For the 2024\u20132025 cycle, the program recorded a total of 2,387,985 trees planted throughout the national territory, with Guanacaste and Alajuela being the leading provinces in this effort.<\/p><p>This edition registered a wide variety of species\u2014146 in total. AGROMIRA contributed both forest and fruit tree species, including Dama, Cupania, Cortez Negro, Casco de Venado, Corteza Amarillo, Rubber Tree, Cannonball Tree, Lorito, Cocobolo, Guapinol, Green Mam\u00f3n, Water Apple, Soursop, Cas, Orange, Cherry, and others.

These numbers don\u2019t just represent trees \u2014 they represent hope for future generations,\u201d said Mr. Felipe Vega, Executive Director of the ONF.<\/p><p>This program aligns with AGROMIRA\u2019s ecological restoration and reforestation approach. Many of the trees were planted in biological corridors, areas with potential for ecological connectivity, or in spring zones and riverbanks \u2014 as was the case for AGROMIRA.<\/p><p>These actions are part of the legacy of AGROMIRA 2025, an event that brought together more than 300 people from over 20 countries on CATIE\u2019s campus, aiming to offset the carbon footprint generated. They also support the principles of the Ecological Blue Flag award, which AGROMIRA earned with a perfect score of 100.<\/p><p>AGROMIRA 2025 formed an alliance with the Union of ASADAS of Turrialba and Jim\u00e9nez (UNATUJI) to reforest water capture, recharge, and protection areas.<\/p><p>These 550 trees were made possible thanks to the donation of 200 trees by Upala Agr\u00edcola and 350 by the nursery of the Costa Rican Electricity Institute (ICE), located in Cach\u00ed, Cartago, coordinated by MINAE\u2013SINAC Turrialba.<\/p><p>\u201cWe hope to continue contributing during the 2025\u20132026 period through further tree planting and working toward more sustainable communities for the well-being of the environment, while deepening AGROMIRA\u2019s and its participants\u2019 commitment to carbon footprint compensation,\u201d said Anthony Gamboa, from the AGROMIRA 2025 Technical Committee.<br><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Soy Siembrat\u00f3n\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7vAFxNmS8nI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><br><br><br><\/p><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><p class=\"translation-block\"><strong>More information:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Anthony Gamboa&nbsp;<br>AGROMIRA Technical Committee&nbsp;<br>Specialist in Sustainable Agribusiness&nbsp;<br>Unit for Environmental Economics and Sustainable Agribusiness (UEAAS\/EfD)&nbsp;<br>CATIE&nbsp;<br><a href=\"mailto:anthony.gamboa@catie.ac.cr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anthony.gamboa@catie.ac.cr<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Written by:<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n<p>Karla Madrigal Pereira<br>Communicator<br>Communications and Marketing Office<br>CATIE<br><a href=\"mailto:karla.madrigal@catie.ac.cr\">karla.madrigal@catie.ac.cr<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div><p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AGROMIRA recibi\u00f3 el reconocimiento por parte de la Oficina Nacional Forestal (ONF) al participar en su programa SIEMBRAT\u00d3N 2024-2025, tras reportar la siembra de 550 \u00e1rboles en la zona de Turrialba y Jim\u00e9nez, durante mayo y junio.
