The Tucano Sustainable Yield State Forest (Portuguese: Floresta Estadual De Rendimento Sustentado Tucano) is a state forest in the state of Rondônia, Brazil.
Location
[edit | edit source]The Tucano Sustainable Yield State Forest is in the municipality of Cujubim, Rondônia. It has an area of 660 hectares (1,600 acres).[1] It adjoins the larger Mutum State Forest to the east.[2] The forest is in the north east of the state in the Machado River basin, at an altitude of about 100 metres (330 ft). The soils are mostly red-yellow latosols. The forest has a resident population.[3]
History
[edit | edit source]The forest was originally one of the "blocks" of the 1984 Cujubim settlement project.[3] A management plan for the project's reserves was defined in 1996 in cooperation with the Plan Agropecuario y Forestal de Rondônia (Planafloro: Rondônia Agriculture and Forestry Plan).[3]
The Tucano Sustainable Yield State Forest was created by state decree 7.603 of 8 October 1996 with an area of about 659.56 hectares (1,629.8 acres). The Secretaria de Estado do Desenvolvimento Ambiental (SEDAM) was given administrative responsibility. The purpose was to provide a space for sustained production of renewable forest resources with natural regeneration, to ensure productive capacity of the forest with minimal alteration of ecosystems.[4] The forest is part of the Southern Amazon Mosaic, recognized in 2011.[5]
