Preliminary data were presented by Professor Alencar Zanon\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Professor Alencar Zanon, from UFSM, a consultant at the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), presented the preliminary results of the rice\/soy rotation system project in Venezuela. This project is part of the master’s thesis by Jo\u00e3o Souza, at the Graduate Program in Agricultural Engineering (PPGEA) and the final paper by Cintia Piovesan in the Agronomy program\u00a0at the Rural Sciences Center (CCR). Both are participants in the FieldCrops Team.\u00a0<\/p>\n

UFSM Team conducted technical visits<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

On June 4 and 5, directors of the agriculture sector, farmers, and experts engaged in this project discussed the preliminary results in the technical room of the Asoportuguesa<\/em> project. This association, along with Fundarroz<\/em>, Polo Agropecuario<\/em>, Fondesoya<\/em>, and Flar<\/em>, leads the development of this initiative.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

The results, although not yet final, indicate a potential yield in Venezuela\u00a0of 5.8 tons per hectare for soy and 9.8 tons per hectare for\u00a0rice, based on the country\u2019s environmental conditions, according to Zanon. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Based on the project\u2019s results, a realistic\u00a0goal would be to achieve yields of 4 tons per hectare for soy and 8 tons per hectare for rice. This target\u00a0represents approximately 80% of the potential yield, as striving for\u00a0100% would involve higher risks and costs. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Data from over 400 crops and more than 40 producers in the states of Portuguesa, Gu\u00e1rico, and Cojedes were analyzed, covering a total surface area equivalent to 7,139 hectares. Jos\u00e9 Luis P\u00e9rez, president of Fevearroz<\/em> and director at Fedeagro<\/em>, emphasized that\u00a0there has\u00a0never been such a detailed study on this system before. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

On June 6 and 7, technical visits were\u00a0conducted to evaluate the demonstration plots\u00a0of soy in the fields\u00a0of producers Venturino Cicconetti and Aurelio Cazulani.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Zanon comments that the results of this project have contributed to the development of high-quality human resources and will position Venezuela at\u00a0the forefront of sustainable food production in global agriculture. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n
