The in situ: raiwater harvesting technique of CPATSA-EMBRAPA.
The major part of northeast Brazil is classified as arid and serni-arid, with an annual precipitation of 400-600 mm, poorly distributed and highly unpredictable. Therefore, chances of success in crop production are slim. The responsibility for developing suitable agricultural techniques for this region lies with the Centre of Agricultural Research for the Semi-Arid Tropics (CPATSA) of the Brazilian Enterprise for Agricultural Research (EMBRAPA), which is located at Petrolina (PE), Brazil.
