S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Sudan and Brazil have signed an agricultural agreement. The memorandum of understanding, which provides for exchange of genetic material, training to scientists, and exchange of information and research results, was signed by the ministers of Agriculture of Brazil, Wagner Rossi, and Sudan, Ismail Abd Elhalim Elmotafi, on this Tuesday (11th). <\/p>\n
The meeting of the two ministers was part of the agenda of the Brazil-Africa Dialogue on Food Security, Fight Against Hunger and Rural Development, which ended on this Wednesday (12th), at the Pal\u00e1cio do Itamaraty.<\/p>\n
In practical terms, the agreement provides for exchange of experience in biofuels, animal and vegetable health, crop integration systems, training in sugarcane farming, agricultural machinery maintenance, and animal breeding.<\/p>\n
"Brazil and Sudan are not competitors. These are countries with strong agricultural potential that may complement each other from a technical point of view," said Elmotafi, according to a press release issued by the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture. Agricultural activity accounts for 43% of the Sudanese economy, and its main products are sorghum, peanut, sugarcane and cassava.<\/p>\n
