The 5th Expoforest will take place within the Brazilian Forestry Week, which in addition to the main dynamic forestry fair in the world, will have two other already traditional technical events: Harvest Seminar and Brazilian Forestry Meeting. They are scheduled for August 7th and 8th, 2023, in Ribeirão Preto/SP.

With a history of over 40 years, the 19th edition of the Harvest Seminar will once again bring together professionals from Brazil and abroad for an immersion in the subject. The event that gave rise to the programming of the Brazilian Forestry Week, is now considered the most traditional in the country in the segment. In 2018, the seminar brought together around 500 professionals at the Ribeirão Shopping Events Center. The lectures were divided into four main thematic blocks: Process Management, Logistics, New Technologies and the Wood Production Chain.

Simultaneously, the 5th Brazilian Forestry Meeting will take place. Organized by Malinovski and Embrapa Florestas, it is the main stage for discussions on forestry in Brazil. The 2018 edition had 400 professionals, representatives of the main forest-based companies and forestry research institutions in the country and abroad. The lectures were also divided into four thematic blocks: Mechanization and Automation in Forestry; Risks and Forest Productivity; New Opportunities and Markets; and Madeira Production Chain.

Investments do not stop in the planted forests and wood-derived products sector. According to a report in the Valor Econômico newspaper, the pulp and paper segment has a forecast of over R$ 63 billion in investments. Suzano, Klabin, CMPC and Arauco have the biggest projects. The biggest one is Suzano’s Cerrado, which is expected to bring in R$ 19.3 billion.

Another thermometer that indicates the heating of the industry is in the generation of jobs. LD Celulose, a partnership between the Brazilian company Dexco and the Austrian company Lenzing, generates more than a thousand direct jobs in the Triangulo Mineiro region. In full expansion, its objective is to build one of the largest dissolving cellulose industries in the world. In the second half of September, LD Celulose announced new vacancies in several areas, ranging from administrative functions to operations in the factory and in the forest.

Also in September, Veracel, located in the south of Bahia, opened enrollments for the Young Apprentice Program. Vacancies were offered to young people between the ages of 18 and 21, with the aim of developing the region’s workforce and identifying talent for future opportunities in the company.
