With more than 4,000 varieties, the world’s most complete sugarcane Germplasm Bank is in CTC’s hybridization station in Camamu (BA), where the company carries out breeding targeted at each of the country’s sugarcane producing regions. Rigorous inoculation tests are carried out in order to select only the varieties known to be resistant to the main diseases. The company also employs advanced biotechnology techniques to identify desirable characteristics by analyzing the DNA of the varieties. Modern biotechnology is also present in the genetic transformation systems, which have already produced insect-resistant CTC varieties.
In recent years, the CTC has been restructured to become the world's leading center for the development and integration of disruptive technologies in the sugar and ethanol industry, capable of meeting the challenge of doubling the sector's innovation rate in an economically sustainable manner. Your communication could not be left out of this process. And, among the CTC's dialogue tools with the market and other stakeholders in its sector, the website is one of the main ones.
