This Thursday (21) in your ANBA Bulletin: Brazil is a wheat importer but works toward self-sufficiency and a higher availability for exports, Jorge Lemainsky, the general head at state crop research agency Embrapa Wheat, told ANBA.

The product is able to increase soybean biomass by up to ten times compared to conventional fertilizers. Brazilian entrepreneur Maria Eduarda Becker has launched a plant milk in Gulf markets. She is the founder of United Arab Emirates-based coffee brand Três Marias and is launching the new beverage to tap into the budding market.
