3.2 Economic impact of ZT/CA and iCLF-CA management systems
adoption
The estimate of the economic impact of adoption of ZT/CA and iCLF-CA
management systems (Table 3) considering the data observed in 2017/2018,
shows a value of 2.3 billion US dollars, when taken in account the
equivalent fertilizer and lime requirements. This considers an impact of
1.4 billion US dollars due to the adoption of ZT/CA in 32.9 million ha
of annual crops and of 0.52 billion US dollars in 11.47 million ha of
cultivated pastures (not degraded or with little degradation).
