Nossa Senhora Aparecida
Sustainable Production, Generation after Generation
The Fiorese Family has a long history of production in grain crops in the Brazilian Cerrados. On 2,700 hectares soybean, corn, field beans, wheat, and sorghum are produced at Nossa Senhora Aparecida. The Fioreses believe that the key to success in farming is to implement new technologies and connect social and environmental aspects to achieve better harvests. A good harvest requires healthy soil, and the Fiorese family utilizes crop rotation and phytosanitary care to protect and enhance the soil. Combined solutions such as the adoption of transgenic seeds and the responsible use of chemical, biological and cultural crop protection methods, together with the constant monitoring of pests and diseases are important tools for achieving productivity above the national average. Special care is given to the 120 hectares of native forest within the farm that is home to many pollinator species, plants, and animals.

Contributing to Environmental Impact and Greenhouse Gas Reduction
The Fiorese family’s search for excellence in farming has made science the ideal partner for an abundant harvest. In soybeans, INTACTA RR2 PRO™ technology combines three solutions into a single seed: productivity at an unprecedented level; glyphosate herbicide tolerance and protection against the main caterpillars that attack the crop. This allows for significantly less need for crop protection application and tilling reducing both the impact on the environment and carbon emissions.
