Carbon Offsets (Credits)
The
sharply expanding markets for greenhouse gas and renewable energy
credits opens virtually unlimited investment opportunities in the
cerrados. Tens of millions of hectares of inexpensive cerrado land
can be planted to eucalyptus and other species at low cost. Easily
accessed areas of Western Bahia hold the promise for planting millions
of hectares of trees. While as yet, AgBrazil professes no special
expertise regarding the new carbon credits markets emerging on the
New York Mercantile Exchange, we have significant insight into land
investment for forestry activities in the cerrados.
Large
tracts of land ar available for eucalyptus planting for R$300/ha
or less in accessible locations. If you are considering investment
in renewable energy credits, Brazil's cerrados offer excellent opportunities.
