The results of the study demonstrate that the support of the biodiversity products, aligned with the conservation of the amazon forest, benefit the social and economic development of the amazon states and represent a unique opportunity for a sustainable development model for the Amazon Forest that reconciles environmental conservation and income generation for local populations. The projections done by the study indicate that potential economic gains in the next two decadeswith adequate public policies generated by the production of açaí, cocoa-almond, chestnut, copaíba, cumaru, andiroba, honey, buriti, cupuaçu and palm heart, could reach more than US$30 billion by 2040, and increase by more than 30 times its current value.
