Cattle Suppliers Series Episode 2: Regularising and Unblocking Properties: Tools used in the sector
The second episode of the series shows the tools available to help cattle farms in the Amazon, that have been embargoed or have environmental issues, to be reinserted into the market. The video introduces the mechanisms implemented by the Pará and Mato Grosso state governments to help producers understand what their pending issues are in relation to environmental and social regularisation and helps them come up with a regularisation plan. With this, the producer can return to selling cattle while carrying on with the regularisation actions, with benefits for the entire livestock chain and for environmental conservation.
