03 September 2024 Roraima, Brasil Mahogany Roraima Forest Bots Mahogany Roraima's proposed forestation project involves planting 50% of a 40,000 ha area with African mahogany (Khaya senegalensis), which will later be cut down for timber, and the other 50% with native trees , which will not be cut, with the aim of reducing disease through species variety. A related project involves the large-scale restoration of native trees in the state of Roraima, again with the aim of harvesting half of the trees and leaving the others intact.

The Real Carbon Capture Machine (RCCM) currently in development aims towards a self-driving system with GPS guidance, automated processes of planting, watering, fertilising, and monitoring , AI and 3D-imaging for forest inventory and analysis and recording of all actions in a cloud-based database accessible to partners and investors. The current prototype forest planting machine, is tractor-operated and has the capacity to plant approximately 3,600 seedlings per hour.
