The last area planted at the Baltimori restoration sites with Go Forest’s support is located in the northeastern part of the region (as can be seen in the map). This land was previously cleared by its former owner to grow corn: a common agricultural practice in parts of the Amazon. While corn has been a staple crop in South America for thousands of years, its large-scale cultivation has contributed significantly to deforestation, especially when driven by market demands and short-term profits. In this case, the forest was cut down to make space for corn monocultures, which can quickly deplete soil nutrients and disrupt local biodiversity.

Now, thanks to restoration efforts, the landscape is being transformed. The once-barren field is becoming a thriving ecosystem again, home to dozens of native tree species. By reintroducing diverse flora, the site is regaining its ecological richness and beginning to offer important benefits like carbon capture, improved soil health, and habitat for local wildlife.
