Water management and agricultural developments in Rio Grande

Overview

In Rio Grande do Norte, water management and agricultural support remain central focus areas. Authorities implemented water supply and irrigation restrictions to address scarcity and maintenance needs. The Companhia de Águas e Esgotos do Rio Grande do Norte (CAERN) scheduled reservoir cleaning that caused temporary service suspensions in Caicó and São Fernando. Additionally, the Institute of Water Management (Igarn) restricted usage in the Pataxó Canal and Pataxó River, utilizing a rotation system for irrigators to ensure equitable distribution.

Regarding agricultural support, the region is set to receive R$ 908.2 million in rural credit through the 2026/2027 Plano Safra, representing a 9% increase from the previous cycle. Recent reports confirm that approximately 74% of these funds, or R$ 670.2 million, is dedicated to family farming, while the remainder is reserved for corporate agriculture market credit operations.
