Outlines
đ Second Workshop on Regenerative Livestock Farming
The speaker is at the second regenerative livestock farming workshop organized by Embrapa, an agricultural research corporation. They reflect on the first year's focus on inventory and carbon footprint calculations, which were previously scarce. The morning was productive, with Embrapa staff showcasing significant results from calculations made, affecting over 1700 farms. This has provided insights into the carbon footprint of Brazilian milk. The speaker also mentions an excellent lecture about future regenerative work, including examples of the farms they serve and the carbon calculations they've performed. They emphasize the importance of the dairy sector not only for its emissions but also for its carbon sequestration and food production. The use of a calculator tool was transformative, reducing data entry from hours to 20 minutes, leading to realistic results for the farms being assessed. The speaker invites all producers to use the SustentAg project, which offers free tools for sustainability diagnosis, including a carbon calculator and a questionnaire for sustainability scoring and animal welfare practices.

entĂŁo estamos aqui no segundo workshop
de pecuåria regenerativa da Embrapa né
um primeiro ano que a gente viu bastante
coisa sobre os inventĂĄrios sobre como
calcular mas nĂŁo tinha muitos nĂșmeros nĂ
hoje uma manhĂŁ super produtiva o pessoal
da Embrapa mostrou jĂĄ bastante resultado
com com os cĂĄlculos que tem sido feitos
resultados aĂ de mais de 1700 fazendas a
gente começando a ter uma ideia do que
que Ă© o nĂșmero da pegada de carbono do
leite brasileiro e vocĂȘ trouxe aĂ pra
gente também numa excelente palestra é
um me trabalho que vocĂȘ faz futura
generativa eh trouxe alguns exemplos dos
pretores que vocĂȘ atende e tambĂ©m dos
Calis que vocĂȘ fez comatec calk volta
pra gente um pouquinho como Ă© que tem
sido esse trabalho como Ă© que foi a
experiĂȘncia Ah sem dĂșvida nenhuma o
trabalho é ele é valorosa né A gente
trabalha com rotores de leite eh somos
criticados pelas emissÔes Mas se a gente
analisar de uma forma um pouco mais Ă©
prĂłxima da realidade Ă© um setor que
também sequestra e fixa carbono no solo
e isso pra gente Ă© uma relevĂąncia
significativa e produz alimento né exato
e utilizar a calculadora Foi algo
sensacional porque a experiĂȘncia que eu
tinha era de horas tentando inserir né
dados e agora com a PC C foi 20 minutos
eu f aqui um resultado excepcional com
nĂșmero realista de acordo com a com a
com a fazenda que a gente estava
avaliando EntĂŁo para mim foi uma
experĂȘncia fantĂĄstica e vou continuar
utilizando entĂŁo aproveitar e fazer um
convite a todos os produtores né a gente
tem o projeto de sustentar regenerativo
da sgpc que a ideia Ă© disponibilizar
ferramentas para diagnĂłstico de
sustentabilidade de forma gratuita pros
produtores entĂŁo Inclusive a pegc que o
Celso comentou mas também a gente tem
ferramentas aĂ de questionĂĄrios para
fazer um score de sustentabilidade da
Fazenda o scad de engajamento com as
prĂĄticas de bem-estar animal sĂŁo
oportunidades PR os produtores começarem
a a ter mais nĂșmero ter mais informaçÔes
sobre o o status de engajamento com
das suas fazendas pessoal utilizem Ă©
fĂĄcil rĂĄpido e dĂĄ um resultado incrĂvel
