Riverside communities experience many deficiencies in electricity supply and basic sanitation. Regarding forest products management there is a dependency of açaí and limited use of other species. Thus, the project located at Ilha das Cinzas – Pará state, aims to: evaluate agroforestry systems with ‘pau mulato’ and other arboreal and agricultural species; generate actual technical indices to the management of native açaí grooves through its mapping and monitoring along with participating families ...

The TecRede project aims to generate technologies that would, in a short period of time, the development of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) cultivation in cage systems. The project chose the tambaqui to foment the development of cage fish farming since it is a fish native to Amapá, which has favorable domestic and international market demand, with production absorption capacity. The research network intends to determine the standardization of techniques and production systems based on Good Pr

The project aims to technically and scientifically support the development of aquaculture production of pirarucu (Arapaima gigas), with new technologies in the areas of nutrition and health. The physiological mechanisms for the validation of the use of immunostimulating products and probiotics that act as prophylactics for the cultivation of fingerlings and juveniles of pirarucu will be the basis of the study. The innovations obtained will be transferred to the productive sector, establishing
