With one of the fastest growing soybean production industries, Paraguay announced the signing of an agreement to package agrochemicals according to the needs of small farms. 
 
The agreement was announced by the National Service of Plant and Seed Quality and Health (SENAVE), in conjunction with the National Chamber of Industries of Agricultural Defenses (CINDA).
 
Both agencies stated that they aim to enable smallholders to access agrochemicals in suitable capacities and containers, as the local market does not currently offer products in small packages that meet the needs of this key segment.
 
They added that this type of product presentation will prevent the improper handling of agrochemicals, to avoid exposure and unnecessary risk to producers.
 
The interinstitutional cooperation agreement was signed this month by Eng. Agr. Rodrigo González Navarro (President of SENAVE) and Dr. Claudio Ángel Pusineri (President of CINDA).
 
Navarro stressed that it is necessary to enable the national industry to provide agrochemicals to family agriculture, adding that the products suitable for the safe management of pests are associated with the seven items prioritized by the government, which are tomato, pepper, potato, onion, sugar cane, banana and cassava.
 
Dr. Pusineri highlighted his awareness of the inconveniences caused by the lack of viable alternatives for producers, adding that the agreement will benefit those in the countryside, and, therefore, the entire country.
