REVIEW AND PROSPECTS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FORESTRY IN THE STATE OF PARA<br />

This study aimed to a<strong>na</strong>lyze the forestry sector in the state of Pará and trace its possibilities for<br />

expansion, primarily through planted forests (eucalyptus and paricá). One has to consider that the<br />

demand for wood products is growing and that the forest sector is undergoing changes that seek to<br />

increase production without cutting down the rain forest. For all these reasons, it is necessary to<br />

implement a set of measures ranging from support and government regulation (such as credit and<br />

subsidies to the verticalization of the industry) to change the design by farmers about the importance<br />

of maintaining the forest or exploit it sustai<strong>na</strong>bly. Thus, it is believed that, with the potential to possess,<br />

the expansion of forestry to happen, especially in areas already degraded with increased productivity<br />

and value, becoming a tool for local sustai<strong>na</strong>ble development.<br />
