Thus, the sector involves a chain of activities that includes agricultural production itself (growing crops such as coffee, cotton, livestock, etc.), the demand for fertilizers and nutrients, the development of agricultural machinery, the industrialization of field products (such as oils, cigarettes, instant coffee, among others), and the development of technologies to streamline all these activities.
