Embrapa<\/a>)<\/p>\nMinistry of Agriculture approved 45 pesticide registrations<\/b>\u00a0of formulated\u00a0products. (MAPA, Act No. 45)<\/p>\n
FMC\u00a0launch<\/b>ed\u00a0a\u00a0malathion-based insecticide to control\u00a0coffee berry borer<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0(Hypothenemus hampei<\/i>)\u00a0in Brazil. According to\u00a0Lu\u00eds Grandeza, coffee crop\u00a0manager at FMC, \u201cResearch with\u00a0malathion in coffee fields demonstrated 5% less affected coffee grains compared to market standards, this is largely due to the shock effect, which does not generate an imbalance of other pests \u201d.

Anvisa\u00a0approves\u00a0toxicological evaluation of new formulated pesticides<\/strong>\u00a0florylpicoxamid,\u00a0from CTVA,\u00a0azoxystrobin 150 + difenoconazole 187.5 g\/L + fluindapyr 150 g\/L SC,\u00a0from FMC, and,\u00a0biciclopirone\u00a0and\u00a0tebuthiuron + biciclopirone, both from Syngenta. Anvisa also approved the toxicological evaluation of a new microbiological product (microbiological active ingredient not yet registered) based on\u00a0\u00a0Bacillus thuringiensis<\/i>\u00a0isolate cctb22 +\u00a0Bacillus thuringiensis<\/i>\u00a0isolate cctb25 +\u00a0Brevibacillus laterosporus<\/i> isolate cct492 from Total. (Anvisa)<\/p>\nTechnical subcommittees of the National Technical Biosafety Commission\u00a0authorized the commercial use of genetically modified corn for human and animal consumption with DP-202216-6 at the request of Corteva Agriscience.<\/b>\u00a0The\u00a0introduction of the traits into the plants is mediated by\u00a0Agrobacterium tumefaciens<\/i>\u00a0and the\u00a0objective is to make the\u00a0plant tolerant to the herbicide glufosinate, in addition to improving photosynthesis and plant yield. The event in question is already\u00a0allowed in other countries and according to Corteva,\u00a0\u201cDP202216 corn has previously been shown to be equivalent in composition and nutritionally to conventional corn.\u201d (Corteva; CTNBio)<\/p>\n
The Agriculture\u00a0Department of the\u00a0State of Rio Grande do Sul is monitoring HLB\/Greening using sticky traps in citrus<\/b>\u00a0groves\u00a0in 43 municipalities in the state, following more than 200 monitoring points. (Seapi)<\/p>\n
Research\u00a0performed\u00a0by Brazilian and American institutions,\u00a0such as\u00a0Embrapa and\u00a0Washington State University,\u00a0showed that the\u00a0polluting potential of\u00a0sugarcane\u00a0c<\/b>rop\u00a0in Brazil is considerably lower than previously estimated<\/b>. Nitrate and the herbicides diuron and hexazinone were used in the research. The scientific consensus was that 10% of nitrate and\u00a01% of the herbicides would be lost after application, but new tests revealed that nitrate losses are about 5%, half of what was previously\u00a0estimated. The same conclusion was not possible for herbicides due to the low diversity of the analyzed\u00a0molecules. (Embrapa)<\/p>\n
Carlos F\u00e1varo, Minister of Agriculture, highlighted the importance of reducing the use of pesticides<\/b>\u00a0and bioinputs in the opening lecture of the Forum on Bioinputs in Agriculture at the Federation of Industries of S\u00e3o Paulo (Fiesp). \u201c[…] In these 50 years, Brazil became a major food provider, we grew to 65 million hectares of agricultural areas\u00a0(140%), but productivity increased 580%. This is the Brazilian revolution, based on sustainability, respect\u00a0to\u00a0the environment and we are going to grow much more, that is why the\u00a0bio-inputs are important\u201d, said the minister. (Fiesp; Ministry of Agriculture)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Brazil has more than 600 commercial biological products registered<\/b> by the Ministry of Agriculture and it is expected to register another 100 new biological-based products\u00a0this year. A study\u00a0performed\u00a0by CropLife Brasil, together with S&P Global, projects a value of US$ 3.4 billion for the\u00a0bio-inputs\u00a0market by 2030, with a growth of 23% between 2022 and 2030.
