This project will provide two sources of income based on forest products, in the short term native palm foliage that is exported, ?xate?, ?quip? o ?pacayina?, will be planted below natural forest shade, enriching natural occurring plants of the same species and conserving those that are already there, the leaves of the palms are sold to exporters, to maintain the natural production the stakeholders are going to plant avocado trees, a native species, on partially degraded areas and are going to use the shade provided by the trees to plant the palm plants. Once the avocados begin fruit production they are going to sell the fruits too. Project objectives are: to establish permanent plantations of palms and avocado trees conserving and improving natural occurring rainforests, to improve community income through sustainable non-timber forestry activities and to train local stakeholders on forestry related themes
