  • Project description
    This project implemented by The Nature Conservancy will invest in mobilizing communities (associations, syndicates, rural producers and also state and federal government) in 12 municipalities, 7 in Mato Grosso and 5 in Pará, that are interested in participating in the CAR - Cadastro Ambiental Rural (Rural Environmental Registry) and and carrying out deforestation monitoring through satellite imagery. The project will incentivize the environmental regulation of the wood, cattle and soy beans production chain, which are believed to be causing deforestation. The rural producers will participate in data collection through field research and remote sensing.
