The direct beneficiaries of this technical cooperation will encompass approximately 2,500 producers and producer advisors across Argentina and Uruguay. The involvement of AAPRESID (No-Till Argentine Association; 1,800 members), AACREA (Argentine Association of Regional Consortia for Agricultural Experimentation; 2,163 members), AFA (Federated Argentine Farmers; 36,000 producer members), FUCREA (Uruguayan Federation of CREA Groups; 600 members), and AUSID (No-Till Uruguayan Association; 54 producer members) as associated organizations, particularly in dissemination, transfer, and training activities, ensures that this group of direct beneficiaries will be reached. The group of indirect beneficiaries remains highly speculative. However, knowing that farmers from these associations in Argentina and Uruguay are leaders in their fields, a very conservative estimate suggests that the project's impact will reach at least 10,000 indirect beneficiaries in the initial stage after the project's completion. Additionally, both emerging researchers and students who participate in this proposal will also be direct beneficiaries (those involved in training under the project) and indirect beneficiaries (those who will benefit from results published in subsequent literature).
