EUCALYPTOLOGICS brings you today as a part of our Global Resource Maps a visual summary of the key Eucalyptus forestry statistics for Brazil by 2008, printable as a 100 x 75 cm poster. Of course, it is quite possible that if you print it, you are doing so on an Eucalyptus pulp based paper sheet, also possibly certified as sustainably produced.
(Click image to enlarge, download and print your poster for free. 1600 x 1200 px, 1.6 MB. A larger 2800 x 2100 px version is available upon request)100 years after Edmundo Navarro de Andrade started the first successful industrial scale planting of Eucalyptus at Paulista Railroads, more than 4 billion Eucalyptus trees of over 150 species grow in the different climates of Brazil. Just a handful of them are prevalent but they have become a strategic timber resource of such a magnitude as to make of Brazil an Eucalyptus Agricultural Superpower with a global impact.
3.75 million hectares of highly productive sustainably managed cultivated forests sourcing the majority of industrial timber to supply an expanding pulp and paper industry able to meet domestic demand and participate at once in the export market-oriented economies of Brazilian primary sector. Ordem e Progresso.
