revegetation
Revegetation is the process of planting native vegetation in areas where it has been removed or degraded. This practice helps restore ecosystems, improve soil health, and enhance biodiversity. It often involves using seeds, seedlings, or cuttings from local plants to ensure that the new growth is well-suited to the environment.
Revegetation is commonly used in areas affected by deforestation, mining, or wildfires. By reintroducing native plants, it can help stabilize soil, reduce erosion, and provide habitat for wildlife. Successful revegetation efforts contribute to the overall health of the ecosystem and can improve the quality of air and water in the area.
