Achievement Plans
Rehabilitation of vegetation outside of the fenced olive grove area to prevent soil erosion and potentially impact on the movement of fauna. Weed control will involve herbicide treatments to reduce the amount of weeds present.This will reduce the competition for available water and nutrients with the native seedlings, leading to a more successful revegetation outcome.
With the proposed revegetation in this area, it will provide an excellent opportunity to enhance vegetation corridors linking these remnant areas, thus strengthening the alternative routes for wildlife and attract bees.
Methods
We would prepare the soil and placement and start with the weed control during the next 6 months and then start the revegetation in 8 months in time for the rain season.
