Conteúdo: | The Pantanal is one of the world's largest continuous wetlands, where flocks of wading birds and Neotropical mammals live together with a three-million Nelore Zebu cattle herd. More than 200 grasses and hundreds of forbs, as well as browsing species, live on a mosaic of rivers, floodplains, channels, ponds, flooded grasslands, cerrado savannah and some dry forests on ancient levees. This area has been used as rangeland for more than two centuries and serves as the main cattle breeding area of Central Brazil. Much research has been carried out on this region, but much more is necessary in order to generate, adapt and transfer knowledge and technologies for development of the Pantanal according to conservationist principles. The sustainable development of this region depends on such procedures.
