Who we are

 

Cuniã-Jacundá Integrated Management (GICJ) is the management proposal for three Federal Conservation Units, located in the state of Rondônia. These are: Cuniã Ecological Station (ESEC Cuniã), Jacundá National Forest (FLONA Jacundá) and Cuniã Lake Extractivist Reserve (RESUN Cuniã) (Read more about these CUs below). These conservation units are managed by the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation (ICMBio), an agency linked to the Ministry of the Environment.

 

The Experimental Farm of the Federal University of Amazonas - UFAM - covers an area of ​​3,000 hectares (3 x 10 km) of tropical rain forest. The farm is located at km 38 of highway BR-174 and limits to the south with the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) and to the north with the Experimental Station of Tropical Fruit Growing (EEFT) and Experimental Station of Silviculture Tropical (EEST), both belonging to INPA.

 

The Água Boa Experimental Field belongs to the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) in Roraima, approximately 35 km from the center of Boa Vista, along the BR-174 highway towards Manaus. Access to the Experimental Field is done by an extension of approximately four kilometers of ground road that connects the BR-174 to its headquarters.

 

The grid installation area covers approximately 616 ha of different habitats of seasonally flooded savannas.

 

The Cauamé Campus (Monte Cristo) belongs to the Federal University of Roraima (UFRR) and is located approximately 15 km from the center of Boa Vista, along highway BR-174 towards Pacaraima.

 

From BR-174 find the entrance ramp to Monte Cristo I and then access the path that leads to the Agricultural Sciences Center (CCA / UFRR). From here, follow a small dirt road of approximately 1 km that connects to the headquarters of the CCA and the experimental Campus.
