This research project aims to obtain information about wood harvesting, energy supply and carbon credit market using five both native and exotic forest species in experimental homogeneous and mixed plantation systems in the counties in Pará. Furthermore, as additional information, activities that open up new guidelines regarding fertilization, dissemination and phytosanitary aspects of the species in question will be carried out throughout eight actions plans. The species of interest are: paricá ...
