Reforest'Action and the Groupement Forestier Avenir Forêt invite you to participate in the enrichment of this declining pine and laricio plot.
The project at a glance
- Number of trees to be planted: about 4000
- Planting area: 6 hectares
- Species planted: Douglas fir (70%), oak (20%), maple (10%)
- Type of project: enrichment of a dying stand
Context
This plot is an old pine plantation. Poorly adapted trees are declining, the soil and their maintenance have not met their requirements.
The owner therefore wishes to revitalize the afforestation without disturbing the ecosystem more than necessary. The most vigorous and healthy trees will be left on site, while the enrichment of three species, including two hardwoods, sessile oak and maple, will diversify the environment and contribute to greater resilience of the stand to increasing natural hazards. In addition, this diversity of species will contribute to a richer biodiversity.
