The State Foundation for Agricultural Research (Fundação Estadual de Pesquisa Agropecuária, or FEPA) is a Brazilian institution focused on agricultural research and the development of technologies that support sustainable farming practices. The foundation works to improve productivity, environmental management, and rural development by conducting research in areas such as crop production, livestock management, pest control, soil conservation, and water management.

FEPA plays a crucial role in enhancing agricultural practices and ensuring food security through innovation and the dissemination of research results. It collaborates with universities, research centers, and farmers to apply scientific knowledge to real-world agricultural challenges, contributing to the socioeconomic development of the region and the country.
