SUMMARY
Agro Legal Program The Agro Legal Program aims to promote the regularization of Legal Reserve areas in rural properties in the State of São Paulo, as well as to prioritize the maintenance of areas along river banks and springs, top of hills, and veredas. The Program seeks to establish quick and safe geoprocessing
mechanisms for analysis and consolidation of the Rural Environmental Registry. It also intends to design simplified processes to monitor restoration of native vegetation in Permanent Preservation Areas and Legal Reserves, considering deadlines and guidelines compatible with agricultural activities.
Program goals aligned with Sustainable Development Goals
