These biomes collectively suffered a loss of 352,006 hectares of native vegetation in 2020 - a growth of 184% compared to the previous year. These numbers are from the Annual Deforestation Report in Brazil - 2020, produced from data from MapBiomas Alert, and were presented in a webinar on Friday, July 16th. The event featured a complete presentation of the study and analyses with the participation of monitoring and enforcement agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The data indicates 10,687 deforestation alerts detected in 2020 - representing a 243% growth compared to 2019. According to Washington Rocha, the coordinator of the Caatinga Team at MapBiomas Alert, the substantial growth in 2020 occurred because the Deforestation Alert System (SAD) Caatinga started to produce alerts, expanding the detection of deforested areas. \"Agriculture, mainly in the western border of the region, on the agricultural frontier of western Bahia and part of MATOPIBA (Maranh\u00e3o, Piau\u00ed, and Bahia), was the main driver of deforestation acceleration,\" comments Rocha. Among the states, Maranh\u00e3o was the one that deforested the most in the Northeast: 167,366 hectares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Northeast, 1,104 municipalities recorded deforestation out of a total of 1,793, meaning 61.57% of the municipalities experienced native vegetation loss in 2020. Balsas, in Maranh\u00e3o, leads the ranking of municipalities that deforested the most in the region, with 28,751 hectares devastated, representing a 327% increase compared to 2019. Two cities in Bahia complete the podium: Formosa do Rio Preto, with 13,061 hectares (a growth of 66%), and S\u00e3o Desid\u00e9rio (BA), with 11,976 hectares deforested - but it had the highest growth, with 487%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To enhance monitoring and combat illegal deforestation, MapBiomas signed a technical cooperation agreement with the Northeast Consortium on May 31. Through this partnership, project data will be used to generate knowledge about the territory and biomes of the region and promote preservation strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Highlights about the Northeast region in the Annual Deforestation Report in Brazil - 2020:<\/strong><br>&#8211;&nbsp;<strong>10,687 alerts detected<\/strong>Validated and refined (a 243% increase compared to 2019);<br>&#8211;&nbsp;<strong>352,006 hectares of deforestation<\/strong>&nbsp;(an increase of 184% compared to 2019);<br>\u2013 In<strong>&nbsp;Northeast<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>1,104 municipalities recorded deforestation<\/strong>, out of a total of 1,793, meaning 61.57% of the cities;<br>\u2013 Among the states,&nbsp;<strong>Maranh\u00e3o was the one that deforested the most<\/strong>&nbsp;in the Northeast: 167,366 hectares.
