    The main objective of the project reforestation of pasture areas in the Sociedad Agrícola de Interés Social (SAIS) "José Carlos Mariategui" – Joven Forestal Project is to establish 1450 hectares of forest plantations, using three exotic species of genus Pinus: Pinus radiata, Pinus patula and Pinus pseudostrobus, it will be achieved with carbon credits, improve conservation soils and water regimes, to help improve environmental conditions and protection of biodiversity. This project is politically located within Cachachi, Jesus and Cospas districts in the province and department of Cajamarca - Perú. The proposed activities of reforestation for carbon sequestration are part of a more global project "Joven Forestal Project”, which includes components of technical training, organization, establishment of plantations and creation of credits in the carbon sequestration.
