Corpoguajira inició los trabajos que permitirán el establecimiento de un vivero permanente en el municipio de Urumita, el cual tendrá una capacidad inicial de 20.000 plántulas (16.000 forestales y 4.000 fruit trees). This initiative contributes to the conservation and protection of natural resources and to the conservation of the soil in this area of ​​the peninsula..

The plants from the nursery will be used in reforestation processes in deforested watersheds, restoration of degraded areas, creation of biological corridors and to help purify the air and improve the landscape.

This sector of La Guajira urgently requires the development of plant production projects, since its environmental context presents a critical picture in which indiscriminate forest exploitation is evident., occurrence of forest fires, expansion of growing areas, the extension of the agricultural frontier over wetlands, the diversion of the channels of surrounding rivers, Inter alia.

With this project, Corpoguajira provides effective solutions that contribute to the increase in forest cover, protection of soils to reduce the erosive effect and regulate currents in the hydrographic basins of the region.
