SUGARCANE BREEDING PROGRAM OF RIDESA/UFSCar
TEAM
RIDESA / UFSCar
In addition to the great success in the development of RB sugarcane varieties for the national industry, RIDESA/UFSCar stands out in the training of human resources. The existing infrastructure within the Universities has provided support for training students at undergraduate and graduate levels with this crop. There are hundreds of trained professionals working in the private sector and public institutions, in addition to professionals, studentes, who are currently part of the technical staff of RIDESA / UFSCar.
