Cotecna and Agronômica (part of the Cotecna Group), lead key discussions on soybean quality control and technical excellence at a recent seminar.
Cotecna and Agronômica recently participated in the 2nd Soybean Quality Seminar, held in Rio Grande - RS, Brazil, on March 26–27. The seminar brought together industry professionals for two days dedicated to strengthening soybean quality and export practices. Organized by SINTECON, the event focused on technical learning, operational improvements, and the standards required to meet international market expectations.
The program this year featured Cotecna, Agronômica (part of the Cotecna Group), and Laboratório Pro Ambiente as the main presenters. The dicussions reinforced the importance of comprehensive inspection processes, advanced laboratory analyses, and consistent quality protocols throughout Brazil’s soybean supply chain, with particular attention to the requirements of the Chinese market.
Key themes highlighted during the seminar included:
- Essential practices for soybean quality evaluation
- Phytosanitary requirements for global export markets
- Standardization and safety procedures throughout port and pre-export operations
Contributions from Cotecna and Agronômica reinforced the industry's commitment to technical excellence and science-based decision making, critical to maintaining Brazil’s position as a trusted supplier of high-quality soybeans.
