Within the framework of IBDF (Instituto Brasileiro de Desenvolvimento Florestal, the
Brazilian Institute of Forest Development), a new nation-wide Commission has recently been
created on forest tree seeds (Commissão Técnica de Sementes Florestais). The terms of
reference of this new Commission are to coordinate the production, importation, exportation
and utilization of both native and exotic tree seed; the advise of the Commission will be
sought by IBDF for all reforestation schemes considered for inclusion in the Federal fiscal
incentives scheme controlled by them. |
