SUMMARY:

Between April 2019 and September 2020, Fundació Emys participates in a demonstration project in collaboration with CREAF, which is very interesting. At 3 points on the Can Moragues estate we have reforested and planted dry land of various formats (holm oaks, ashes and olive trees) to demonstrate the excellent capabilities of the cocoon methodology to increase the survival of seedlings that do not have support irrigation.
