Embrapa Cerrados has set up demonstration fields in Planaltina and Recanto das Emas to showcase 32 cultivars of corn, sorghum, and millet. The initiative aims to present the agronomic potential of these cultivars, some of which are still in development, and to evaluate their pest and disease resistance in the Cerrado region.
