Brazil’s internationally networked conservatives and representatives of the influential agricultural sector have announced two counter-summits on the occasion of the upcoming COP30 in Belém. The first will be an agricultural conference on Oct. 3-4 in the city of Marabá in the state of Pará, organized by the Association of Independent Rural Producers of the Amazon (APRIA), which was founded at the end of last year.
