Impactos Socioeconômicos das Plantações Florestais no Niassa, Moçambique

The aim of this research was to assess the socioeconomic impacts of forest plantations in the householders’ livelihood in the Niassa province communities, northern Mozambique. Were conducted semi-structured interviews with 423 households in communities around the forest companies, forest plantation managers and the govern local senior members of the govern. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, considering the period before and after implementation of forestry companies. The results showed improvements in the livelihood of the householders, especially those who are employed in forestry companies. The presence of forestry companies reduced dependence and accessibility of families in relation to forest resources due to increasing distances from the sources of production.

Mecanismo de Desenvolvimento Limpo Florestal e a Heveicultura no Estado do Acre

The objective of this paper is to generate economic information on rubber tree (Hevea spp.) plantations included in the carbon market under the clean development mechanism (CDM), deployed in the state of Acre, Brazil. To this end, considering data from local heveiculture projects, Net Present Value (NPV), Land Expectation Value (LEV), and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) were quantified for theses reforestations. Based on the results obtained, we conclude that reforestation with rubber trees for carbon sequestration under Forestry CDM may be feasible in the state of Acre, thus strengthening the forest-based economy of the region, provided that the income generated from these plantations is not reduced by more than 20% compared with the average value obtained at the time of this study.

Dinâmica das Exportações de Mel Natural Brasileiro no Período de 2000 a 2011

This study aimed to describe the dynamics of the Brazilian exports of natural honey in the 2000-2011 period. To this end, a literature survey on exports of natural honey was carried out at the following reference data sources: SEBRAE, IBGE, Aliceweb, and UNcomtrade. The concentration ratio (CR) methodology was also applied to define the degree of concentration; this calculation was based on the participation of the four and the eight largest Brazilian export markets. The results showed that Brazil evolved from a low volume of exports in 2000 to the 5th place in world exports in 2011, exporting mainly to the United States, Germany, United Kingdom, Canada, Spain and Belgium. The United States and Germany participated with more than 80% of the total Brazilian exports of natural in the period studied, indicating a high market concentration proven by the methodology applied.

Rentabilidade Econômica do Arrendamento de Terra para Cultivo de Eucalipto em São Paulo

The present study aimed to analyze the leasing of land for the cultivation of eucalyptus in Vale do Paraiba, Sao Paulo state, Brazil. We used information from 10 properties, eight landowners, a pulp and paper company, and an investor in forestry assets. The economic tools used were the Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Land Expectation Value (LEV). Considering a minimum attractiveness rate of 8.75%, the cultivation of eucalyptus with investment in land in the study area was economically viable for only five of the properties analyzed. With the guarantee of productivity established in the contract, the investment was feasible for land lease, but uneconomical for the investor. Ensuring productivity was important to maintain economic viability for the investor and the lessee, considering that without productivity assurance only three properties showed economic viability for land lease.

Avaliação Financeira do Sequestro de Carbono na Serra de Baturité, Brasil, 2012

The aim of this study was to estimate the biomass and CO2 sink and evaluate the economic viability of the generation of carbon credits in the Environmentally Protected Area (EPA) of Serra de Baturite, Ceara state, Brazil. The assessment of aboveground biomass was estimated by the non-destructive method, and the economic criteria used to evaluate were the Net Present Value (VPL), Equivalent Annual Value (EAV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR). The results show that the rainforest of the Serra de Baturite EPA sequestered 84.63 MtCO2e and that, according to market prices and costs in 2012, forestry projects for carbon sequestration can generate an EAV of R
