Sicilianews24.it: In Brasile, l’agricoltura rigenerativa avanza ma la deforestazione minaccia gli ecosistemi.

Agribusiness in Brasile: Il Dilemma della Deforestazione e le Innovazioni Agricole
L’agribusiness rappresenta circa un quinto dell’economia brasiliana e il 40% delle esportazioni del paese. Sebbene sia un potente motore economico, è anche responsabile di oltre il 90% della deforestazione e di circa un quarto delle emissioni nazionali. Tra le principali cause della deforestazione ci sono l’allevamento di bestiame e la produzione di soia. Innovazioni agricole hanno trasformato stati come il Mato Grosso da terre non coltivabili a hub agricoli globali. Attualmente, le aziende agricole e i ricercatori in Brasile stanno esplorando se simili innovazioni possano supportare pratiche di agricoltura rigenerativa per ripristinare i pascoli degradati e ridurre ulteriormente la deforestazione dovuta all’agricoltura.
Progetto REVERTE: Un Impegno per la Rigenerazione Agricola
REVERTE, uno dei più grandi progetti di rigenerazione agricola in Brasile, è guidato dal produttore svizzero di pesticidi Syngenta e mira a ripristinare 1 milione di ettari di pascoli degradati entro il 2030. Per il prossimo decennio, si prevede che il Brasile possa restaurare 40 milioni di ettari di terre degradate. Tuttavia, esperti avvertono che ripristinare i pascoli degradati non sarà sufficiente a fermare la deforestazione, soprattutto nelle regioni del Cerrado e dell’Amazzonia. Per ottenere risultati tangibili, è necessaria una solida governance sull’uso del suolo, l’applicazione delle protezioni forestali e impegni vincolanti da parte del settore privato.

In Brazil, regenerative agriculture is advancing but deforestation threatens ecosystems.

Agribusiness in Brazil: The Dilemma of Deforestation and Agricultural Innovations

Agribusiness represents approximately one-fifth of the Brazilian economy and 40% of the country's exports. Although it is a powerful economic engine, it is also responsible for over 90% of the deforestation and about one-quarter of national emissions. Among the main causes of deforestation are cattle ranching and soybean production. Agricultural innovations have transformed states such as Mato Grosso from unusable land to global agricultural hubs. Currently, Brazilian farms and researchers are exploring whether similar innovations can support regenerative farming practices to restore degraded pastures and further reduce deforestation due to agriculture.

REVERTE Project: A Commitment to Agricultural Regeneration

REVERTE, one of the largest agricultural regeneration projects in Brazil, is led by the Swiss pesticide manufacturer Syngenta and aims to restore 1 million hectares of degraded pastures by 2030. It is predicted that Brazil may restore 40 million hectares of degraded land over the next decade. However, experts warn that restoring degraded pastures will not be enough to stop deforestation, especially in the Cerrado and Amazon regions. To achieve tangible results, solid governance of land use, the application of forest protection measures, and binding commitments from the private sector are necessary.

Maar er is ook nog zoiets als boerenverstand schijnt. Als je denkt dat gifstoffen niet giftig zijn als de bijen niet onmiddellijk dood uit de lucht vallen (daar wordt veel onderzoek op gericht) dan ontbreekt het daar aan. Als je reclamepraatjes van #syngenta gelooft ook.

"To determine global pesticide risk, the study researchers looked at data on pesticide use from 2013 to 2019 in 65 nations that collectively represent nearly 80% of global crop acreage. They then combined these statistics with data on the toxicity of 625 pesticides for eight different species groups, including aquatic invertebrates and plants, fish, pollinating insects, soil organisms, and terrestrial arthropods, plants and vertebrates."

This TAT [total applied toxicity] is a very good approach to measure ecotoxicity. This is very important since the often used "tons of pesticides applied" is quite useless when we are talking about substances with highly varying toxicity. 👌

Of many pesticides, we do not really know the toxicity, or there is a lack of scientific consensus because the agrochemical corporations play dirty and have an army of paid pseudo-scientists. Additionally, toxicological studies focus mainly on acute toxicity on humans and not on long-term adverse health effects or the effects of combinations of different pollutants. And the toxicity for ecosystem functions is seldom even considered.
May this TAT help us to not underestimate toxicity so much.

As far back as 1975 corporate insiders were aware of potential risks. They called #paraquat’s long-term effects "a quite terrible problem” (Nov 11, 1975 ltr to #Chevron Environmental Health, Standard Oil of California).
Over 70 countries banned paraquat; it remains legal in US. #EnvironmentalProtectionAgency banned use on #golf courses but allows on crops.
Most US paraquat comes from China & UK—both banned paraquat’s use in their countries.
