the Federal University of the Valley of São Francisco (UNIVASF).

The event, which will be held in-person, is solidifying its position as one of the most important spaces for the exchange of experiences and discussions on sustainable production in the country, according to a news article published.

Conab (National Supply Company) is present at the meeting with its Director of Agricultural Policy and Information, Sílvio Porto, reinforcing the institutional commitment to agroecological practices and integrated public policies.

Public Policies and Organic Production Strengthen the Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025

The panel with Sílvio Porto aims to discuss the formulation and implementation of public policies focused on the sustainable management of agroecosystems and the conservation of biodiversity.

Conab operates directly with strategic programs such as the National Policy on Agroecology and Organic Production (PNAPO) and the National Food Supply Plan “Food on the Plate” (PLANAAB).

These initiatives are essential to bring family farmers closer to food security policies, ensuring that the population has access to healthy and pesticide-free food.

The presence of Conab’s Regional Superintendent in Bahia, Emanuel Carneiro, and master’s students from the Company in the Rural Extension course, enhances institutional representation at the event.

The Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025 thus becomes a conducive environment to strengthen cooperation networks and broaden the dialogue among universities, government, and civil society.

Biodiversity, Food Security, and Rural Sustainability in Focus

In addition to discussing biodiversity and rural sustainability, the Brazilian Congress of Agroecology 2025 will address the challenges faced by public policies such as PNAPO and the National Food and Nutritional Security Policy (PNSAN).

Among the main obstacles are institutional discontinuity and budgetary constraints, which hinder the full implementation of actions related to agroecology.

Even in the face of these challenges, the event reinforces the importance of integrating programs and actions in rural territories.

The proposal is to consolidate sustainable practices that balance production, environmental conservation, and food justice.

By actively participating in this process, Conab reaffirms its mission to promote food supply in a fair and sustainable manner, strengthening the link between the field and society.

Biodiversity, Food Security, and Rural Sustainability in Focus

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

China’s neighbor surprises the world by hitting 1,200 seconds in a hypersonic missile engine test and sparking a military alert.

With a 1.6-liter 118 hp engine, a 460-liter trunk, and a 7-inch multimedia system, the Nissan V-Drive 2026 is sold in Mexico starting at 339,900 Mexican pesos and relies on low maintenance costs to win over app drivers, fleet owners, and self-employed professionals.

Fuel cells that use bacteria on the seabed could eliminate expensive battery replacement and keep submerged sensors working for much longer.

While countries compete for land for solar panels, Switzerland unrolls solar panels like a carpet between the tracks of an active railway.
