Restoring our amazon one CACao tree at a time 

SunMint supports small-scale Amazonian farmers in restoring and expanding the rainforest through cabruca agroforestry, which involves planting diverse tree species, including cacao. We accelerate their reforestation efforts by offering essential resources: upfront funding for cacao tree acquisition and expert guidance on sustainable management to maximize fruit yields. Additionally, our innovative model incorporates carbon credits, which are issued to offset our initial investment, creating a sustainable cycle of investment in reforestation. By empowering these farmers, we promote biodiversity, enhance ecosystem services, and contribute to climate change mitigation, while securing a sustainable supply of high-quality cacao for generations to come.

problem statement

The Amazon rainforest faces dual challenges: degradation from cattle ranching and soybean farming, and the marginalization of indigenous communities. Climate change has driven up cacao prices, making cabruca-based cacao farming an attractive economic alternative for local farmers, promoting land restoration.

 

However, two significant barriers hinder the transition to cacao farming: substantial upfront costs and a 1.5-year yield gap before cacao trees bear fruit. Furthermore, indigenous communities often lack access to resources and economic opportunities, exacerbating their marginalization. Cacao farming offers a potential solution, enabling their reintegration into the economy while restoring the rainforest.

our solution

Our comprehensive support program provides a tailored solution for Amazon farmers transitioning to sustainable cacao farming. By addressing the key challenges of upfront costs, educational needs, and financial gaps, we enable farmers to overcome the initial barriers to sustainable farming. Through our program, farmers receive upfront financing for high-quality trees and expert education. Additionally, we provide administrative support for carbon credit issuance and facilitate sales of carbon credits to USA companies, generating revenue that covers program costs and supports the long-term sustainability of the initiative. By providing this holistic support, we empower farmers to restore the rainforest and achieve economic integration, ultimately benefiting both the environment and indigenous communities.
