The S\u00e3o Roque neighborhood in Munhoz\/MG will soon have a new native forest forming. The initiative is from the Copa\u00edba Environmentalist Association, which is supporting forest restoration in the region.<\/p>\n
This time the planting took place at S\u00edtio do Espraiado, owned by Fabr\u00edcio Duarte, who is a partner in Verde Novo, a project carried out by Copa\u00edba, sponsored by Petrobras, through the Petrobras Socio-environmental Program.<\/p>\n
The period is appropriate. The rains contribute to the good development of the seedlings, which will grow quickly and, in approximately two years, will become small trees. The seedlings, donated by Copa\u00edba, were planted around a spring. \u201cNative vegetation around springs contributes to better water infiltration into the soil, favoring continuous water recharge from the mine. Thus, even in periods of drought, the water may even reduce, but there is less risk of drying up\u201d, explains Fl\u00e1via Balderi, coordinator of the Verde Novo project.<\/p>\n
In total, more than 1,000 seedlings of trees native to the Atlantic Forest were planted. Small plantations, carried out in partnership with landowners, are essential for the recovery of native forests in the region. Thanks to the support that Copa\u00edba is offering, in addition to the dedication of rural landowners, many forests will be formed.<\/p>\n
By the end of 2019, 150,000 tree seedlings will be planted in partnership with landowners. Registration to receive this support is open.<\/p>\n
How to participate<\/strong><\/p>\n Landowners in the region interested in recovering the forests on their properties can contact Copa\u00edba to receive support. Registration is done at the institution's headquarters. A visit is scheduled for evaluation and elaboration of the technical project. After evaluating the area, Copa\u00edba technicians also offer guidance before, during and after planting, making several visits to the property.<\/p>\n The seedlings are delivered already fertilized, avoiding this cost to the owner. In addition to seedlings, Copa\u00edba also offers inputs to help planting, such as hydrogel and ant-killer, to control ants.<\/p>\n Contact can be made by phone (19) 99953-8382 or by email to verdenovo@copaiba.org.br, or at the institution's headquarters, located in the Pedra Branca\/Visconde do Soutelo neighborhood, in Socorro \u2013 SP.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" O bairro S\u00e3o Roque em Munhoz\/MG, ter\u00e1, em breve uma […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4458,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4457","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sem-categoria"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4457","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4457"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4457\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4459,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4457\/revisions\/4459"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4458"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4457"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4457"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/copaiba.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4457"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
