Direct drivers of deforestation in Amazon countries Cattle ranching Cattle ranching is the leading cause of deforestation in the Amazon rainforest. In Brazil, this has been the case since at least the 1970s: government figures attributed 38 percent of deforestation from 1966-1975 to large-scale cattle ranching.
Work the Land Responsibly. The biggest cause of deforestation worldwide is agriculture. In Brazil, up to 30 percent of existing pasture land for cattle is degraded, so farmers clear forests for new land to graze cows. The time and work spent destroying valuable forests could be better spent rehabilitating the land. Plants that create nutrient-rich soil can be planted.
