No results found.The goal of this article is to quantify the area deforested up to 2017 and the evolution of deforestation over the last 20 years (1997-2017) in the state of Acre, with a closer look atthe categories oftheAcre River basin, alluvial forests buffer and legally protected riparianforests (APP) along the Acre River as well as the territorial categories of public areas and private or unincorporated areas. The Acre River Basin has great socioeconomic and environmentalrelevance for the state of Acre, concentrating 66.6% of the state's total population. It is connected by road with the Pacific, and contains 49 family farm settlement projects and has 36% of its area in protected areas. The results of the comparisons between the percentages of deforested areas and the evolution of deforestation in these categories shows that the APP and buffer of alluvial forests had the highest percentage of deforestedareas, with 48% and 45%, respectively. The evolution of deforestation in these areas nearthe Acre River also shows that it acted as a vector of deforestation, with private or unincorporated areas as the main drivers. Smallholder farmers in settlement projects had a deforestation pattern that increased with distance from the river, while the traditional populations of the Chico Mendes Extractive Reserve and the indigenous populations of the Acre River Headland Indigenous Land had a pattern of greater deforestation closest to the river.
