What approaches to management and production are used in Brazil? What machinery John Deer offers for farms that practice precision farming? How efficient is John Deer machinery in companies that practice No-till? How to properly set up management systems for a farm that farms more than 500,000 ha of land and grows grain and oilseed crops? Participants of two study tours to Brazil have studied these issues in detail during the study tour that BRIDGES developed in cooperation with John Deer.

Agricultural companies of very different sizes, poor logistics, large distances between growers and ports, challenging road conditions and some other challenges are common for both Ukrainian and Brazilian farmers. That is why key experts and staff from leading
Ukrainian agricultural companies have participated in the study tour that include such companies as Astarta, Agricor, Kernel, Ukrlandfarming, Rostok-holding and many others. As part of John Deer-BRIDGES cooperation, 32 representatives of Ukrainian agricultural companies and John Deer employees participated in the study tours to Brazil.
