Eggplants are grown in greenhouses<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nBesides the UAE, the group operates in countries including Serbia, Morocco, Ethiopia and Mauritania, and Tereza Cristina prompted them to invest in Brazil. The Brazilians were impressed with the plantations in the desert. Here at Al Adla, techniques for growing produce at high temperatures and in bad soil are many, from drip and center-pivot irrigation to climate-controlled greenhouses.<\/p>\n
Brazilian Agriculture and Livestock Confederation (CNA) International Relations superintendent L\u00edgia Dutra, who\u2019s one of the delegates, says the technologies they saw are also employed in Brazil. \u201cWe\u2019ll use a lot of greenhousing for vegetables and legumes in Brazil. Irrigation is not yet where it could be, but we do have irrigation technologies. Irrigation is a prevalent technology in Brazil. What\u2019s newest to us here is this soil, which is pure sand, and they have to correct for it, to add the nutrients,\u201d says L\u00edgia.<\/p>\n
Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce president Rubens Hannun, who\u2019s also a delegate, said the farm\u2019s a lesson that even without the necessary natural conditions in place, you can make things work by having and seeking the tools you need. \u201cThey\u2019ll bring in the water and treat it, they\u2019ll make the weather suitable,\u201d says Hannun. The irrigation is mostly desalinated seawater.<\/p>\n
