Embrapa Researchers Are Constantly Honored for Their Fundamental Role in Brazilian Agribusiness.

Among them is Christiane Abreu de Oliveira Paiva, from the Soil Microbiology area of Embrapa Corn and Sorghum, who led the team responsible for identifying bacteria capable of increasing phosphorus absorption by plants. A study that was quite significant and contributes to the development of national crops.

The research results – which culminated in the launch of the commercial products BiomaPhos (Simbiose Agro/Bioma Group), Omsugo ECO and Omsugo P (Corteva Agriscience), and SolubPhos (United States, by the Simbiose Agro group) – were considered so important that it led Embrapa researcher Christiane Paiva to receive the “Agrishow 2023 Tribute” – which annually recognizes relevant efforts and contributions to Brazilian agribusiness.

This honor is awarded by Abag (Brazilian Agribusiness Association), Abimaq (Brazilian Association of Machinery and Equipment Industry), Anda (National Association for Fertilizer Dissemination), Faesp (Federation of Agriculture and Livestock of the State of São Paulo), and SRB (Brazilian Rural Society) – important institutions that recognize the relevance of researchers’ actions.

Moreover, the researcher emphasizes that the biological solutions generated through research and science have the potential to reduce costs for the producer and stimulate an entire production chain. She led a solution that brings significant gains in productivity and cost reduction for the producer.

Therefore, the tribute is a great achievement for the researcher, for Embrapa Corn and Sorghum, for Embrapa, and especially for Brazil, bringing benefits, sustainability, and advancements in the productivity of agricultural crops. The technology developed has been a significant advancement in phosphate fertilization management, significantly boosting the field in Brazil and around the world.

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

Hidden beneath a small entrance in Namibia’s underground, the largest underground lake in the world is the size of 2 football fields, 264 meters deep, and even has rare animals that survive without sunlight.
