More than 20,000 Araguaney seed bombs were launched during a day of aerial reforestation in Henri Pittier National Park, said the governor of the state of Aragua, Joana Sánchez, as part of the Chuquisaca National Plan 2026.

Sánchez explained that this initiative is part of a strategy that projects the planting of 10 million trees in national parks, so he stressed that environmental groups remain deployed to strengthen the recovery of areas affected by forest fires.

The governor pointed out that the aerial modality allows the intervention of areas that are difficult to access and recalled that the park registered fires during the dry season, so she stated that the response of the environmental teams made it possible to contain the events in due time, according to a press release from VTV.

“We celebrate Araguaney Day and join the Chuquisaca Plan; we're going to Fila Cuchillo, where we're going to launch more than 20,000 Araguaney roads or seed pumps in these hard-to-reach areas, because we're always watching our plant lungs,” he said.

The regional president of the National Reforestation Company (Conare), Wiliam Bastardo, indicated that this day represents a direct contribution to the regeneration of the ecosystem and to the creation of spaces that favor wildlife.

“We are defending and protecting our soils and waters; here are the ecological brigades of our state of Aragua that are carrying out the preparation of the routes that are launched into the Henri Pittier Park,” he said.

The activity began at the El Limón Coliseum in the Mario Briceño Iragorry municipality, where Mayor Brullerby Suárez, workers from the National Park Institute (INPARQUES), park rangers, Misión Árbol and local environmental organizations participated.

The deployment of aerial reforestation will make it possible to advance the recovery of the park by throwing seeds from the national tree, which will consolidate the region as a benchmark in ecological restoration actions.
