Assisted Natural Regeneration of Hedges

Key Points

• The aim is to explore the effectiveness of assisted natural regeneration in establishing hedges using existing plant species.
• Identified areas where hedges can regrow naturally.
• Encouraged growth of native plant species without direct planting.
• Monitored growth over a specified period to assess regrowth success.
• Successful regrowth of hedges observed in multiple test sites.
• Increased biodiversity noted as more local species thrived.
• Reduced costs compared to traditional planting methods.
