“…Until 1990, Pará accounted for 95% of Brazilian extractive production(CONAB, 2019). However, in 2013, this share dropped to 54.9%(Blair e Matos et al, 2017). This switch happened due to development of açaí activity in other Brazilian states, such as Amazonas and Maranhão, since açaí has become a promising business opportunity and given the local and global demand(CONAB, 2019).…”

“…The natural dispersion of E. oleracea¸ known as açaí-do-Pará, includes the states of Amapá, Goiás, Pará, Tocantins and Maranhão; and E. precatoria, known as açaí-solteiro, açaí-damata or açaí-do-Amazonas, covering the states of Acre, Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia and Roraima (VIANNA, 2021). The species have some distinct characteristics, including better nutritional quality of the pulp (KANG et al, 2012;MATOS et al, 2017) and higher pulp yield of E. precatoria fruits compared to E. oleracea (CARTAXO et al, 2020); the tillering in E. oleracea and a single stem in E. precatoria (VIANNA, 2021) besides the differences in the seasonality of fruit production (GAMA, 2004;MELO et al, 2021).…”
