Soy is a major crop in Brazil, representing 56% of the area planted with grains. It is a popular source of protein in animal feed and human food. Soy cultivation enables crop rotation and assists in biological nitrogen fixation and nutrient recycling in soil.

Agricultural Planning
Soy cultivation plays a crucial role in the production system of the Cerrado region in Brazil. This is not only due to its profitability, but also because it enables farmers to grow a second crop with cotton, corn, sunflower, and sorghum. The planning of fertilizers and pesticides takes into account the best cost/benefit ratio for soy production. Cultivars are carefully selected based on their productive potential, cycle, agronomic characteristics, and biotechnologies required to achieve the best possible results in each crop. Our farms rely on survey data which provides this information.
Preparation, sowing and management
Soy cultivation involves direct sowing on straw, high-tech machines, and cultivars adapted to each region, which minimizes pesticide use and maximizes productivity. Integrated pest and disease monitoring (MIP/MID) helps manage efforts efficiently. Early soy harvesting in some states allows for planting second harvest crops. Trained operators and machines with high technology carry out the harvest. Harvest maps help increase average productivity.
Processing and storage
The soy processing and storage process begins with receiving it at the warehouse, with subsequent pre-cleaning of the grain, followed by drying and storage. The final destination is shipment of the stored grain to the final customer.
