Brazil has been investing in research and technology development for the sustainability of its agricultural sector for the past five decades. In this context, the ABC Plan was established as one of the government’s tools to promote sustainable agricultural practices throughout the country.
The ABC Plan promotes the adoption, by farmers, of a set of technologies toward increasing productivity and profitability, as well as resiliency and adaptive capacity of national agricultural systems, with the integration of soil, water and biodiversity conservation strategies. These technologies have contributed to increase food production and, therefore, food safety, while maintaining almost unchanged the area under farming activity and making production systems more resilient to climate change and more efficient in controlling GHG emissions related to agricultural activities).
