Brazil has become one of today s major producers and net exporters of grain. This was achieved by converting barren land into one of the most productive agricultural regions in the world. Since the mid-1970s, the tropical savannah, known as the Cerrado, has been transformed into one of the world s largest grain-growing areas. Dr. Norman E. Borlaug, who received the Nobel Prize for his contribution to the Green Revolution, described Cerrado agriculture as one of the great achievements of agricultural science in the 20th century. The transformation of the Cerrado is one of the crucial factors in Brazil s impressive poverty reduction, which has been achieved not only through job creation and socially inclusive growth but also through increasing food and nutrition security. Innovative technologies and institutions were introduced and developed to uphold environmental and ecological conservation. The experiences of the Cerrado initiative related in this book will be of great value to other developing countries struggling to attain food and nutrition security, to create value chains, employment and socially inclusive growth, and to achieve sustainable development.
