″Our technology contributes to cleaner agriculture, reducing the impacts of chemicals on the soil and groundwater, with microorganisms as allies. In addition, it allows plants to become more resilient to water scarcity and climate changes, which are generally faced all around the world. All this while maintaining efficiency with more profitability for agricultural production and contributing to food security,″ she detailed.

Now, the solution is part of the portfolio of technologies that will be presented to companies and governments by the president of the Solar Impulse Foundation, Bertrand Piccard, the Swiss psychiatrist responsible for the first solar-powered plane to circle the world – and who has been recognizing and promoting sustainable solutions through its foundation.

The action aims to encourage the adoption of more ambitious environmental goals and accelerate the implementation of these solutions on a large scale.

The ″Solar Impulse Efficient Solution″ is one of the first stamps aimed at businesses with positive impacts and the only one to guarantee that certified solutions are profitable while protecting the environment.

Administered by the Solar Impulse Foundation, it relies on research and methodologies to evaluate each technology in partnership with renowned institutions. It is considered a true award for companies that seek to innovate and change the world based on their solutions.
