Brazilian municipal agroforestry and farming initiatives

Overview

Brazilian municipalities are implementing initiatives to promote sustainable agriculture and support family farming. In São Gonçalo do Rio Abaixo, students from the ‘Bombeiro Mirim’ project engaged in practical lessons regarding Agroforestry Systems (SAF). These lessons, supported by the Secretariat of the Environment, taught students how to combine food crops like coffee, cocoa, and various fruits with tree planting to mimic natural ecosystems and protect soil health.

In Itabuna, the Secretariat of Agriculture and Environment (SEAGRIMA) expanded local engagement through field visits to the Piaçaveira community. These visits aimed to connect technical staff with small-scale and family farmers to identify investment needs, strengthen local agro-industries, and improve the quality of rural life.
