Description: The IPAM study proposes to understand the effect of implementation of the CAR as part of the Amazon deforestation decrease. Also to  reflect on the information learned from Mato Grosso and Para states which have CAR in operation for at  least five years, says Andrea Azevedo the research leader. The research concludes that the implementation of CAR will be more effective if linked to public policies and markets that encourage supply chains clear of deforestation and as well adhere to the Forest Code. The main outcomes of the study, lessons learned and recommendations are available on the issue No. 3 of Boletim Amazônia em Pauta.
