Cerro Largo and Treinta y Tres, Uruguay

Montes del Este afforestation through high quality timber in degraded grasslands

Afforestation through high quality timber in degraded grasslands. The project comprises a total of 4.314 ha of land previously under extensive grazing by beef cattle, on which afforestation for obtaining high-value, long-lived timber products and for sequestering large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere will be established. The project sequesters CO2 through forest plantation in degraded grassland areas, generating net anthropogenic removals by sinks
