Soils cultivation on afforestation sites
Dr Jens Haufe, Forest Research, on behalf of Forestry and Climate Change Working Group
Foresters know there is a desperate need for a huge increase in afforestation to combat climate change through carbon sequestration. This webinar is aimed at bolstering the forest industry's technical expertise in one of the most important first steps to achieving this – management of soils.
This excellent talk was hosted by the RFS on behalf of the FCCWG on 20 January 2021 and repeated due to high demand on 03 February. You can watch a recording of one of the sessions on the RFS YouTube channel by clicking HERE
