Sintra in Syntropy:
How to transform a piece of soil into a living, productive and resilient organism?
It is estimated that the Mediterranean Forest has lost a considerable part of its original cover due to deforestation and soil degradation. Here, the implementation of Syntropic Agroforestry Systems emerges as an alternative solution to other practices that degrade the soil, but also as a promising solution for the regeneration of these biomes, promoting the restoration of native vegetation and the recovery of biodiversity.
Sítio Semente is a living example of how agroforestry can recover degraded soils and promote sustainable food production .
Over the last 15 years, Professor Juã Pereira has implemented Agroforestry Systems that integrate different species of plants, from vegetables to native and exotic trees, without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
How can you participate in ecological regeneration and promote sustainability in your home and community? ↓
Course training in Syntropic Agroforestry Systems
with a focus on regeneration
of Native Mediterranean Plants
Sintra, Portugal
If you already have a farm or want to start an agroforestry plantation, understanding the first steps is essential.
✔ The land does not prepare itself, the forest does not form by chance.
✔ The path to a productive agroforestry begins long before sowing: it arises from a deep understanding of the soil, ecological succession and intelligent management of species.
It is in this context that we invite you to the Advanced Training in Syntropic Agroforestry Systems.
In this training, you will learn everything from soil structuring to effective planting, including essential techniques to ensure that your system is not only productive, but also regenerative.
✔ How to plan an agroecosystem that respects the rhythms of nature;
✔ Which species to choose to enhance ecological succession and ensure soil vitality;
✔ How to manage biomass to strengthen plants and prevent land depletion.

Juã Pereira
Brazilian, Biologist and Farmer, for more than 15 years Juã and the farmer and scientist Ernst Götsch, have together developed an Agroforestry Production model where lines of Trees are interspersed with consortiums of Vegetables.
At the head of Sítio Semente, located in the Federal District, he transformed degraded areas into productive and biodiverse ecosystems, applying the principles of Syntropic Agriculture.
His work demonstrates that it is possible to reconcile man with nature, promoting sustainability and abundance.
With Sítio Semente well established in the agroforestry scenario and the demand for development in other regions , for the past year we have been promoting workshops and training in regions with potential for expansion.
