•  Illegal logging concession ~ 25 years ago

•  Burned for agricultural use

•  Invaded by exotic grass ‘alang-alang’ (Imperata cylindrica)

•  Fire in ‘alang-alang’ burns every dry season

…preventing natural forest regeneration

Site History

Page 11: CHIANG MAI COURSE - Reforestation around the region with native tree / Participantes del programa de capacitación

Project Goals

●  Increase forest habitat

●  Provide alternative income & reduce illegal logging

●  Encourage community participation in conservation activities

●  Increase & share knowledge about tropical rain forest restoration

●  Assess effectiveness of different methods

-seedling sources -site preparation -fertilization

methods

Page 12: CHIANG MAI COURSE - Reforestation around the region with native tree / Participantes del programa de capacitación

• Green = Existing Riparian Forest

• Blue = 2009 Planted Site 4 ha of experimental plots 0.5 ha additional plantings

• Yellow = 2010 Planting Site • 4 ha best method from 2009 • 2 ha additional experiment

• Red Line = Trail into Park

• Black Line = Road/Park border

Site Details

Page 13: CHIANG MAI COURSE - Reforestation around the region with native tree / Participantes del programa de capacitación

•  Plot Layout: 100 plots, 20 m x 20 m

• Site Preparation roundup (Red) pressing (Green) control (no color)

•  Weeding weeding (square)

•  Cardboard Mulch cardboard mat (circle)

•  Additional treatments: pioneer additions shade plantings fertilizer

2009 Experiment: Treatment Combinations

Page 14: CHIANG MAI COURSE - Reforestation around the region with native tree / Participantes del programa de capacitación

Successes: • DATA: 88% survival after 1 year

- some species over 1.5 m

•  Persons employed - directly in the field = 95 people - through providing material = 800

•  National Park initiated neighboring restoration project in 2010

•  Educational Presentation Requests

Page 15: CHIANG MAI COURSE - Reforestation around the region with native tree / Participantes del programa de capacitación

Constraints:

•  High cost of experimental design

•  Continued illegal logging

•  Risk of fire

•  Frequency of seed year (e.g. Dipterocarps: 2-10 years) limiting the availability of planting materials. •  Limited information on native trees (e.g. site requirements; growth performance; dendrology/tree identification; phenology and seed technology) •  Need for delineation of production and protection forest including appropriate land-use and management plans. •  Continued use and promotion of exotic tree species for restoration. • Overlapping claims and tenure in some forestlands. • Lack of alternative livelihood of the upland communities, contributing to continued forest destruction.
