Triage et récupération des petits arbres tombés

Tim Motis et Luke Little

Extrait:

Cherchez des arbres avec des troncs intacts. Un arbre avec un tronc fendu peut être trop instable s’il est redressé. Recherchez également des arbres dont les racines sont encore attachées aux troncs. Si le système racinaire est détaché du tronc principal, il n’y aura aucun moyen pour l’arbre d’absorber l’eau et les éléments nutritifs. Enfin, recherchez des arbres suffisamment petits pour être soulevés en toute sécurité par la force humaine et/ou l’équipement disponible. Appliquez une marque ou une couleur unique sur les arbres à sauvegarder ; cela permet aux travailleurs de savoir sur lesquels concentrer leurs efforts en termes de protection des arbres.
