History, projects and research
History
Planorte Farm began its activities in the 1993/94 harvest. In the initial structure, there was only the headquarters where the collaborators were.
Social projects
Every year during the week of SIPATR, the collaborators of the Farm collect non-perishable food, assemble basic food baskets and distribute these baskets to the Pastoral da Criança de Sapezal and to the needy families of the same city. In 2017, the Treasury implemented the Digital Inclusion Space, democratizing access to technology and distance education, taking collaborators into the digital and knowledge era.
Research
The research area of Planorte Farm occupies more than 160 ha destined to studies applied to cotton, soy and corn crops. Currently, there are tests that assess the response of crops to the management of potassium fertilizers, soil management and coverings, as well as the use of foliar fertilizers in some crops. The studies carried out to define seeding times and adaptability/stability of genotypes in crops of commercial interest are also of paramount importance.
