Deforestation and cattle expansion in the Paraguayan Chaco 1987–2012
Published 2018“…Cropland expansion, in contrast, only played a minor role as a proximate deforestation cause in the Paraguayan Chaco. Deforestation more than doubled between 2001 and 2012 (~29,000 km2) compared to 1987–2000 (~14,000 km2), due to leakage effects from the deforestation ban in the Paraguayan Atlantic Forests in 2004. …”

Leucaena feeding systems in Argentina. II. Current uses and future research priorities = Sistemas de alimentación con leucaena en Argentina: II. Situación actual y prioridades de i...
Published 2020“…The recent adoption is related to the incorporation of the ‘Australian technology package’, previously adapted for use by farmers in the neighboring region of the Paraguayan Chaco. In June 2018, we surveyed 8 properties with about 2,400 ha of leucaena in silvopastoral systems for beef cattle production in the Argentinean Chaco region, as well as 10 smallholder farms with about 10 ha of leucaena protein banks for dairy cattle in the northeast of Argentina. …”

The role of soybean production as an underlying driver of deforestation in the South American Chaco
Published 2018“…However, our models also suggested Argentine soybean cultivation may indirectly be linked to deforestation in the Bolivian and Paraguayan Chaco. We furthermore found substantial time-delayed effects in the relationship of soybean expansion in Argentina and Paraguay (i.e., soybean expansion in one year resulted in deforestation several years later) and deforestation in the Chaco, further suggesting that possible displacement effects within and between Chaco countries may at least partly drive forest loss. …”

Indirect Impact Assessment of the road segment San Juan Nepomuceno-Ruta 6 in Paraguay
Published 2016“…Indeed, if the road is built the model predicts an estimated forest loss of 15,603 hectares during the next 10 years in the direct area of influence of the road, a substantial loss in the context of deforestation restrictions in the Paraguayan regulatory framework. These findings clearly indicate the indirect impacts that road infrastructure projects (improvement, pavement and construction) could have on land use change (via habitat loss and increased greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions). …”
