Oak disease prevention and regeneration of pastures
Soil Regeneration
- Improvement in soil structure
- Increase of microbial life
- Increase of worms and other subterranean fauna
- Increase of humus formation
- Exponential increase in productivity
- Increased depth of fertile soils
- De-compactation and increase in water permeability
- Improved resistance to drought
- Reduction of fire risk
Improvement of oaks health and disease prevention
- Forecast of areas mostly affected by disease:
- Risk maps
- Investment and action priorities
- Identification and analysis of driving factors
- Reduction of disease causing factors in the medium and long term
- Reduction in ecological tension of trees
- Maximization of acorn germination and tree rejuvenation
- Pruning management
- Maximization of mycorrhizal relationships and beneficial symbiosis
- Increase in subterranean and horizontal available moisture levels
- Plantation designed for improved and faster growth
Oakwoods in good shape mean
- Shade during summer months (delayed withering)
- Better protection against winter freeze (improved grass growth)
- Minimization of rain erosion
- Minimization of wind effect
- Production of horizontal precipitation
- Chemical control of undergrowth
- Improvement of soil characteristics (PH balance)
- Reduction of it´s erosion
- Structure improvement
- Improvement of the soil’s nutrient content (pumping of minerals form the subsoil)
- Improvement of biological activity
- Livestock protection
- Preservation of fauna
- Acorn, foliage and firewood
- Beauty
Improvement of pasture with intensive use of cattle
Long-term improvement of the soil and the increase of cattle productivity
Increase In Biodiversity
- Improvement of the ecosystem’s general health
- Improvement of symbiotic exchange
- Increase in resilience in stressful situations (plague, drought, fire)
Special pond design aimed at a healthy ecosystem
- Gravity fed irrigation
- Increase in subterranean moisture
- Increase in horizontal moisture
- Improvement in vegetal and animal diversity, preventing potential plagues by promoting beneficial fauna
Others
- Integral rearrangement of environmental resources
- Technical hunting plans
- Integration of property in protected spaces
- Prospecting potential marketers and clients of products
- Registration process as an organic farm, if necessary
- Notification of grants in force
