An aerial view shows a deforested area, near Las Lomitas, in Formosa, Argentina April 18, 2023. The Gran Chaco is facing growing pressure as large-scale farms producing soy and cattle expand to meet global food demand. Land clearances to farm soy and beef have led to 7 million hectares of native forest being torn down in Argentina between 1998 and 2021, almost all in the Gran Chaco, government data shows. That's an area almost 90 times the size of New York City. REUTERS/Agustin Marcarian SEARCH "CHACO" FOR THIS STORY. SEARCH "WIDER IMAGE" FOR ALL STORIES.
