The INOVA DONA FORMOSA program began with animal welfare assessments on 12 supplier dairy farms in northeastern Minas Gerais. The results provide a baseline for social, environmental and farm management improvements.

In 2005, Andrés Rojas bought an abandoned rural property in Virgínia, Minas Gerais. Two decades later, Fazenda Sertãozinho placed second among medium-sized farms in Globo Rural’s 2026 Sustainable Farm Award. ESGpec’s assessments were part of the farm’s award application.

A study presented at the 2026 Annual Meeting of the American Dairy Science Association (ADSA), one of the leading international scientific conferences dedicated to dairy production, analyzed data from 326 Brazilian farms and found an association between higher somatic cell counts (SCC) and lower animal welfare scores.

Discover how Alvoar Lácteos and ESGpec assessed 504 dairy farms across five states and transformed animal welfare data into knowledge, transparency and value for the dairy supply chain.

How can science and technology advance social sustainability in dairy farming? A study presented at the ADSA 2026 Annual Meeting uses data from 326 Brazilian dairy farms to show how the BEA Score transforms animal welfare data into applied scientific knowledge.

Originally published by Agência Sebrae and widely distributed in the media, this report presents the first structured carbon footprint assessment of 80 dairy farms participating in Sebrae Minas' Educampo program. The study highlights the relationship between productivity, farm management and sustainability, supported by ESGpec's PEC Calc, BEA Score and ESG Farm Score technologies.

Animal welfare has moved from a peripheral issue to a core pillar of dairy sustainability. Discover how international frameworks, field data, and digital tools support scalable, practical, and climate-resilient dairy systems.

ESGpec has been officially accepted into the Aliados pelo Impacto program, a network of more than 170 organizations committed to strengthening the impact economy in Brazil. Through this partnership, we expand our visibility, exchange knowledge, and connect technology, data, and sustainability in dairy farming.
