In the state of Mato Grosso, family farming has been gaining more and more attention. The state's Research, Assistance and Rural Extension Company (Empaer) held a Technical Meeting on August 5 aimed at family farmers in the municipality of Cáceres.
The event took place at Empaer's regional center for research and technology transfer, with presentations of new technologies and services for family farmers through lectures and demonstrations on production units. Through the event, Empaer tried to reach not only family farmers but also students, technicians, researchers and others.
Thanks to events like the one held by Empaer and other initiatives across Brazil, family farming is receiving not only prominence in the agricultural landscape but also research and support that give it improvements, whether in production or in management, so that it can stay in the market competitively against producers who have access to a wide range of resources that family farmers lack.
