Back to the projectGreater agricultural production with lower nitrous oxide emission
Editing to improve agricultural sustainability
Context of the story
We are improving the genetics of inoculants so that farmers can achieve greater profitability with a lower environmental footprint.
Improving the genetics of traditional inoculants
The implemented initiative
The implemented initiative is supported by FONTAGRO and by internal resources from various institutions in the Americas and Europe (INTA, UNSAM, CONICET, IIBCE, UFRO, EMBRAPA, UNC, and CSIC).
The technological solution
Our technological solution consists of improving the genetics of current inoculants.
