California has already reduced 5 million tons of methane per year on its dairy farms. This example shows that with public policies, incentives, and partnerships, it is possible to turn methane — one of the main greenhouse gases — into an opportunity. Brazil has the potential, but still lacks data, structure, and incentives tailored to the dairy chain to make this leap.

Artificial intelligence is transforming the dairy sector, accelerating innovation and connecting data to decision-making. In Brazilian dairy farming, tools such as PEC Calc, PEC Map, and PEC Scores show that this revolution has already begun. With organized data and a culture of adoption, what once was purely technical analysis becomes market strategy and sustainability.

ESGpec is now part of the Biominas Community, one of Brazil’s leading innovation ecosystems in biotechnology, life sciences, and sustainability. This new connection represents a strategic step to further boost our work in ESG, technology, and agri-innovation.

ESGpec has been approved for Inova Cerrado, Sebrae’s acceleration program that supports innovative bioeconomy solutions focused on the sustainable use of the Cerrado. The startup represents the dairy farming sector with a proposal that connects technology and biodiversity through the ESG Farm Score — a digital tool that evaluates criteria such as soil, water, animal welfare, and environmental regeneration based on reliable data.

In this article, we simultaneously analyze what the results of the Top 100 and the ESG Quiz reveal about the pathways for the evolution of dairy farming — and how initiatives such as the Regenerative Awakening Project and the Milk Pro Summit 2025 can accelerate this journey.
