Abstract Brazil is one of the major contributors to land‐use change emissions, mostly driven by agricultural expansion for food, feed, and bioenergy feedstock. Policies avoid deforestation related private commitments, economic incentives, other support schemes are expected improve effectiveness current command control mechanisms increasingly. However, until recently, land tenure was unknown much Brazilian territory, which has undermined governance native vegetation challenged incentive...
Brazil has global importance for food production and conservation of natural resources. The country plans to increase yields commitments decrease deforestation that require higher productivity. Plans policies the growth Brazilian agriculture, however, have been made without an integrated analysis harvest not supported by a universal metric regarding its efficiency. Applying methods model flows energy matter along supply chains agricultural from 1975 2006, we found crop cattle harvests their...
Monitoring is essential to ensure that environmental goals are being achieved, including those of sustainable agriculture. Growing interest in monitoring provides an opportunity improve practices. Approaches directly monitor land cover change and biodiversity annually by coupling the wall-to-wall coverage from remote sensing site-specific community composition DNA (eDNA) can provide timely, relevant results for parties interested success agricultural To measured impacts due projects not...
Abstract Consumer countries and blocs, including the UK EU, are defining legal measures to tackle deforestation linked commodity imports, potentially requiring imported goods comply with relevant producer countries’ land-use laws. Nonetheless, this measure is insufficient address global deforestation. Using Brazil’s example of a key exporter forest-risk commodities, here we show that it has ∼3.25 Mha natural habitat (storing ∼152.8 million tons potential CO 2 emissions) at high risk until...
Abstract: The Native Vegetation Protection Law - 2012 (NVPL) is the main Brazilian regulation for protecting native vegetation (NV) on private land. NVPL, currently in implementation phase, reduced Legal Reserves (LR) requirements compared to its previous version, 1965's Forest Act (FA), through several legal mechanisms. Among them, Article 68 (Art.68) exempts landholders from LR obligations if NV was converted without offending legislation place at time of conversion. technical Art....
The global trade of agricultural commodities has profound social-ecological impacts, from potentially increasing food availability and efficiency, to displacing local communities, incentivizing environmental destruction. Supply chain stickiness, understood as the stability in trading relationships between supply actors, moderates impacts commodity production possibilities for supply-chain interventions. However, what factors determine that is, how why farmers, traders, processors, consumer...
Abstract Consumer countries and blocs, including the UK EU, are defining legal measures to tackle deforestation linked commodity imports, potentially requiring imported goods comply with relevant producer countries’ land-use laws. Nonetheless, this measure is insufficient address global deforestation. Using Brazil’s example of a key exporter forest-risk commodities, here we show that it has ~3.25 Mha natural habitat (~152.8 million tons CO 2 ) at high risk until 2025. Additionally, country’s...
<em>Eucalyptus</em> forests are expanding worldwide and concerns exist about their impact on water resources. There is a lack of information the hydrological effects spatial harvest patterns in terms streamflow. In this paper, we examined amount hillslope position flow indices (Q70; Q50 Q10) yield small catchment covered with fast-growing plantation. To do that, used Gridded Surface Subsurface Hydrologic Analysis (GSSHA), physical-based distributed model, to simulate harvesting...

This study was conducted in Botucatu, Sao Paulo, Brazil, and had as objective to assess the influence of seasonality on water quality flow Lavapes River its tributaries. It were analyzed three physic-chemical parameters water, namely electrical conductivity (μS cm -1 ), pH temperature (oC). The measurement performed two occasions: being first September 2011, during dry season, second December same year, rainy season. results showed a positive correlation between period, electric pH, however,...

Foram analisados três parâmetros físico químicos água, saber: condutividade elétrica (μS cm -1 ), pH temperatura (ºC). As medições foram realizadas em duas oportunidades, sendo primeira Setembro 2011 durante época seca e, segunda, Dezembro mesmo...
In this paper, we analyze the economic and social impacts of different deforestation reduction scenarios in Brazil, using a detailed inter-regional, bottom-up, dynamic general equilibrium model. We build three information on land use from satellite imagery that comprises patterns by state biome. This includes agricultural suitability soil, biome state, as well classification between private public lands. Results show, for period under consideration, low aggregate losses reducing all...
