FEAGRI

What FEAGRI does

FEAGRI (Faculdade de Engenharia Agrícola) is the Faculty of Agricultural Engineering within UNICAMP (Universidade Estadual de Campinas), a state public university located in Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil. Founded in 1987 as a distinct academic unit following the restructuring of UNICAMP's prior Faculty of Food and Agricultural Engineering, FEAGRI delivers undergraduate and graduate (Master's and Doctorate) programs in Agricultural Engineering with three graduate concentration areas: rural infrastructure, agricultural robotics and digital agriculture, and post-harvest, environment, and bioenergy engineering. Its primary users are undergraduate and graduate students admitted via UNICAMP's centralized COMVEST entrance examination and the formal Processo Seletivo graduate selection process.

The institution's core technology portfolio comprises 18 specialized research laboratories, with notable units including LIGeA (geospatial information for precision agriculture, drone-mounted multispectral imaging, AI-driven digital soil mapping), BIOMA (anaerobic bioprocessing for bioenergy from agroindustrial residues), LOGICOM (agroindustrial logistics with 20 multidisciplinary researchers), and laboratories covering post-harvest technology, hydraulics and irrigation, hydrology, biotechnology, ergonomics, and digital agroindustry. Digital infrastructure includes the LABIN computer laboratory (80 Windows workstations), an internal intranet for administrative services, and a mobile vehicle checklist application.

FEAGRI operates as a non-commercial public academic unit. Its funding flows through Brazilian state government allocations to UNICAMP, CAPES (Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior) PROAP/AUXPE graduate support, and CNPq research grants. Undergraduate tuition is free for Brazilian students under the public university system, and graduate students are supported by CAPES/CNPq scholarships. Revenue is not commercially disclosed because the institution does not generate commercial revenue. Its go-to-market is event-driven: COMVEST undergraduate recruitment, university open days (UPA FEAGRI), Agrishow trade-show presence, CONBEA congress participation, extension courses, and international partnerships (CALDO Canada, Universidad Autónoma Chapingo Mexico, China Agricultural University, ZhengChang). The institution holds no patents in the source material, has no subsidiaries, and operates with 11–50 faculty/staff in scope of the data provided.
