The genetic improvement program at Bosques Amazónicos BAM contributes to the recovery and conservation of highly threatened native species. This is the case of the shihuahuaco (Dipteryx micrantha), one of the most attractive species in the international market due to its hardness and quality of its wood as well as its excellent capacity to resist...

The team from Bosques Amazónicos BAM traveled to Costa Rica to receive training in the most advanced processes for genetic improvement as part of the cooperation agreement with the Instituto Técnico de Costa Rica (TEC). Dr. Olman Murillo, representative of TEC, recently visited the BAM’s operating area in Ucayali to study the plantation and train...

To strengthen the value of the forest, BAM, in cooperation with the Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica (TEC)─ one of the world’s leading institutions in cloning of forest species─ is rolling out a cutting-edge program to improve the forest genetics of our native species. This program seeks to clone the highest quality specimens from our...
