The provincial director of forests and protected areas of the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, Luciana Manelli, stressed that ?80% of the forests that the province has are yellow category, which means that most producers can present forest management projects with integrated livestock. This allows you to keep the mountain in foot, mitigate the climate change, mitigate the climate change, mitigate the climate change, mitigate the climate change, mitigate the climate change, Generate a livestock production with added value. ? These trials show that we have enormous potential to produce wood and environmental services in soils that are underutilized today or have productive limitations, he said. The day closed with a participatory workshop, where barriers and incentives were analyzed for the growth of the sector in Santa Fe. The contributions of the attendees will be systematized and will be presented in a report with return to the participants.
