Check one of our solutions for rehabilitation of degraded areas: placing bark from logs being debarked in our sawmill.
One could say that that could increase the fire risk, but so far this practise has shown to be very successful.

Veja uma das nossas soluções para reabilitação de áreas degradadas: colocação de casca de toros, descascados na nossa serração.
Pode dizer-se que esta prática poderá aumentar o risco de incêndio, mas até agora tem-se mostrado ser muito bem-sucedida.

With help of our friend and excellent botanist Bart Wursten we have managed to identify this beautiful bush right in front of our offices: Mundulea sericea!

Thanks Bart!

Several panga panga (Millettia stuhlmannii) office cupboards are nearly ready for delivery.

Despite the small team of carpenters working in our carpentry in Beira, we are very proud of their deligence and quality achievement in any product they prepare.

Keep up the good work team. Thanks for you effort and dedication!

Even though fire is important for the regeneration and growth of miombo woodlands, the consecutive burn of the forest year after year have exactly the opposite effect.

We are still accessing the impact of the fires that occurred in our concession a week ago under the most dry and hot period (44 °C) of the year.

Was it mainly bush fire? Canopy fire? Underground fire?
We do not have the access to the latest technologies, but visual assessment and few drone flights should give us an idea of the damage.

Hopefully our fire management throughout the year, by using cold burns and fire breaks might have helped to minimize the disturbance in the ecosystem.

Are trees social beings?
In this international bestseller, forester and author Peter Wholleben convincingly makes the case that, yes, the forest is a social network. He draws on groundbreaking scientific discoveries to describe how trees are like human families: tree parents live together with their children, communicate with them, support them as they grow, share nutrients with those who are sick or struggling, and even warn each other of impending dangers.

After reading this book, a walk in the forest will never be the same again.
🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳 As árvores são seres sociais?
Neste best-seller internacional, o engenheiro florestal e autor Peter Wholleben argumenta de forma convincente que sim, a floresta é uma rede social. Ele baseia-se em descobertas científicas inovadoras para descrever como as árvores são como famílias humanas: os pais vivem juntos com seus filhos, comunicam-se com eles, apoiam-nos enquanto crescem, compartilham nutrientes com aqueles que estão doentes ou com dificuldades e até se avisam de perigos iminentes.

Depois de ler este livro, uma caminhada na floresta nunca mais será a mesma!
