By developing species detection algorithms for locating the seed and nut trees that can be wild harvested, Bioverse makes it possible to plan for and scale the bioeconomy.\n\nBioverse takes the guess work out of where a harvester should go and where storage and processing facilities should be built. This makes efforts to stimulate a forest-based bioeconomy much more likely to succeed. When communities have the ability to forecast annual yields of sustainable products from their territories, they can more readily resist the destructive economic pressures from logging, mining and agriculture.\n\nBioverse is expanding from a base in Brazil to scope out projects and supply chain investments for several other countries around the Amazon. Experience proves that the team can find between 5 and 15 times more of each target species than communities were harvesting from, which means that community livelihoods can be boosted by orders of magnitude--all while bringing higher tech, higher skilled job opportunities to vulnerable areas. \nBioverse has been recognized by UNICEF, UNDP, the XPrize Foundation (semi-finalists in the Rainforest Xprize) and major companies that use wild harvested forest products. \n\nBioverse welcomes your help to reach more communities faster and with a wider array of species detection services. \n\nThanks for your contributions!", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}}
