Forestry and agricultural production do not take place in isolation. Every intervention in the landscape generates effects that extend beyond property boundaries and directly impact surrounding communities. In districts with unpaved roads, inadequate water management can leave entire populations isolated for weeks, disrupting mobility, work, and daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the district of Mois\u00e9s Bertoni, Forestal Sylvis is part of a collective effort to address this challenge at a structural level. Since early 2024, agricultural and forestry producers, together with the local municipality, have formed a formal commission to manage excess rainfall across nearly 40,000 hectares. The initiative has been officially declared of district interest by the Municipal Council, providing institutional backing and public validation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project\u2019s main objective is to channel water in an orderly manner through productive lands and direct it safely toward the R\u00edo Tebicuarym\u00ed, preventing overflows that affect nearby communities and damage rural roads. To achieve this, three main drainage channels are being built, expanded, or deepened, conceived as an integrated network and dimensioned according to the watershed\u2019s actual drainage requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Red line: channel that starts in Guavira, passes through Loma Linda and GEPESA, and discharges into Lote\u2019i.
Blue line: channel that starts in Algarrobo, runs through Loma Linda, the Felber property, and reaches Ma. Auxiliadora.
Yellow line: channel that starts in Algarrobo, runs along the public road, crosses the Evandro property, and discharges into the stream.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This system is complemented by the construction of bridges and the installation of culverts, allowing water to pass beneath rural roads without compromising their integrity. The initiative represents a significant investment in financial resources, logistics, and technical planning, jointly assumed by the group of producers involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Community engagement has been a key component throughout the process. Regular meetings were held with producers and local residents to explain how the channels would be developed, where water would flow, and how roads and bridges would be integrated. This prior dialogue enabled consensus, ensured community approval, and strengthened a shared territorial vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Forestal Sylvis, we believe that productive development is inseparable from coexistence. Our work seeks harmony not only with the environment, but also with the people who live in and depend on the same territory. Responsible, planned, and collective water management is a cornerstone of a long-term production model where development and community care move forward together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
