Additional Metric Notes

Rationale: Total area may be disaggregated by relevant designations, such as High Carbon Stock (HCS) forests or areas with High Conservation Values (HCVs). It may also be split by ecosystem type (e.g., forest, wetland, grassland, savannah) or business activity. This metric should be measured on an annual or biannual basis. The scope should include both direct operations and the supply chain, in accordance with the specific regulations or frameworks being followed. Key resources: SBTN-Land; OP2B Additional/complementary metrics: Disaggregation by ecosystem type Legally required vs voluntary (where jusridictional requirements exist) Financial investment in activity Landscape deep dives: Cerrado, BR - soy (+ corn/cotton rotation) - Key indicator for this biome which is a hotspot for terrestrial ecosystem conversion Landscape-specific metrics: may include area of degraded pastureland restored to natural habitat Key resources: MapBiomas (for detailed real time information): https://brasil.mapbiomas.org/en/ Araticum (offers data on restoration, natural regeneration and water): https://araticum.lapig.iesa.ufg.br/ BR National Plan for native vegetation restoration (Planaveg): https://cooperacaobrasil-alemanha.com/Mata_Atlantica/Planaveg_ingles.pdf BR National Development Bank (BNDES) investment program for restoration: https://www.bndes.gov.br/SiteBNDES/bndes/bndes_en/conteudos/noticia/BNDES-creates-matchfunding-to-invest-up-to-BRL-500-million-in-forest-recovery-with-support-from-partners/
