FORESTRY SYNERGY

This project has been implemented since 2017 between UPM Forestal Oriental and the Producers Associated with our programme that focuses on breeding livestock. It aims to promote teamwork amongst Associate Producers, improving their herds by sharing advanced genetics, as well as continuing the integration between livestock, forestry and communities.

How does it work?

During the season for the sale of breeding livestock UPM Forestal Oriental attends the auctions of its Associate Producers

Participating herds offer special conditions and benefits to other producers in the Forestry Development Programme at the time of purchase

As part of the agreement, UPM Forestal Oriental advertises information related to the auctions and the genetics of herds among its Associated Producers. Furthermore, it contributes to an educational or social institution chosen by each vendor

Eleven herds participated in 2023: La Estela Campo Norte S.A. Manantial Verde Las Anitas La Empastada San José del Yaguarí Las Piedras El Yatay Santa María Los Principios Don Juan de Rolón
