@Elmkast Found a non-paywalled version of the science paper that is the source for that 70% claim

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/262876332_Slowing_Amazon_Deforestation_Through_Public_Policy_and_Interventions_in_Beef_and_Soy_Supply_Chains

expansion of protected areas appear to have contributed to this decline, as did a decline
in the demand for new deforestation"

haven't finished it yet but what I've read is very interesting.
