The Sustainable Amazonian Landscapes (SAL) project closed the year with a voluntary agreement with the producers who stand to benefit from the project for the conservation, protection, and restoration of forests and sources of water on their farms.

This “pact,” which includes 126 hectares in natural regeneration and 24 farms in silvopastoral systems, was signed on 15 December in Florencia, Caquetá. It was the closing of a week of exchange of experiences in silvopastoral systems between producers of Yurimaguas (Peru), who will also benefit from the project, and who visited the farms of the producers in Caquetá with these systems.
