Résumé du projet
The aim of the project is to replant these areas using natural regeneration, particularly of arbutus and cork oak, in order to revive traditional cork and arbutus production. The approach is based on the diversification of tree species, contributing to greater forest resilience in the face of climatic hazards and invasive species. Restored stands will be able to deliver all their environmental, economic and landscape benefits. In this case, the trees will reduce soil erosion, promote the development of biodiversity and enhance the landscape.
