Technical Report
Full-text available
Nesta Nota Técnica, apresentamos os desafios enfrentados para o cumprimento das normas vigentes e destacamos oportunidades para viabilizar a cadeia produtiva de sementes nativas, especialmente para grupos e redes de coletores de sementes de base comunitária, compostos por agricultores familiares, comunidades tradicionais e indígenas e assentados da...
Article
South Amazon forests have been highly deforested, including the legally protected riparian forests. The Xingu watershed restoration program used direct seeding of native trees to restore 5000 ha of forests from 2006 to 2018. Direct seeding is a low cost method, easy-to-implement at large scales. The literature on this method concludes that only a f...
Article
Direct seeding is considered a feasible alternative for large-scale forest restoration, but little is known about the successional trajectory of tropical forests restored through direct seeding. To validate this method, we must understand how it changes forest structure and species richness and shapes the community trajectory as compared to the sta...

As reservas extrativistas, um dos legados do movimento organizado dos seringueiros do qual Chico Mendes foi um dos grandes protagonistas, foram idealizadas como proposta de desenvolvimento para Amazônia e para os povos da floresta, alternativa ao modelo estatal hegemônico, de características ambientalmente predatórias e socialmente excludentes. Des...

Large‐scale restoration programs in the tropics require large volumes of high quality, genetically diverse and locally adapted seeds from large number of species. However, scarcity of native seeds is a critical restriction to achieve restoration targets. In this paper, we analyze three successful community‐based networks that supply native seeds an...
Chapter
The 280,000 km² of indigenous lands and protected areas (ILPAs) of the Xingu river basin form a continuous forest corridor inhabited by 25 indigenous peoples and about 185 riverine (ribeirinho) families. Spanning one of the world's most intense deforestation zones in Pará and Mato Grosso states, the Xingu ILPAs exemplify how Brazilian government po...

Government regulations have created new markets for non-timber forest products such as tropical forest seeds for ecological restoration and agroforestry in Brazil. This paper examines whether and how participation in the seed market has affected assets that will shape households' ability to pursue new livelihood opportunities. These impacts may var...

No final de 2007 nascia a Rede de Sementes do Xingu, que tinha como principal objetivo disponibilizar sementes para os plantios de restauração implantados pelo Instituto Socioambiental (ISA) no âmbito da Campanha “Y Ikatu Xingu” na região mato-grossense da bacia do rio Xingu. A iniciativa cresceu e conseguiu unir agricultores familiares, produtores...

Direct seeding proved to cost less than planting seedlings (approximately US$2000/ha, compared with US$5000/ha) and to be more practical, since seeds are easier to carry and to plant. To plant one hectare, approximately 60 kilos of seeds of native trees (200 000 seeds) are mixed with 100 000 seeds of annual and subperennial legumes and sand, in a m...

The Y Ikatu Xingu Campaign brought together indigenous people, farmers, researchers, governmental, and non-governmental organizations seeking riparian forest restoration in the Xingu watershed, in west-central Brazil. Forest restoration is challenging in the region because of scarce nurseries, long distances, and high costs associated with the usua...

The 280 000 km² Xingu indigenous lands and protected areas (ILPAs) corridor, inhabited by 24 indigenous peoples and about 215 riverine (ribeirinho) families, lies across active agriculture frontiers in some of the historically highest-deforestation regions of the Amazon. Much of the Xingu is anthropogenic landscape, densely inhabited and manag...

This paper discusses the importance of quality mappings for permanent preservation areas (APPs) when seeking the rural environmental regulations. In this article we attempted to perform mappings checks to confront it with maps that were approved by the Secretary of State for Environment of Mato Grosso. These mappings were conducted in four areas, w...
