Farmers Have Begun to Adopt New Technologies Available for Planting
Gustavo Branco, director of Haifa South America, reported that farmers in Brazil are significantly adopting the new special technologies for fertilizers and fertilizers available.
He says: “We are talking about productivity of more than double digits compared to conventional fertilizer use. This leads to better financial yields, as the producer does more with less and there is no waste”. In the executive’s opinion, in the current scenario with the war between Russia and Ukraine, special fertilizers and fertilizers have been highlighted as alternatives to traditional products.
“When we talk about special fertilizers, we are talking about kilograms and not tons, which improves logistics, storage, and availability”, he concluded.
