They promote research in pine resins from the NEA
The forestry industry is one of the most important sectors in the economies of Misiones and Corrientes. Thousands of hectares of pine supply the paper, pulp, boards and sawmill industry. Pinus elliottii, one of the species established in the region, in addition to providing wood, is used to produce resin, a non-wood forest product with high demand in the chemical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. In 2\024, resin extraction of approximately 52,6\0\0 tons was achieved from approximately 18,\0\0\0,\0\0\0 trees in production, generating income and jobs with high expansion potential.
Experts cant believe it, but this tree is the oldest in the world and continues to bear fruit: it is 4,000 years old.
Nature keeps secrets that defy the passage of time, and one of the most surprising examples is a tree that, approximately 4,000 years old, continues to bear fruit today. This specimen has become a symbol of resistance and longevity, capable of surviving climate changes, landscape transformations and human activity itself.
