ConclusionsSoy Moratorium
• Monitoring 98% of the soybeans grown
in the Amazon Biome since 2006
• Commitment: Signatories will not trade
soybeans produced in areas of the
Amazon Biome deforested after July
2008.
• In the 2017 crop soybeans have been
identified on 47,365 hectares of
deforestation since 2008.
• These 47,365 hectares in non-
conformity with the Soy Moratorium
correspond to 1.2% of the bioma
deforestation.

ConclusionsConclusions
• Macaúba “chain”
• There is no Market (it is yet not a “chain”)
• Biodiesel program can play an importante role (oil production)
• Inclusion of smallholders in a very complex task
• There are some interesting initiatives (e.g. Soleá agro)
• Very interesting alternative for pig and mainly dairy production (integration forest
+pasture) = Low carbon agriculture program
• Interesting (economic and technical) research opportunities on feed
alternatives for livestock production
• Trends
• Paris agreement (USA withdraw and sanctions(?), Brazil withdraw (?), protest, ....
