Biotechnological Reuse of Fruit Residues as a Rational Strategy for Agro-industrial Resources

Brazil, one of the largest agricultural producers in the world, has managed in recent years to significantly improve its production. However, in response to this advance in the agro-industrial sector, the generation of agro-industrial residues or sub-products has also increased, and its improper dis...
