PLANTING

After the challenge ends, we at Meu Pé de Árvore will identify and select the areas that will be restored or that will have agroforestry implemented. These areas are located in the Legal Amazon, in the states of Rondônia and Amazonas.

After defining the location, we will evaluate the best species to be planted, taking into account soil conditions, temperature, precipitation and other important characteristics to ensure the healthy growth of the trees.

Hands on the ground! After all the study and planning, it’s time to plant. We will be present throughout the planting process, monitoring and supervising the seedlings to ensure they grow. We will also provide technical assistance to the partner who benefits from the planting on their property, ensuring the success of the restoration and agroforestry.

HOW WE DO IT

THE RESTORATION

To restore a degraded area in the Amazon, or in practically any other biome, it is essential to have an ecosystem of partners dedicated to making the initial restoration process viable through the planting of diverse trees. This ecosystem includes seed networks with local collectors who work collecting seeds from the forest, nurseries specializing in the production of seedlings of different species and farmers who establish partnerships with us to restore their Permanent Preservation Area (APP) areas or even for the creation of agroforestry systems. Each part of this ecosystem plays a fundamental role in environmental restoration, and it is this collaboration that allows us to advance in the recovery of degraded ecosystems.

Seedling production

Native seedlings are not produced with special attention. Starting by collecting seeds from hundreds of trees native to the region. Then these seeds are processed and selected to ensure quality and genetic diversity. In the nurseries, the seedlings are grown under control, resulting in robust seedlings that make restoration more effective.

Restoration project

The restoration project begins with the identification of farmers interested in recovering APP areas or creating agroforests. Our technicians visit the areas, collect soil samples and carry out a detailed survey, including planting areas. This helps you understand the needs of each location and choose the appropriate tree species.

Planting

Planting begins with the start of the rains in Rondônia, generally at the end of November. First, we fence the area and prepare the holes for planting seedlings and seeds. We fertilize the soil according to the analysis and use hydrogel to reduce losses. Planting is done in a collective effort, with beneficiaries and local helpers.

Maintenance and monitoring

During maintenance, we remove grass with brush cutters and control ants. In the first year, we replant seedlings that have not adapted to the new location (from the nursery to the degraded area) and install monitoring cameras, when necessary.

MONITORING

In the maintenance phase, we implement several measures to ensure the success of the project.

We use mowers to control grass growth, we adopt ant control strategies, we carry out replanting when necessary to replace seedlings that have not adapted to the new location (from the nursery to the degraded area) and we install fauna monitoring cameras, allowing us to monitor the animals that already frequent or will begin to inhabit the new area. In addition, we maintain continuous monitoring, both via satellite and in person, for a minimum period of three years. We will continue to monitor as long as these observation channels are operational, as we continue to expand our forest.

HOW WE DO

Planting trees

Planting will take place in Rondônia, in l12 Km 22 Gleba 08B Lot 16 in the Municipality of Ouro Preto do Oeste, State of Rondônia.

The seedlings will begin to be planted in November with the start of the rains in the Amazon region and will be completed by December 2023.

First, we fenced the area and prepared holes for planting seedlings and seeds. In some situations, we also plant "green manures", such as legumes, which help to recover the soil and suppress grass growth more quickly. Our choice of fertilizers is based on soil analysis, and we incorporate hydrogel to minimize water losses. Planting is a joint collaboration, involving beneficiaries and hiring local helpers to ensure the success of this essential stage of the project. Below, you can view photos of the entire process, from seed collection to planting.
