📋 Tender Overview
After its launch on June 12, the project is successfully advancing in the construction of the communal nursery that will produce more than 65 thousand forest seedlings to recover 120 hectares. degraded.The hills that for years have shown an arid and deforested landscape in the eastern area of Tingo Maria will begin to recover their greenery. What today are slopes with little vegetation, in the coming years will become forests that will beautify the city, protect the ecosystem and offer a new natural image for one of the main gateways to the Peruvian Amazon.
With this purpose, the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (MIDAGRI), through the Alto Huallaga Special Project (PEAH), promotes the project Improvement of Environmental Services through the Installation of Forest Plantations in the Eastern Zone of Tingo Maria, identified with CUI 2495439.
The initiative seeks to recover 120 degraded hectares by restoring forest cover, strengthening the conservation of natural resources, the protection of environmental services and the recovery of one of the main landscapes that surround the city. Over the years, this intervention will contribute to improving environmental quality, protecting water sources, conserving biodiversity and enhancing the tourist attraction of Tingo Maria.
The executive director of the PEAH, Ivan Nilton Almonacid Munoz, leads this important intervention together with local authorities, representatives of public institutions, civil society organizations and the 105 beneficiary families, who actively participate in a proposal aimed at sustainable development and environmental recovery in the province of Leoncio Prado.
Currently, the project is in the construction stage of the communal nursery, where 65,214 forest seedlings will be produced. Subsequently, the installation and maintenance of the plantations will be carried out on the 120 programmed hectares, accompanied by training and permanent technical assistance for the beneficiary families.
The species that will be installed include chuncho pine, guaba, red pashaco, lilac cedar, screw, paliperro, guayaquil bamboo, tropical eucalyptus, storax and tahuari, selected for their ability to restore ecosystems, conserve biodiversity and strengthen environmental services. In addition to their ecological and forestry value, several of these species will flower at certain times of the year, beautifying the landscape and offering a renewed image to the hills that surround the city.
Likewise, the project contemplates the formalization and strengthening of three conservation committees, promoting participatory and sustainable management of natural resources.
With this intervention, the PEAH reaffirms MIDAGRIs commitment to sustainable development, promoting an investment whose benefits will transcend reforestation. The recovery of the hills will allow the natural heritage of Tingo Maria to be preserved, strengthen its landscape identity and consolidate the city as one of the main tourist destinations in the Peruvian Amazon for future generations.
