Brazil is a country with a vocation for agribusiness, due to its climate characteristics as well as its geographic diversity, possessing arable and highly fertile lands yet unexplored. Given these factors, agribusiness accounts for about one-third of Brazil's GDP, which is why it is considered the most important sector of the national economy. This sector allocates approximately 38% of hand labor in the country and accounts for 42% of our exports, thus having a significant representation in our balance of payments. With the increase in world’s population and the consequent demand for food, it is expected that Brazil will reach the world's leading level in the provision of food and commodities.

With our agribusiness program, we seek to provide a lifetime opportunity: observing closely the areas within the agribusiness sector. From the offices to the fields, participants will have the chance to take part in every division existent in Brazil’s main source of economy. Combining practical activities with theoretical lectures, we will bring the group to the most important Brazilian cities and zones to the agriculture subject. We start our journey in São Paulo - the country’s economic capital and educational polo – following to it’s countryside – responsible for almost 70% of all domestic production of sugar cane. Then, your students will go to Mato Grosso – the state is world's fourth largest soy producer. Hence, the next destination in our itinerary is Pernambuco, where participants will have the chance to observe creative ways to work in order to overcome production challenges that climatic and geographic conditions impose to agribusiness.
