schema:value "The Forest Code (Federal Law 12,651/2012) designates areas like Permanent Preservation Areas (APPs) and Legal Reserves to protect essential ecosystem services such as water, soil, and biodiversity. However, significant gaps exist in enforcement, with 16.3 million hectares of Legal Reserves and 3 million hectares of APPs lacking native vegetation. Approximately 80% of the total area of rural properties in Brazil is registered in the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR). This registry includes information on native vegetation areas designated by environmental legislation as mandatory protection zones due to their role in providing essential ecosystem services, such as water and soil conservation. Additionally, 98.6% of Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) entries remain unverified by state environmental agencies." ],

For example:
1. Documentation review
a) Spatial data and satellite imagery are reviewed to identify the location and condition of Permanent Preservation Areas (APPs), including signs of deforestation or degradation along watercourses and steep slopes;
b) Environmental registries, including the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR), are reviewed to confirm the declared extent and condition of APPs;
c) Approved restoration plans (Degraded Area Recovery Plan - PRAD) are available where native vegetation in APPs is degraded or absent, demonstrating measures to restore natural vegetation and ecological functions related to water ecosystem services.
2. Field verification
a) When spatial data and CAR analyses are inconclusive, field visits are conducted to ensure effective preservation or restoration of APPs;
b) APPs observed in the field show evidence of preservation measures consistent with legal requirements;
c) Restoration activities, where applicable, show progress toward recovery of natural vegetation and ecological functions;
d) Field conditions observed support the protection or recovery of water-related ecosystem services, such as erosion control, water quality, and aquatic ecosystem stability.""" ] ;
