01 / AGROECOLOGY
The future of farming starts with living soil.
Agroecology connects food production, environmental balance and farmers’ knowledge. We aim to bring this integrated perspective together with research and technology.
At Agrolumiere, this connection guides the proposed integration of food gardens, composting, bioinputs under evaluation and monitoring in the BioMil pilot.
02
Biodiversity
Value crop diversity and relationships between plants, organisms and the environment.
03
Water and climate
Connect environmental conditions and water use with growing decisions.
04
Farmers’ knowledge
Build knowledge with farmers, researchers and communities.
02 / ENVIRONMENTAL INTELLIGENCE
Observe. Connect. Learn from data.
BioDigital demonstrates how the pilot’s processes could be monitored: waste, biogas, water and environmental conditions in one view.
- Records for each process
- Readings over time
- Support for research and management

IN PLANNING
Anaerobic digestion, food gardens and care for Guanabara Bay, connected through applied research and monitoring.
18months of planned duration
14months planned on site
3cycles: food, plant and kennel waste
Biodigesters & biogas
Separate cycles for food and kennel waste. Gas for cooking and water heating.
- Waste
- Digestion
- Biogas
Ecological barrier
Contain floating litter for collection and proper disposal. Planned installation is subject to site assessment.
- Contain
- Collect
- Dispose
Gardens & food
Cultivation, composting and environmental education. Local production with planned PROFESP participation.
- Compost
- Grow
- Harvest
The food garden is planned to use biofertilizer from the food-waste cycle after technical, sanitary and agronomic validation. Kennel digestate will have a separate destination.
Planned durations start from the agreement's signature. Capacity, production and savings will be established through assessment and measurement.

JOIN AGROLUMIERE
The next cycle can start with you.
Share knowledge, propose a partnership or find a new destination for your waste.
Growers have knowledge to share.
Would you like to share your experience with soil, water and crops? There is much to learn from the field.
Stories will be published with participants' permission.
Produce. Exchange. Continue.
Let's build barter partnerships for food, seeds, seedlings and resources useful to the project. We plan to reinvest future sales revenue in BioMil's continuity.
Production is in planning. Exchanges and sales depend on validation, clearance and availability.
A new destination starts here.
We can assess receiving materials or arrange collection. Tell us the material type, quantity and location.
Subject to assessment and prior arrangement. Photos help us understand the material.
