Seed Collection, Processing, and Storage Course

In the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, the forest restoration chain in Brazil faces challenges in properly producing seedlings of native species. In Brazil, there are more than 30,000 native plant species that can potentially be used in forest restoration. Knowing the best techniques for collecting, processing, and storing seeds of native species is one of the crucial points for promoting successful environmental recovery actions.

Strategy for Conservation and Sustainable Use of Reservoir Surroundings

The surroundings of artificial reservoirs present significant ecological challenges due to human activities and the impacts generated by the construction and operation of the reservoir. The conservation of biodiversity and the sustainable use of the areas around the reservoir are essential to mitigate the negative effects on the local ecosystem. Therefore, proper planning is fundamental to preserve areas of native vegetation, restore degraded areas, and ensure the continuity of the region’s ecological function.
