Instead, it starts up a dense bush of new shoots from the remaining stump. This brilliant, low-cost ecological approach turns these wild shoots into a thriving new forest through a simple, three-step management process: selection, pruning and protection.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By gradually reducing the number of shoots and focusing the tree\u2019s energy on just a few dominant stems, a bushy stump is transformed back into a tall, valuable tree in a fraction of the time it would take to grow from seed.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;536730&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><b>Empowering Local Communities to Bring the Forest Back<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;156710&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Out of the reserve&#8217;s total area of 4,571 hectares, the project is using FMNR to restore 1,000 hectares of degraded forest in collaboration with local communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Farmers are at the heart of this sustainable approach. They learn to recognize the value of trees and how trees can improve their livelihoods and well-being. Through practical training in FMNR, they apply the technique in the field by selecting, pruning, thinning, and protecting tree sprouts to encourage healthy regrowth. \u201cThe future I see is a community-led restoration, where they can easily get involved, practicing on their farmland while also protecting Jubiya Central Forest Reserve\u201d , says Richard, project assistant at GFU.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image media=&#8221;14725&#8243; caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;135264&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;148732&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Australian agronomist <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/planetwild.com\/blog\/tony-rinaudo-interview\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tony Rinaudo<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, who developed the FMNR approach, emphasized, people\u2019s attitudes are key to restoring landscapes: When properly applied,\u00a0 FMNR can become a bridge between improved livelihoods and a renewed relationship with nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By empowering local communities in Masaka District, while building on the natural resilience of the landscape, the initiative is supporting the recovery of biodiversity, improving soil health, and demonstrating that nature already has the blueprint for its own recovery\u00a0 \u2013 it just needs a helping hand.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the Jubyia Forest in Uganda, a low-cost and sustainable land restoration technique known as Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) is being implemented in degraded areas.
