Project Description

This land that is in the middle of the forest was used for many years for crops such as corn and oats. Due to the hard work required for annual crops, the very low prices with which the owners could sell corn and/or oats and the very high prices of the necessary inputs for agriculture, the owners of the land decided to return his forest use. The owner of this land is an older adult around 70 years old. She has expressed her intention to leave a forest in her small piece of land for future years and her heir agrees. In 2021, infiltration ditches were made at level with a plow disk to stop the erosion that the land was experiencing and also to stop the flow of water over it. The trees were planted in the edge of the ditch For them to take advantage of the water stored in the ditches after the rains . The trees have adapted well, in 2022 the trees that were dead were replaced and in 2022 and 2023 four irrigations were applied during the dry season.
