I KNOWLEDGE TO SCALE
NATIVE SPECIES
SILVICULTURE
Developing technology and adapting
to legislation are two crucial factors
for planting more native trees.
In 2020, we advanced in
mounting the R&D Program in
Silviculture of Native Species.
The initiative is led by the Brazilian
Coalition on Climate, Forests, and
Agriculture and supported by WRI
Brasil and a consortium of experts and
institutions. In the same Coalition,
we participated in creating a task
force to work on four themes: R&D,
Market, Financing and Investments,
and Regulatory Framework.
We published the "Implications of
Brazilian Legislation on Planting
Native Forests for Economic
Gains" study, which assessed the
legal framework on restoration and
reforestation for economic gains at
the federal level and in three states.
We will continue to support the
improvement of the regulatory
environment so entrepreneurs can
act in accordance with the established
rules and with legal certainty.

REGULATION OF
NATIVE PLANTING
IN MINAS GERAIS
With support from WRI Brasil, the state
of Minas Gerais approved a decree
that regulates the production of native
wood from reforestation. By offering
legal certainty for producers to invest
in the activity, the decree has the
potential to scale a restoration economy
in the state. The WRI global network
highlighted the advancement among
the most expressive results of 2020.View entire presentation
