Recovery of the Agro-forestry area.
Projects approved and granted by PRODER 2030 and framed in the planning and recovery of settlements, namely through the following specific measures:
– Installation of an orchard of medronheiros, natural species of the Algarve region. This species has a promising future as it contributes to soil and water conservation, minimizing land erosion. The medronheiro is also a species resilient to fire and the fruit has a high economic value in the region. The intervention area was 17,197 hectares inserted in the National Ecological Reserve and the forest resettlement had a 5×5 compass, i.e., 400 plants per hectare.
- Planting of a pine forest, a species common in Portugal. The planted species was the meek pine and the same prevents the erosion of the land, obtaining non-woody material, such as pine cone and pine nuts with high economic value in the region. The intervention area was 17,197 hectares inserted in the National Ecological Reserve and the forest resettlement had a 6×3 compass, that is, 555 plants per hectare.
