This study arose with the purpose of evaluating the environmental impact generated by the company Proyecto Forestal Canapro sectional Puerto Carreño, Vichada; having as a peculiarity that it exercises different activities such as beekeeping, livestock, forestry and fruit forestry and finally conservation, which makes it of vital importance to determine the impacts that can be derived and thus take the pertinent actions and this is achieved through the Evaluation of Environmental Impact (EIA) which is a tool that aims to identify, predict, interpret-assess, prevent or correct and communicate, the effect of a project on the environment, having a relationship with the biotic, abiotic and socioeconomic components ( Cruz, Gallego and González, 2009); For this reason, the activities that the company comprises where the practices carried out in the field are taken into account such as: poorly planned interventions, planting work, authorization and preparation of land as well as the impacts derived from the preparation of raw materials, landscape pollution, air, soil, water, energy requirements, waste disposal, noise level and odor entail an environmental execution of the impact assessment, which was carried out using the Simplified Conesa method. In this work, an evaluation as objective as possible was made of the environmental impact produced by the multiple activities carried out in the Canapro Forest Project; having negative positive results to a lesser extent due to the good practices that they carry out and that make their activities positive, this EIA allows verifying such actions to take specific measures through mitigation, prevention or correction programs that were established for the impacts identified, since the intention of the company is legal compliance as well as recognition of being a leading local company in favor of the environment.
