The Sustainable Landscapes in Pantanal project began in 2020, a partnership between IPÊ – Institute for Ecological Research, Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI), Ecoa – Ecology and Action, and Embrapa Pantanal.

The proposal is to understand what sustainable landscapes are in the Pantanal and to speed up the certification process for sustainable farms, in addition to efforts with Embrapa Pantanal to expand the Sustainable Pantanal Farm certification to the entire biome.

Certifications can mainly bring economic benefits for owners, such as credit facilities and tax reductions.
