AmazonPasto: An app for the future

Posted by ap873

30 September 2021

Our partners in Brazil, Insituto Ouro Verde (IOV), are launching a new mobile phone app that gives information to small family farmers about trees that are useful in tree based agriculture and grazing systems. This is a really exciting development that can potentially make a huge difference to the ultimate reach of the project. IOV have designed it so the farmers can upload information about their favourite trees, thereby improving the underlying data, so it’s a two way system.

AmazonPasto is more than an application to discover the most suitable native tree species for pastures. It is an environment in which producers, technicians and students can interact to exchange experiences so that, together, they can structure more resilient and productive production systems.

Join Toby Pennington who will be speaking at the online launch of the app on the 30th September.
