The aim is to explore the effectiveness of assisted natural regeneration in establishing hedges using existing plant species.
Identified areas where hedges can regrow naturally.
Encouraged growth of native plant species without direct planting.
Monitored growth over a specified period to assess regrowth success.
Successful regrowth of hedges observed in multiple test sites.
Increased biodiversity noted as more local species thrived.
Reduced costs compared to traditional planting methods.
Abstract
Assisted natural regeneration (ANR) of hedges is an agroecological practice aimed at creating hedges without planting, by encouraging the natural regrowth of locally present species
