Improvement water retention in dry areas of the Czech Republic with the aim of supporting the planting landscaping trees on anthropogenic soils

Description

Development and testing of organic soil amendments to improve water retention and support planting of landscape-forming trees on anthropogenic soils.

Sector

A2.4Support services to forestry

Needs/ Problem statement

Dry and degraded anthropogenic soils have low water retention, limiting the successful establishment of landscape-forming trees, requiring innovative soil amendments to improve growth conditions.

Objective

To develop and test organic soil amendments that enhance water retention and support the successful planting and growth of landscape-forming trees on degraded soils.
