Abstract (Translated): 
This study estimates the potential economic impact of large-scale adoption of Biological Phosphate Solubilization (BPS) in soybean crops in Brazil. The central hypothesis is that BPS can represent an advance in sustainable agricultural production, bringing productivity gains and reducing economic costs. The methodology includes a comparison of experimental data with parameters of public policies for agricultural development. The results suggest that the adoption of this technology can boost soybean crop productivity (up to R$ 28.5 billion), reduce the need for chemical fertilization (savings up to R$ 15.7 billion), and contribute to the decarbonization of the Brazilian agricultural sector (savings up to R$ 1 billion).
