National Clean Field Day
Every year, on August 18, the results of the System are celebrated during the National Clean Field Day. The celebrations, which are organized by receiving units with the support of inpEV, distribution channels, and public and private organizations, also draw attention to the importance of environmental conservation.
In 2017, the official opening occurred at the Campo Limpo Plastic Recycling and Transformation, in Taubaté (SP), with the presence of state government representatives, entities of the agricultural area and inpEV employees. The ceremony also marked the end of the Project for Final Disposal of Obsolete Products in the state of São Paulo (learn more on pg. 58). Around 70,000 people participated. The event was covered live by the Terra Viva Channel.
Campo Limpo Environmental Educational Program
The Campo Limpo Environmental Educational Program (PEA), created by inpEV in partnership with the receiving units, supports educational institutions to complement the syllabus of 4th and 5th-grade Elementary School students on topics related to the environment.
“Shared responsibility: schools and waste challenges” was the theme of the teaching materials specially developed for the program in 2017, which involved 2,380 schools and more than 228,000 4th and 5th-grade Elementary School students, mobilized by 104 receiving units in 22 states.
PEA works in schools in the vicinity of the receiving units by promoting environmental awareness. All this work is in line with the National Curriculum Parameters (PCNs) of the Ministry of Education (MEC).

agroPEA
Since 2016, the Institute also promotes agroPEA, which focuses on undergraduate agronomy, agricultural engineering and animal husbandry students, as well as students of technical courses in the areas of performance of the Campo Limpo System. The program includes standardized lectures, distribution of materials, and an e-learning course (EAD) of the Campo Limpo System.
In 2017, 47 educational institutions from all over Brazil participated in the program, involving more than 3,800 students.
e-Learning
inpEV offers a Campo Limpo System e-learning course on its website free of charge, which contains information on the legislation that regulates the disposal of empty crop protection packaging, the responsibilities of each link of the chain involved, the work done by the receiving units and proper final disposal (recycling or incineration). Students who finish the course can print a certificate of participation.
The EAD was released in 2007 on its web version and redesigned in 2015. Since then, it was accessed by students from 26 states of Brazil, among which are farmers, college students, agricultural inspectors, employees of member companies, entrepreneurs, traders and distributors, among others.
