The project will:

  • Introduce rotational grazing and native-species based silvopasture cattle grazing, allowing for the sustainable intensification of currently unsustainable cattle farming, a key driver of deforestation in the Peruvian amazon
  • Reforest degraded pasture that is made available via the silvopasture model with mixed native species ARR, and
  • Contractually protect remnant standing forests on farms participating in the program.
