Ecological Transformation in the Harvest Plan (Plano SAFRA) and in the Family Farming Program (PRONAF) Aligning the future of the field with the targets of the New Brazil
Approximately 75% of our greenhouse gas emissions are related to deforestation and agriculture. For this reason, the sector is absolutely strategic for New Brazil's target of net zero emissions in the coming decades.
The Harvest Plan and PRONAF are beginning a new era, becoming key instruments for Brazil's commitment to sustainability and ecological transformation. The strategy is simple: cheaper credit for the best practices, taking production to a level of greater environmental balance, reduced emissions and higher value added.
Step by step, year by year, the programs incorporate new criteria, always rewarding best practices. The advances are a milestone in the construction of a greener and more productive country, based on the window of opportunity that the low carbon economy will provide to the sector.
Key Initiatives
A new path for the Brazilian field
The Harvest Plan (Plano SAFRA) and PRONAF ((National Program for Strengthening Family Farming) are not just rural credit programs. They are a statement of commitment to a Brazil that is more sustainable, productive and integrated with the ecological future of the planet. Each producer who adopts sustainable practices not only reduces costs, but also takes a leading role in a new low carbon economy, in line with the values of the New Brazil.
