Brazil’s family farming backbone embraces Chinese AI to reverse vital sector’s decline
巴西与中国达成一项为期五年的合作计划，旨在借助 AI 帮助小农户实现农业现代化。巴西农业研究公司 Embrapa 与四家中国机构在南京签署谅解备忘录，合作背景是巴西农业就业持续十年下滑、小农户难以获得价格可负担的技术。
The family farmers who produce the lion’s share of Brazil’s staple foods are opening their arms to cutting-edge Chinese artificial intelligence in a bid to modernise operations and secure their future.
Brazil and China agreed to a five-year cooperation programme in September aimed at giving smallholders – the backbone of the Brazilian agricultural sector – an AI boost after a decade of declining employment and limited access to affordable technology.
Representatives of the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) and four Chinese institutions signed the memorandum of understanding in Nanjing, capital of Jiangsu province.
The Chinese parties were the state-owned Sinomach Digital Technology Corporation, Nanjing Agricultural University, the Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the International Association for People’s Cooperation.
