Sustainable Forest Management

About the project

The forest has provided us with wood and oxygen. True Verde Alliance is focused on taking care of as much land as possible, ensuring a long and healthy life and productivity for the forests.

Background

When a forest is cleared for agriculture, it takes 100 years for it to recover. The area of primary forest worldwide has decreased by over 80 million hectares since 1990.

Our differentiator

Our project is based on the partial harvest of the forests and the collection of the smallest branches. Before cutting again, we give each forest plot the necessary time to recover the removed biomass through its growth. We also promote natural regeneration and restoration of degraded forests.

End result

Tree populations are balanced, and improved over time, and forest cover is maintained.

“A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people.”
