A Revegetation Manual.

Since European settlement widespread and indiscriminate clearing of land and drainage of wetlands has meant erosion, soil salinity, creek and river sedimentation, dieback...and wvithal land degradation and a loss of productivity.

This handbook is an answer to the now widely recognised need for trees to be replaced on a broad scale.

GROWING TREES FOR FARMS, PARKS AND ROADSIDES aims to promote tree planting by providing practical advice on a wide range of techniques. Trees have been traditionally established by planting seedlings, but direct seeding and natural regeneration can be
cost-effective alternatives. All three methods are discussed and compared, with case studies to illustrate the most appropriate method for particular situations.

The book describes step by step all tages of a revegetation project:

  • planning (including a calendar of activities)
  • selecting species
  • collecting' seed
  • preparing the site
  • after care
