Extremo Norte do Tocantins Extractive Reserve, Nature reserve in Carrasco Bonito, Brazil.

This extractive reserve encompasses 9,280 hectares of land with native vegetation, located between Sampaio and Carrasco Bonito municipalities in Tocantins state.

The Brazilian federal government established the Extremo Norte do Tocantins Extractive Reserve in May 1992 to protect natural resources and traditional communities.

The local population maintains traditional practices of babassu palm fruit processing, with women leading the extraction activities while men focus on crop cultivation.

Visitors need authorization from ICMBio, the Brazilian environmental agency, to access the reserve and conduct research or observe local communities.

The reserve operates under a deliberative council that includes representatives from agencies and NGOs to manage land use and resource extraction regulations.
