One of the first audits by third parties occurs in the scientific / academic model, with validation of the reports made to the survey biomass stocks of native forests that end in their quantification related to the carbon equivalent values, and are converted to UCS^VT BMV.

FEPAF / UNESP

unesp

The Foundation for Studies and Agricultural Research and Forestry based in the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences of UNESP - Universidade Estadual Paulista "Julio de Mesquita Filho" at Farm Experimental Lageado, and its main objective is to support economic, social and environmental development programs; established with UNESP and other institutions, through its main working tool is the joint.
