Portuguese term or phrase: a qualidade dos produtos da BASF é impar
Hi again! Would you translate the word "IMPAR" literally in this context?


Thanks!



Roberto de Almeida (Produtor de Soja, Tupaciguara/MG)

Meu nome é Roberto de Almeida, nasci aqui em Tupaciguara e trabalho na agricultura desde 1984. O início foi por influência do meu irmão que já era produtor rural, e ele me aconselhou a tentar também neste ramo. Ser produtor rural atualmente é uma maratona, pois é uma área difícil, não na parte interna, mas sim na parte externa da fazenda.


Ramon Bueno RTV BASF, Uberlândia / MG)

Eu cheguei na área por meio dos outros RTV´s que já estavam aqui e já tinham feito o levantamento dos clientes potenciais, dos quais alguns nós não estávamos atuando, entre os quais o senhor Roberto. Em minha opinião, nós não estávamos atuando por causa de uma falha em nossa distribuição que não conseguia cobrir toda a nossa área.


Roberto de Almeida (Produtor de Soja, Tupaciguara/MG)

Até o ano passado nós não trabalhávamos com produtos da BASF. Eu acho que o motivo foi o desconhecimento de revendas, que não nos visitava. Essa parceria que a Floema fez com a BASF reforçou muito o nosso negócio.


Mario Sergio Zanoto (Marinho) (Distribuidor Floema, Uberlândia / MG)

Essa parceria Floema – Basf encantou o Sr. Roberto por vários motivos, primeiro **a qualidade dos produtos da BASF é impar**. Ele mesmo chama a atenção por si só. Esse peso da marca agradou o Sr. Roberto. Segundo, o relacionamento com o pessoal da BASF, que nos dá todo o treinamento, faz o acompanhamento, monitora a fazenda, e o atendimento da pós-venda. Esse conjunto de fatores agradou o senhor Roberto.
