The Plant Breeding Brazilian Association (SBMP, in Portuguese) and the Center for Strategic Studies and Management in Science, Technology and Innovation (CGEE, in Portuguese), with the support of the Ministry of Agriculture, conducted a survey aiming to collect and to make available, the Brazilian competence in plant breeding. Such survey is organized in a databank held by the SBMP and the CGEE. Also, a summary of the collected information is available in the publication "Competences in Genetic Plant Breeding in Brazil" recently edited by the Brazilian Association of Plant Breeding. The main aspects of such survey are presented here.
