PT_BR With a prominent role in Mato Grosso's pig farming sector, Sorriso and Campo Verde will host the next editions of the Mato Grosso Regional Pig Farming Meeting. Organized by the Mato Grosso Pig Breeders Association (Acrismat), the event will take place on September 23rd in Sorriso and on September 25th in Campo Verde, with different programs, but both including the "Seeds of Innovation" Pig Farming edition, organized by AgriHub. Entry is free for both events; online registration is required.
In Sorriso, the first lecture will focus on Immunocastration: An Innovative and Globalized Technology for Male and Female Pigs, presented by veterinarian and zootechnician Fernando César Veit. The second lecture will be given by João Carlos Arruda de Oliveira, a doctoral candidate in tropical agriculture, and Josimar Brito da Silva, a PhD in tropical agriculture, who will discuss the environmental sustainability of using swine effluents in agriculture.
In Campo Verde, the lecture will be given by veterinarian Tiago Salomão Moura, who will also discuss swine immunocastration: evolution, efficiency, and innovation. The Seeds of Innovation project, swine farming edition, carried out by AgriHub, will be present on both dates. The project is an initiative that aims to boost the adoption of technologies in Mato Grosso's agribusiness, focusing on swine farming.
Erika Segóvia, manager of intelligence and new business at AgriHub, explains that the goal of the Seeds of Innovation program is to identify the most relevant challenges in the swine production chain and seek technological solutions that can effectively address them.
By connecting technology-based companies, startups, and the agricultural sector, the project strengthens the agricultural innovation ecosystem and encourages the use of technology in the field. “Technology is fundamental to the evolution of pig farming, allowing for precise animal monitoring, improving sanitary control, optimizing feed and operational management, and enabling the collection and analysis of technical data. All of this contributes to more assertive decision-making, increased productivity, and enhanced competitiveness,” he points out.
The president of Acrismat, Frederico Tannure Filho, reinforces the invitation to pig farmers in these regions and emphasizes the importance of the events for the activity. “The Mato Grosso Regional Pig Farming Meeting is a unique opportunity for producers, specialists, and leaders in the sector to meet and discuss relevant topics for pig farming in Mato Grosso. We will bring two important subjects to the discussion, and also the participation of AgriHub, which will raise challenges facing the activity in the region and, in the future, present solutions to these obstacles,” he pointed out.
