Innovations in agribusiness in the scope of the Ruta Bioceánica

Abstract

The Bioceanic Route connects Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina and Chile. It can be considered the largest infrastructure project in Latin America and has the potential to reduce the cost of transporting goods between the four countries and continents. In addition, agribusiness is an activity of great economic importance for Brazil and for the state of Mato Grosso do Sul that can be a protagonist in this process. Livestock, in particular, is an important activity in the region, due to its representative value in the economy of this state. Thus, the Bioceânica Route has the potential to boost the development of agribusiness in the region. The highway will facilitate the transport of agricultural products between countries in the region, which will make Brazilian products more competitive in the international market. In addition, the highway will facilitate the entry of new technologies into the agricultural sector, which will help improve farm productivity and efficiency. This article aims to discuss innovations in agribusiness within the scope of the Bioceânica Route, focusing on livestock precision. In addition, we discuss that the Bioceânica Route, with its potential, can be a network that strengthens and intensifies the development of intraregional trade. Indeed, after this contextualization, we highlight the importance of analyzing the creation of Hubs of Innovation and Technologies applied to livestock precision.
