ARR
Afforestation, Reforestation and Restoration
These are projects that generate carbon credits from the reforestation and restoration of areas that have been without forest for at least 10 years. This mechanism helps rural producers in the process of environmentally regularizing their property, as well as promoting new sources of income.
Depending on the conditions and characteristics of the area to be reclaimed, brCarbon uses a method or arrangement that best suits its needs:
- Direct sowing ("muvuca");
- Planting seedlings;
- Natural regeneration;
- Agroforestry Systems (SAFs).

Accelerated restoration
Brazil has a gigantic environmental challenge, as big and important as halting illegal deforestation.
72.9 million ha
deforested in the Amazon, 17% of the biome
(PRODES/INPE)
135 million ha
of native vegetation may be degraded or at risk
(MapBiomas)
69 million ha
of pastures with moderate or severe degradation
(LAPIG/2021)
12 million ha
is the official target for reclaiming native vegetation by 2030
(NDC Brasil – PLANAVEG/2017)
16 million ha
of degraded Legal Reserves in rural properties
(CSR/UFMG)
3 million ha
of degraded APPs in rural properties
(CSR/UFMG)
R$ 228 billion
Estimated reclamation cost
(Instituto Escolhas/2023)
40 million ha
is the official target for degraded pasture restoration by 2033
(NDC Brazil)
The scalability of a carbon project and the credits it generates are key factors in making it viable and expediting the reclamation of degraded areas and the environmental compliance of rural properties.

Check out what some landowners have been saying
“The partnership has been very good for me. Today the Pratigi Project is like the flagship of our company: protecting the environment. We depend on big companies to buy our products, and they're very connected. When they get here, they ask how we're preserving the springs, how the PPAs have been maintained... So, we're ahead of the game.”
“We have to worry about the forest, it plays a very noble role, such as being responsible for rain corridors, for example. Furthermore, another advantage for landowners in participating in projects like the Emas-Taquari is that they can regularize land with environmental liabilities.”
