We need to raise funds for the continuity of the research initiated and to achieve the targets set for the 2017/18 biennium. Therefore, we set some priorities:
When: April 2017
Where: Barcelona / Spain
How can we allocate their contributions.
The funds received will be used to cover the costs related to the shipment of three engineers / researchers from our Brazil team in Spain (flights, accommodation, transport and food).
In addition, your contribution will cover the costs of editing the e-book product platform Cerrado Maguey - CAPACITIES OF A NEW AGRICULTURE (English and Spanish). More than 120 pages with text, photos and figures, without any publicity.
PRESENTATION OF RESULTS OF RESEARCH in the 2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY, DEVELOPMENT, AND PROTECTION (ICESDP'17)
The paper "BIOMASS OBTAINED FROM MAGUEY DO CERRADO: APPLICABILITY OF A NEW CULTIVAR" has been accepted for presentation and publication in the proceedings of ICESDP'17.
The goal of ICESDP'17 is to gather scholars from all over the world to present advances in the relevant fields and to foster an environment conducive to exchanging ideas and information. This conference will also provide an ideal environment to develop new collaborations and meet experts on the fundamentals, applications, and products of the mentioned fields.
Themes:
Maguey Potentials
Biomass and biopolymers
Product presentation
Caloric, nutritious and functional sweetener;
distilled
Food fibers
Green container
Possibilities for replication of experience
Urban plantation
Plantation Agroecology
The publication proposes agroecological solutions to produce more efficient crops and with lower water and energy costs. Is a proposal of technological innovation for the reproduction, establishment, production and full use of Maguey do Cerrado - a morphological variety of the salmiana section of Agave cultivated in Brazil.
Starting from the field of study of territorialities, with emphasis on urban agriculture and family agroecology, encompassing the knowledge areas of biotechnology, process engineering and industrial development.
