Agroforestry

Our agroforestry projects began in 2003 in Senahú, Alta Verapaz, with three objectives:

Protect river basins and strengthen water recharge through the conservation of forests and plantations.

Create new job opportunities for the communities near our hydroelectric projects.

Make sustainable use of the land in Senahú, Alta Verapaz.

Rubber plantations
557 ha

Rubber

Since 2009 we have used 557 hectares suitable for rubber plantations to ensure the reforestation of our river basins and water sources and the conservation of the land. The plantations provide continuous employment 10 months a year, in 30-year production cycles, producing high-quality latex and solids for national and international markets.

Pine and white cedar forest plantations
389 ha

Forestry

To conserve the land and diversify crops, we have 89 hectares of pine and 300 hectares of white cedar (palo blanco). These long-term crops, with harvest cycles of 20 to 25 years, conserve soils and water sources and protect species of flora and fauna.

Protected virgin rainforest
1,000 ha

Virgin rainforest

Conserved, protected and registered with the National Forest Institute (INAB), these forests are the main habitat for more than 700 species of flora and fauna in the north of the country.
