Acre has a territory of 16,422,136 ha, of which 7,774,440 ha (47.3% of the state), is composed of Conservation Units, distributed in the categories of Integral Protection, Sustainable Use and Indigenous Lands (2,390,112 ha, 14.55%), created for protection and sustainable use of the Amazon biome.

In the State of Acre, among many non-timber products, rubber and nuts occupy a prominent position in the extractive chain. With 25% of the national production (2016), Acre is Brazil's second largest castanha producer, and has set the goal of increasing production by 100% respect to the year 2000. In 2015, production reached 14,038 tons, 85% of the proposed goal.

The azai productive chain has the potential to structure the growth of the local and regional economy on a sustainable basis. Its production is carried out in small, medium and large properties, combined with other crops or exclusively. It contributes substantially to the labor and to the food security of the families, besides generating income with the commercialization of its derivatives for regional, national and international markets.

Acre has developed an efficient pisciculture sector over the last years and has become a model in the Amazonia. With an approximate surface of 2,500 hectares dedicated to this activity, its production value has nearly doubled from 2013 to 2015.

With 1.56 million hectares and a cattle population of 2.92 millions heads , the current stocking rate of the state is 1.8 heads per hectare. Although Acre is using its grassland areas more efficiently than the rest of the Amazonian region, it faces the challenges of increasing production without clearing new areas.

The Program "I want to read", launched in Acre in 2016 with the support of the Federal Government, aims to eradicate illiteracy to a rate under 4% by 2018 in people over 15 years of age.

The Acre government seeks to reduce the number of people living in poverty conditions. Rural poverty in 2014 was 18.9% and urban poverty 18.7.

The government of Acre seeks to reduce mortality rate to a maximum of 21 deaths per 1,000 live births. This goal was achieved in 2012 and the current mortality rate is 17.6
