Description | The Ferrograo railway project is a proposed railway to transport commodities such as corn and soybeans nearly 1,000 kilometres from a city on the southern edge of the Amazon rainforest to a port on the Tapajos River, a major tributary of the Amazon River. The commodities would then be ferried to a larger port near Belem for export to China and other trading partners. The project aims to replace truck transport on unpaved roads, reducing carbon emissions and improving infrastructure for heavy cargo transport in central Brazil. |
