March Member Meeting Report

By Jose Alexandre Loyola, Regional Director

We were pleased with the turnout and participation at last month’s Member Meeting on March 10 at Embrapa Territorial in Campinas/SP. With the presence of several members, we were able to discuss the 2025 planning, aligning actions in the 3 pillars of the entity: Create, Engage and Grow.

We also got the opportunity to heare more about Embrapa Territorial's projects from Gustado Spadotti, the General Manager of the entity. Embrapa Territorial is a unit of Embrapa that works to enable research, development, and innovation solutions in intelligence, management, and territorial monitoring for the sustainability and competitiveness of Brazilian agriculture.

Finally, we locked in the dates for in-person and online member meetings that we will hold this year:

  1. In-Person Meetings | 10:00 to 16:00
    12 August in Piracicaba/SP (ESALQ).
    02 December in Indaiatuba/SP (John Deere).

  2. Virtual Member Meetings | 10:00 to 12:00

Later this month, AgGateway Latin America will participate in the largest agricultural fair in Brazil – Agrishow – in Ribeirão Preto/SP. I will visit the fair for two days and look forward to visiting with our members at their booths, in addition to prospecting new members.
