Project Description
Last year we started working with this ejido thanks to a forestry engineer who is in charge of the forest management plan for different ejidos of Ocampo and Angangueo, municipalities of Michoacán. The reforestation was carried out on idle land in the ejido that had not been worked on for many years. The soil of the land has little organic matter and high compaction rates. 5,111 trees were planted on 3.44 hectares with the goal of reaching 900 trees per hectare. Infiltration ditches were made to plant most of the trees and other trees were planted on the periphery. During the dry season of 2023 we support irrigation and in 2024 we seek to reforest again, but with different species such as oaks and cedars.
