The Social Profit/Net revenue ratio grew in comparison with the previous year,
from 7.89 to 9.07. Such growth was due to the fact that in 2013 net revenue
was practically the same as in 2012, whereas Social Profit increased 17%. Such
money was returned to society multiplied by 9.07. The high returns of funds
invested in Embrapa to society have been made evident in several ways in economic, social and environmental terms, as detailed in the chapter “Adoption of
technologies and returns to society” (pages 10 to 15).

This is a baseline figure, as it refers to new jobs generated by the
technologies evaluated in this Social Report. Embrapa has developed
and transferred thousands of technologies, products and services to
Brazilian society. Such impact is not calculated, but without doubt, the
number of jobs created is much higher year after year.

The value of innovation,
partnerships and sustainability
Since 1997, when the first edition of the Social Report was launched, Embrapa has been
annually updating numerical data on the adoption of and of the social, economic and
environmental impacts of its technologies, as well as presenting evidence of returns from
investments in research for Brazilian society.
Throughout the course of its history, the company’s operations have been marked by
breaking paradigms in the pursuit of knowledge and technological solutions for Brazilian
agriculture. Such constant renovation is reflected in benefits for the country and involves
not only the generation of technologies, but also the management of institutional
processes and of the appropriation of research results. Embrapa has always invested
heavily in the training of collaborators, in tune with or even ahead of the most advanced
science produced in the world. To support such investment, the institution started to
constantly improve institutional management tools. This entire effort, however, would not
make sense if the institution did not also create new means of appropriation or exchange
of knowledge involving the various links in the production chain.
This process of renovation entails the adoption of a new research paradigm. It is the
recognition that the interaction between science, production systems and society no
longer occurs in unidirectional flows, but rather in networks moved by relevant information
systems. This new design makes all the difference to the company when its research
is developed not through isolated projects, but instead within portfolios and project
arrangements involving an extensive network of internal and external partners. The same
applies in the context of institutional management as public- and private-sector partners
are involved to establish a strategic intelligence system such as Agropensa. This new
paradigm also affects the very process of production and consumption of knowledge
and technologies, which ceases to be one-sided or unidirectional in order to comprise
their joint, interactive construction.
6
The challenge of participation in public policy
Brazil still has a huge gap in terms of public policies that promote resilience against liabilities
and steer the country into a sustainable path of economic, social and environmental
development. In this context, under the leadership of the Ministry of Agriculture,
Livestock and Food Supply, and jointly with the Ministry of Agrarian development (MDA)
and other government entities, Embrapa has more effectively fulfilled its role as generator
of solutions in a broad sense, by proposing and participating in the improvement of
public policies and the reduction of rural and urban poverty.
Among the best examples of this role is Embrapa’s involvement in the Low Carbon
Agriculture Plan (Agricultura de Baixo Carbono – ABC Plan), which was only made
possible by the technologies developed and improved by its research centers, e.g.
biological nitrogen fixation, no-till farming, biological pest control and Integrated CropLivestock-Forest systems (CLFi).

Another noteworthy part played by Embrapa is its participation in the process of modeling
and launching the National Technical Assistance and Rural Extension Agency (Agência
Nacional de Assistência Técnica e Extensão Rural - ANATER), as well as its support to
initiatives to integrate teaching, research and rural extension aimed at family farming for the
Brazil Without Misery program. Such program comprises 14 projects that have mobilized
over 3,000 people to learn more about productive spaces and about farmer families and
their respective contexts in order to jointly build knowledge and know-how for the benefit
of their quality of life. This mobilization resulted in 689 collective activities including planning
workshops, meetings, and technical visits, in addition to 120 training activities in the 317
learning units (LUs) that were set up.
Several of these units trialed social technologies like ecological stoves and septic tanks,
which led to the creation of healthy indoor and outdoor environments, preemptively caring
for people and places. Other units implemented strategies for food security through the
creation of animal feed alternatives such as forage palm and cassava. Another group of
LUs experimented with agroecological management by planting corn, beans and various
fodder plants (Gliricidia sepium; pigeon pea) for livestock production. In the context of family
farming, the company has also established technical cooperation partnerships with the
National Confederation of Agricultural Workers (Confederação Nacional dos Trabalhadores
na Agricultura - Contag) and with the Smallholders Movement (Movimento dos Pequenos
Agricultores - MPA) to conduct local and regional workshops.

With regard to public policy, Embrapa has supported the development of the National
Plan of Agroecology and Organic Production (Plano Nacional de Agroecologia e Produção
Orgânica - Planapo), created with the commitment to integrate, articulate and adapt
policies, programs and actions to promote an ecological transition, and organic and
agro-ecologically based production. It also highlights the company’s involvement with
policies aimed at the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources of the Amazon
region, such as the Sustainable Amazon Plan (Plano Amazônia Sustentável - PAS), the
Plan to Prevent and Control Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon region (Plano de Ação
e Prevenção de Controle do Desmatamento na Amazônia - PPCDAM) and the Xingu
Sustainable Development Plan (Plano para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável do Xingu PDRS Xingu).
This new edition of the Social Report once again features many successful cases, such
as the Campo Limpo (clean field) herbicide applicator, the Lenda da Embrapa (Legend of
Embrapa) Holstein cow and the acerola cherries from the Embrapa-Nutrilite partnership.
Other highlights include the coffee cultivars from the Campinas Agronomic Institute
(Instituto Agronômico de Campinas - IAC), the bacterium that fixes nitrogen from the
air into cowpeas, biological control of exotic pine aphids, and the digital model of forest
exploitation (Modeflora). These are just the tips of the iceberg that exemplify the returns
Embrapa and partners provide to society.
The assessment of research impacts resorts to several pieces of evidence. These impacts,
as detailed below, stand for the consolidation of a new strategic direction shared with
an extensive network of collaborators, involving researchers, technicians, farmers and
administrators at public and private institutions. As a matter of fact, strategy, innovation,
partnership and sustainability are the keywords that have made Embrapa a public research
institution of national and international excellence.
The fact that Brazil is deemed a reference in sustainable development for many nations
nowadays is much due to agricultural research and to all of those who participate in it.
This is a development that is expressed in terms of inputs, products and guidelines that
promote improvements to quality of life, streamline markets, and build success stories.

Adoption of technologies
and returns to society
The indicator for profitability traditionally shown in the Social Report is one that relates the
annual social profit to annual operating revenue. Such ratio has historically been between
7.8 for each real invested and 14.9/1. The estimated ratio for 2013 was 9.07/1.
Such excellent result in terms of returns to society is also evident in several other ways.
For instance, using the internal rate of return (IRR), which relates the flow of economic
benefits generated by agricultural research to cost flow, the estimated rate for Embrapa,
considering more than 50 studies conducted over the last 30 years, has varied between
20 and 70% depending on the level of aggregation adopted (Embrapa, center, program,
product or region). Considering 82% of the technologies that were monitored and evaluated
for the purposes of the Social Report and their internal rates of return, an average IRR of
43.4% was estimated. Both the results obtained by studies developed in the past and
the rates for technologies included in the Social Reports from 1997 to 2013 indicate that
investments in Embrapa generate profitability that is far superior to that obtained in other
sectors of the economy.
A study of the long-term association between a series of food basket prices in Brazil and
a series of investments in agricultural research found that, in the long term, 10% increase
of the budget of Embrapa implies 2.23% drop in the price of the basket. As the poorest
spend the bulk of their income purchasing food, lowering food prices relieves the monthly
budget of the neediest. From February 1976 to July 2012, the accumulated reduction was
of 79.82%. Hence there is the conclusion that “continuous incentives to agriculture, taking
advantage of its immense technological basis to expand exports and accumulate funds, is
the appropriate mechanism to stabilize domestic prices and significantly mitigate poverty
in the country”.
Yet, a joint analysis of data from the 1995/1996 and 2006 agricultural censuses shows that,
based on 1995/1996 agriculture, an increase in research intensity in any given Embrapa
unit implicated an average increase in rural producers’ gross income of 8.8% over the
period. For this analysis, rural establishments with positive net income and receiving
technical assistance were considered - a sample of 86,626 establishments.
Embrapa’s impact can be further analyzed in terms of its contribution to productivity
increases in Brazilian agriculture in the 1975/2006 period, estimated at around 2.16%
p.a. An analysis of the determinants of total factor productivity (TFP) in agriculture in the
1975/2006 period per state indicated that “the Embrapa effect” was significant in the
evolution of the index. A one-unit increase in research intensity at Embrapa entails a 10 to
15% increase in the TFP index.
10
Other evidence of Embrapa’s impact can be found in the scientific literature produced by
the company and recorded in the Web of Science (WoS) database. Since 1975, it has
grown from three articles that year to 1,273 articles in 2012. Such volume of articles places
Embrapa among the 10 largest science-producing institutions in the country, including all
universities and S&T institutes and not only those on agricultural sciences.
On the other hand, a close examination of the impact of this scientific production, i.e.
the use of Embrapa’s production by other researchers measured by number of citations,
reveals figures that are also encouraging. A widely accepted measure of impact is the
Hirsch index, the so-called H-Index. Hirsch estimates that “an H-index of 20 after 20 years
of scientific activity characterizes a successful scientist”, an H-index of 40 after 20 years of
scientific activity characterizes noteworthy scientists and an H-index of 60 after 20 years,
or 90 after 30 years characterizes truly unique individuals. Embrapa’s Hirsch index from
1975 to 2012, a period of 37 years, was 89, that is, 89 articles obtained 89 or more
citations. During Embrapa’s first 30 years, the H-Index was 56. This is more evidence of
this company’s contribution to the advancement of knowledge in Brazil, in the world, and
in the area of agricultural sciences.
Indexes for Social and Environmental
Impacts of Agricultural Innovations
In addition to estimating the economic benefits and the jobs generated by Embrapa’s
technologies, the corporation also evaluates social and environmental impacts through
the use of Ambitec-Social and Ambitec-Ambiental, the social and environmental modules
of Ambitec, a system to assess environmental impacts of agricultural technological
innovations.
Individually, the results of the social and environmental assessments allow farmers to verify
which technology impacts can be improved. However, when considered as an aggregate,
they enable the research-generating institution to indicate measures to foster or to control
the adoption of innovations according to local sustainable development plans.
Ambitec-Social and Ambitec-Ambiental use the same methodology. The indexes
generated by the systems are obtained considering specific indicators: fourteen of a
social nature, thirteen environmental indicators, and a series of components arranged in
11
weighting matrices built in spreadsheets. Each component is evaluated in the field through
an interview/survey with the adopter of the technology under assessment that specifies the
“component change coefficient” for the activity in their establishment. This coefficient is then
weighted according to its spatial scale of occurrence and importance in the composition of
the impact indicator. The results of these weighting procedures are expressed graphically
in spreadsheets, and then indicator assessments are aggregated into an index for the
impact of agricultural technological innovation, which can vary between -15 to 15.
The following graphs present an average, calculated from samples, of the partial results
of different groups of technologies assessed in 2013, namely: plant varieties, animal
production, and software and processing technologies.

Technologies that contribute to increasing the average productivity of domestic agriculture and food supply
to the Brazilian population. Besides the economic impact, the table includes the Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
and social and environmental impact indices for the technologies, which can range from -15 to +15, obtained
according to the perception of a sample of farmers for each technology.
Even during draughts, the acerola cherries from
the Embrapa-Nutrilite partnership generate more
jobs and income for farmers in the state of Ceará
The acerolas that are harvested when they are unripe are one of the top sources of vitamin
C, and the weather in the Brazilian Northeast allows for year-round production. A small
revolution occurred in the uplands of Ibiapaba, in the hinterlands of Ceará state, when the
company Nutrilite sought Embrapa’s help in the mid-1990s to develop acerola varieties
that would make commercial production to manufacture vitamin-C powder feasible. Such
partnership produced results: Nutrilite set up a farm and an industrial unit in the municipality
of Ubajara, CE; and, in order to facilitate the establishment of a production chain with higher
added value, Embrapa Tropical Agroindustry first released four acerola clones and then, in
2012, it launched an acerola cherry cultivar that was a champion in productivity: BRS 366
Jabiru. Nowadays, 130 farmers from Piauí, Bahia and Ceará states have been integrated
to the process and sell Nutrilite acerola cherries, a business that generates 5,000 direct
jobs and 15,000 indirect jobs overall. In 2013, even in the midst of a severe drought, these
farmers produced 8 million tons of acerola cherries at their unripe stage, valued at R$ 16
million. Out of this total, Jabiru accounted for 3,000 tonnes or R$ 5.7 million. When the
rains return, the expectation is that those gains will increase even further.

Governments and businesses save 30%
and adopt the Digital Forestry Model –
Modeflora
About 60% of the Amazon rainforest is located within Brazilian territory. One of the
biggest research challenges is to facilitate sustainable forest management plans, which
could enable Amazonian people to seize such wealth and preserve it. Embrapa’s solution
is Modeflora, which applies integrated forest inventory, geographical information, remote
sensing, and GPS techniques to plan, execute and monitor management activities with
high precision. With the tool, planning respects all the environmental characteristics of
the forest management area, with efficient and precise low-impact forestry techniques
and a 30% cost reduction. Since 2012, 100% of Acre’s forest management plans have
been elaborated with Modeflora, which was also adopted in the state of Rondônia, by
the Brazilian Forest Service, and by large forest management companies in the states of
Amazonas, Roraima, Pará, and Amapá.

Lenda da Embrapa, Brazil’s first Holstein
cow clone, is ten years old and already a
great-grandmother
When Lenda da Embrapa (Embrapa’s legend) was born, it was already a milestone in
Brazilian science. In addition to being the first clone of the Holstein breed in Brazil, it was
also the first national clone developed from the cells of an animal that was already dead,
something which opened up the possibility of recovering animals of high production
value as well as of regenerating endangered wild animals.
Lenda da Embrapa was born in September 4, 2003. Today, it is already the mother
of three daughters: Fábula, Fantasia and Bela; grandmother of Fada and Dama, and
great grandmother of Princesa. All of them are healthy and living in the Sucupira Farm
experimental field, in Brasília, DF. Bearing healthy offspring is important for cloned animals
from a scientific point of view, as it proves their reproductive capacity and maternal
ability. In this regard, Embrapa’s clone is a top score!

Brazilian cowpea inoculant increases
productivity of African crops by 45%
Cowpea is grown in 11 million hectares spread in many countries of Africa, but its
average productivity is low. The situation was similar to the one found in the North and
Northeastern states of Brazil before 2004, when a nitrogen-fixing bacterial inoculant
developed by Embrapa Agrobiology started being used. Such inoculant nowadays
moves a market of 200 thousand annual doses. In Brazil, considering items such as
cultivated area, average productivity, nitrogen (N) content in grains and in fertilizers,
and the efficiency and cost of industrial fertilizers, savings generated by the natural
process of biological N fixation are estimated at R$ 164 million per year. Due to
the climate and soil similarities between the two sides of the Atlantic, the inoculant
production technology has been tested and transferred to the Savanna Agricultural
Research Institute (SARI) of Ghana. In view of its ease of use and low cost/benefit
ratio, the product increased cowpea productivity in 45% and was very well received
by Ghanaian farmers. The success achieved in Ghana has made other countries such
as Kenya signal their interest in receiving the technology.

Calculated impacts of the participation of cultivars generated by Embrapa and partners on the domestic
market for cotton seeds, irrigated rice, dryland rice, beans, maize, soybeans, sorghum and wheat.
IAC Coffees correspond to 84%
of the national Arabica coffee
The Mundo Novo, Catuaí Vermelho and Catuaí Amarelo cultivars of the Agronomic
Institute of Campinas (Instituto Agronômico de Campinas - IAC) –founded in 1887 by the
Emperor D. Pedro II, and which today is part of the São Paulo Agribusiness Technology
Agency (Agência Paulista de Tecnologia dos Agronegócios), under the São Paulo state
Secretariat of Agriculture and Food Supply –, are synonymous with Coffee in Brazil. Their
high productivity and adaptability to all coffee-growing regions of the country and to new
farming practices such as irrigation, mechanization and integrated pest management,
have entailed a paradigm shift in national coffee production. The country currently
has coffee fields totaling 6.64 billion trees, including seedlings and trees at production
stages. Out of these, 5.6 billion are Coffea arabica plants and 4.7 billion specifically are
of these three IAC cultivars. And the future has already arrived, as the new cultivars
developed under the scope of the coffee research and development consortium aim at
the production of specialty coffee.

-15 to +15, obtained in accordance with the perception of a sample of producers for each technology.
Campo Limpo selective herbicide
applicator reduces costs and controls weeds
without compromising forage species
As Brazilian cattle feeds on grass, the fact there are quality pastures is one of the foundations
for the superior quality of the national beef. Weed infestations in pastures reduce offtake
rates, and the ingestion of toxic plants increases spending with medicine or even the
death of animals. The research solution was patented by Embrapa South Livestock and
transferred to a partner industry, Grazmec Indústria e Comércio Ltda. The Campo Limpo
selective herbicide applicator controls South African lovegrass (Eragrostis plana Nees )
and talquezal (Paspalum virgatum), the main invasive species in Southern and Northern
Brazilian pastures, as well as Senecio brasiliensis, the main cause of death of adult bovine
animals in the country, without affecting forage species. In Rio Grande do Sul, Campo
Limpo applications during the spring reduced the S.A. lovegrass coverage from 80 to
20%. When used jointly with the overseeding of Italian ryegrass in late summer, it not only
controls S.A. lovegrass but also improves pastures in winter time.

Exotic pine aphids are controlled in Brazil
with the introduction of natural enemies
from their regions of origin
Forests planted with pine and eucalyptus occupy 6.6 million hectares in the country, 1.6
million ha of which are pine. C. pinivora and C. atlantica aphids, originated from North
America, were introduced in Brazil in 1996 and 1998. Attacks from such pests have
caused 14% losses in wood production, and even represented R$ 10.7 million in the year
2004. The research solution – a consortium formed by Embrapa Epagri, UFPR, UNESP
and Funcema – was collecting the Xenostigmus bifasciatus wasp in the United States,
then introducing, mass breeding and releasing it on pine plants in Brazil. The wasps were
initially released in plantations in Santa Catarina, Paraná and São Paulo states, but within
a year they reached Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul and the country’s extreme south,
in addition to Argentina and Uruguay. The pest is no longer a problem in Brazil.
