  This project aims to compare the dynamics of a forest using techniques reduced impact logging (RIL) with another conventionally logging (CL) in a property the name Agrosete Farm (3 S, 50° W), in Paragominas, in the northeast of the State of Pará. The studies will be carried out in an area of 210 ha, of which 75 ha were operated conventionally, 105 ha were explored using RIL techniques and…

• Abstract

  Ecological restoration has been considered one of the main strategies for combining conservation and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystem services in agricultural production in Brazil, although there are still many bottlenecks in that area. In this research proposal, we designed five sections to investigate the challenges for forest restoration in highly-modified landscapes, with the…

  Notable is the biodiversity found in the Amazonian forest, that in part remains unknown. There are years traditional communities usufruct of the benefits of intrinsic products of the forest, being source of subsistence and alimentary security. The seeds, fruits, leves, oils, resins, tanning barks, rinds, lianas and roots are some of these products, also assigned as not timber forest produ…

• Abstract

  Due to the fast expanding agricultural and urban development and industrial the Brazilian savanna have lost much of their abundance by limiting their economic alternatives based on sustainable use of biodiversity. The management of Non Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) is one of the alternative income generations for rural communities who live in this biome, but the lack of knowledge and the…

• Abstract

  Management of non timber forest products (NTFPs) by local communities from tropical regions could potentially satisfy conservation and socio-economic demands. The conspicuous palm Euterpe edulis figures among the most important NTFPs sources from the Atlantic Forests of Brazil. Though there is a great body of scientific literature about E. edulis, there is a gap of knowledge on the variat…

• Abstract

  Over the past decades, non timber forest products have been assessed as relevant means of promoting rural development and conservation of ecosystems, however the economic potential has been thoroughly discussed in the literature. The present study aims to evaluate the economic from community and family management of tropical forest seeds by the household production theory, involving socia…
