What is Agroforestry?
Amazon forests are being lost

In Tomé-açu, approximately 7,000 ha of blighted land was restored. This is equivalent to 1,500 times the size of the Tokyo Dome, and is said to absorb 45,000 tons of CO2 per year. (Survey by FRUTAFRUTA)

The History of Tomé-açu


CAMTA - FRUTAFRUTA's Encounter with Agroforestry -

FRUTAFRUTA began when it encountered with this Agroforestry.

Charmed by the passion and diligence of the Japanese immigrants engaged in Agroforestry through trial and error with numerous crops amid difficult conditions, FRUTAFRUTA directly imports the fruit ingredients and other types of ingredients produced through Agroforestry from CAMTA (Cooperativa Agrícola Mista de Tomé-açu), which is the local agricultural cooperative, in order to support the development of their Agroforestry. The link to CAMTA is an essential bond for FRUTAFRUTA.
