Florida, Sep 29.- The Florida Forestry Unit made better progress this year in its reforestation plan for the current stage, based on greater responsibility of the managers and workers of that group regarding the commitments agreed in the general program of forest rehabilitation of the municipality.
According to the information offered by the Florida State Forest Service, the aforementioned entity exceeded the number of tree planting planned in its schedule this year, with the introduction and/or renewal of 10.3 hectares of eucalyptus for round wood in the Trabuco and Vía Blanca reserves.
Local foresters are also striving to complete some 26 hectares of natural regeneration management in the coastal area of the territory before the end of October, a task whose largest volume must be realized in the recovery of the mangroves.
The aforementioned mission associated with the Cuban State’s plan to confront climate change, also known as Task Life, includes the elimination of invasive plants such as Leucaena, and the execution of canals for aquifer exchange in the ecosystems of the Floridian coast.
The positive performance of the Florida Forestry-Based Business Unit in contributing to the municipality’s Reforestation Plan at this stage stands out, above all, for the desire to put an end to a streak of non-compliance with that commitment accumulated for more than a decade. before the results of last year 2022.
