One of the barriers to ensure quality and, consequently, add value to the Brazil nut, is the lack of suitable sites for the storage of the product in the forest. Currently, the product is exposed to nature effects for long periods, subject to contamination by fungi, which can damage the whole production and reduce significantly the extrativists families’ income.
