Thematic Pillars and Focus Areas

Our academic program has been structured to offer a 360-degree view of the industry, addressing everything from soil microbiology to international market trends. The central pillars of the event are:

🌾Innovation, Genetics, and Agronomic Excellence

This pillar dives into the heart of production. We will not only analyze rice genetic improvement from a yield perspective but also its adaptability to climate change and pest resistance. We complement this with a deep review of agronomic management, where experts will share next-generation protocols to optimize every stage of the crop cycle, ensuring that the seed’s genetic potential translates into a harvest superior in both quality and quantity.

🌾Sustainability, Integrated Systems, and Carbon Credits

Modern agriculture demands a balance between profitability and respect for the environment. In this block, we will explore how crop rotation and other integrated production systems not only improve soil health but also diversify the producer’s income. We will discuss the rise of carbon credits as a tangible monetization opportunity and establish clear sustainability indicators to measure real impact. All this under the premise of the sustainable use of natural resources, guaranteeing the sector’s viability for future generations.

🌾Digital Transformation and Knowledge Transfer

The future of farming is smart. We will dedicate an exclusive space to digital agriculture, analyzing how the use of data, sensors, and software can maximize operational efficiency. However, technology is only useful if it reaches the producer; therefore, technology transfer will be a cross-cutting theme, seeking to bridge the gap between academic research and on-farm implementation so that no innovation remains just on paper.

🌾Political Framework, Economy, and Market Dynamics

The success of the rice sector does not depend solely on what happens on the farm. We will critically analyze the policies impacting the sector, from local regulations to international trade agreements. This pillar concludes with an analysis of current and future markets, providing attendees with business intelligence tools to understand price volatility, consumption trends, and new windows of opportunity in global trade.
