Seringueira (Hevea brasiliensis) é uma árvore nativa da Amazônia, conhecida por produzir o látex, uma seiva leitosa usada para fabricar borracha natural. O látex é extraído do caule por meio de um processo chamado sangria, e a borracha é utilizada em produtos como pneus, luvas e materiais cirúrgicos. A madeira da seringueira é leve e branca, e suas sementes são ricas em óleo, servindo como matéria-prima para resinas e tintas. 🎥: @criatorioformoso | Vida no Campo
