Description

Hose pipe with Make arrangements for shower, water pump. water supply to the forest.

Fencing

To protect the forest from any cattle or human disturbance. 100% of afforestation should be protected.

3

Maintenance Staff

Permanent on-site manpower

Ensure forest has a person(s) in-charge of watering, de-weeding and protection. Watering and de-weeding has to be done for the first three years. Number of people maintaining the forest depends on area afforested

Description Make arrangements for extra soil if required. This is a very rare situation that arises if the soil has too many rock boulders, consists of construction waste or is completely dead with no organic content or minerals Organize biomass on-site as advised and finalized by Afforestt - The client needs to find suppliers of the biomass (manure, perforator and retainer) required and get it transported to the site in easy to handle packaging. Types of biomass mentioned in Cost estimation sheet

Organize saplings on-site as advised and finalized by Afforestt - Finding suppliers and transporting the saplings to the site. Afforestt team will visit the sapling supplier if required

Assigning Percentages to available species. Major Species Choose 5 different species to be the major forest species, th Assign 8 to 10 percent to each of them. This will constitute Supporting Species
