Ñuble tiene el potencial de convertirse en la región agrícola más importante del país, enfrentando sus desafíos con investigación de excelencia, estrategias de extensión y adopción de tecnologías que promueven la sostenibilidad y resiliencia frente al cambio climático.
Yesterday we were part of the “Awarding Ceremony” of the contest “ CHALLENGES FOR POST-FIRE RECOVERY” that the Ministry of Science, Technology, Knowledge and Innovation (MinCiencia) together with the National Agency for Research and Development (ANID) developed to support the regions of Ñuble, Biobío and La Araucanía affected by severe fires in the summer of 2023.
El estudio constituyó la primera fase de una investigación que se ha realizado durante las últimas tres temporadas, y midió la salinidad del agua utilizada en 18 viñas, reflejando que un 17% de las muestras se ubicó en zonas de riesgo medio, y un 10% en zonas de riesgo alto.
En la segunda etapa se incorporaron análisis de cationes (Na, Ca, Mg) y aniones (CI, SO4, HCO3, CO3), y en la fase más reciente se estudió la relación con la disminución prolongada de las precipitaciones y el aumento en la salinidad.
Este 19 de octubre se realizará el primer encuentro de “Avances Recientes”, dedicado a cerezos, donde junto a la especialista del UC Cooperative Extension, Kosana Suvocarev, expondrán los renombrados académicos e investigadores Marlene Ayala de la Pontificia Universidad Católica, Jaime Auger y Claudio Osorio, de la Universidad de Chile, y Michelle Morales, del Centro de estudios avanzados en Fruticultura.
UC Davis Chile organizó la visita de Dra. Daniela Barile, investigadora de la Universidad de California, Davis, y el CEO del International Center for Food Ontology Operability Data and Semantics, Mathew Lange, para abordar la importancia de los ingredientes funcionales y el potencial del país para la producción de estos a partir de los alimentos y subproductos agroindustriales.
A paradigm shift is the first thing that comes to mind when we talk about Circular Economy (CE). In the current global context, today it is essential to be aware of the way we produce. What is the key? To maximize the utility and value of resources at all times, promoting more efficient, sustainable and regenerative productive systems.

With the participation of prominent local and international exhibitors, the First International Summit of Bioproducts, organized by Mundoagro magazine and UC Davis Chile, was an event that brought together different actors of the agricultural industry and where the main challenges in these matters were exposed at a local level, in order to lay the foundations for the growth of this trend in our country, particularly in matters of regulation and knowledge of this market.

Amidst ancestral crops such as corn or oregano, a number of microorganisms are hidden. They could help other plants protect themselves against insects or pathogens (bio-controllers). The first steps are taken by UC Davis Chile and UTA last April.

The Foundation for Agricultural Innovation (FIA), together with the Center of Research and Innovation (CII) of the vineyard Concha & Toro and the University of California, Davis in Chile (UC Davis Chile) implemented the young Agri-Food Panel in the context of the fair “I Believe in Chile”. The aim was to start up a dialogue amongst entrepreneurs, research centers and companies about the challenges of innovation connected to the agri-food world with different strategies and realities.
