We continually
monitor the
conservation units
and water sources
at our plants
Preserving biodiversity
| 103-2 and 103-3: Biodiversity | 304-1 |
| 304-2 304-3|
Bearing in mind the rural property
areas in the Atvos Rural Environmental
Register (CAR), land partners and
sugarcane suppliers, we have a total
of 207,414 hectares including areas
of permanent preservation (APP) and
Legal Reserves, as well as 15,848.7
thousand hectares of areas mapped
out as protected or restored to create
ecological corridors for dealing with
animal species.
As the sugarcane plantation
expansion areas are converted to
grazing or farmland beforehand, there
are no impacts that could alter the
biodiversity existing in the region.
Nevertheless, we continually assess
the preservation areas and water
resources at our plants through
constant monitoring, in addition to
awareness campaigns among our
employees and the local communities
about taking care of species to avoid
roadkill and illegal hunting, and to
conserve the biodiversity.
We also analyze the water quality
in the areas directly influenced by
the plants, as well as surveys of
fauna, flora and other factors. Other
initiatives involve a Vehicle Safety
program to mitigate the risks of
roadkill by limiting the speed of
the machines, geo-referencing and
incident monitoring.

the GRI Appendix.
Use of materials
| 103-2 and 103-3: Materials | 301-1 |
The key materials used in our
operations, both in the fields and
in the industry, are sugarcane,
agricultural and industrial inputs
and fuel.
In 2019/2020, a total of 27,841,298
tons of materials were used, of which
27,358 were from renewable sources.
The total volume represents a slight
reduction of 1.3% in relation to the
amount consumed in 2018/2019,
which was 27,233,191 tons. | 301-1 |
