The Ipanema 203, Embraer’s ethanol-powered agricultural aircraft, continues to lead the Brazilian crop dusting market, holding approximately 60% market share. With over 180 units sold in the last three years, it has become the preferred choice among rural producers seeking productivity, precision, and low operating costs.
Celebrating 20 years of operations powered by 100% ethanol, the Ipanema 203 is a pioneer in the use of biofuel for aviation. Its environmentally conscious powertrain delivers high efficiency while reducing carbon emissions, aligning with sustainable farming practices.
Equipped with a wide range of optional features, the Ipanema 203 is capable of spraying over 200 hectares per hour—an output equivalent to up to four ground sprayers working simultaneously. The aircraft applies treatments without compacting soil or spreading pests by contact, and can improve yields by up to 15 bags more per hectare.
Combining tradition, technological advancement, and cost-effective performance, the Ipanema 203 remains a standout tool for modern agricultural operations.
