The reading in full
This 20-hectare parcel near Nunchía, Casanare, RAP Llanos is workable land whose plan must come before the capital. It scores 49 out of 100 on the Dear Wise Earth Land Score.
The risks that most shape a decision here: This area is highly exposed to projected climate change by 2050. Large shifts in temperature and rainfall can change what the land can support, so any plan should be built around the projected conditions, not current ones. A meaningful share of this land's tree cover has been cleared since 2000. Long-term loss points to historical or ongoing clearing pressure and a lower conservation baseline; confirm the legal status and whether clearing is still active. This ground has a recorded seismic history. Repeated strong earthquakes within reach shape how anything here should be built — seismic design codes, slope stability under shaking, and insurance all follow from it.
Where the upside lies: A watercourse lies close to the parcel. Nearby surface water improves access to irrigation and supply and adds habitat value, though rights and distance still affect how usable it is.
The wider readings: Rainfall is moderate. Water is adequate for many uses, but storage through the dry season improves reliability. This parcel is a position in a watershed, not an island. What arrives here is decided upstream, and what happens here is felt downstream — land use on this parcel is water stewardship for everyone below it. Read the upstream land uses before trusting the water, and count the downstream neighbours before changing it. The land is gently rolling. Gentle terrain is generally workable with only minor grading for buildings or roads. The largest buildable bench is 10.58 ha. This is the piece that decides what fits: a single footprint, its access, and its services all have to land on contiguous ground. Everything beyond it is a second site, not an extension of the first. Little wildlife has been formally recorded here. A low record count usually reflects limited survey effort rather than low biodiversity, so a ground survey is needed before drawing conclusions. No satellite soil data is available for this parcel. Soil quality cannot be assessed remotely here, so a ground survey is needed before any agricultural or restoration decision. Road and town access are close. Good access lowers development and logistics costs but can raise encroachment pressure and land prices. The human fabric around this land is measured, not assumed. Labour, emergencies, schooling, and electricity all run on these distances — they decide what daily life and operations here actually cost. Jurisdiction is part of the parcel. Permits, zoning, water, and roads run through these offices — knowing who governs the land is the first step of every plan that touches it.
What the land is telling us: The longer record suggests a land that has been drawn down rather than held: about 34% of its tree cover has been cleared since 2000, most recently in 2007. The cover is measurably coming back now — a land recovering, which is a workable base, but the history is the reason the foundational work comes first. Of the land's core processes, the water cycle reads as adequate to abundant, so the question is less supply than how well the land captures and holds what falls and community dynamics are barely recorded here — an absence of data, not necessarily of life. What orbit cannot see is what happens below the surface — soil biology, structure, and the carbon held in the ground — so treat those as the first things to confirm underfoot. Taken together, this is workable land whose plan must come before the capital. Its clearest strength to build from is that a watercourse lies close to the parcel.

How this land works
About 1,895 mm of rain falls here in a year. 39% of the parcel is under tree cover, and the ground slopes 5.4° on average, enough to move water without tearing soil where roots hold it. 24 mapped watercourses cross the land (Río Tocaria), and what leaves it travels 3 km downstream before the mapped path ends. The nearest road is 0.6 km off, and the nearest settlement is 2.6 km away, which is the pressure the edge lives with. By 2050 the models expect +1 °C and -29% rain, so every flow above runs a little differently than it does today.
Regenerating — cut after 2000, the cover is returning.
Change the trend; rebuild the base. Largely cleared (34% lost since 2000), this is frontier ground — the work is to secure it and rebuild cover from the base. To help: stop the clearing at the streams first: every metre of canopy kept along water holds the loop together.
The score is the footnote. What matters is the pattern above it: what arrives, what the ground does with it, what leaves, and which way that is moving.
