Adaptation Actions

1 - 20 of 21

285 - Use contour planting to prevent soil erosion during floods or storms

286 - Practice minimal tillage agriculture

287 - Utilize vetiver grasses to hold and prevent topsoil loss from gardens

288 - Utilize animal manure to counteract soil nutrient leeching in rainy times

294 - Introduce and encourage wet tolerant species for seasonally waterlogged or low-lying areas.

295 - Undertake vegetative propagation to encourage rapid fruiting

296 - Utilize hormones to induce fruiting and flowering out of season

297 - Store seeds for use during low fruiting periods.

298 - Assess the fruiting calendars of different species in different climatic areas

299 - Protect of trees from rainfall/elements in green houses

300 - Practice anthropogenic fertilization (by hand) in cases where Rainfallinhibits natural pollination and fertilization

301 - Identify, select and plant varieties that fruit/flower at different times throughout the year.

302 - Develop, dessiminate, breed and encourage the use of rain-tolerate tree varieties

303 - Undertake grafting to ensure fruiting under controlled conditions

438 - Develop planting guidelines for each species to ensure planting in appropriate locations

439 - Identify and relocate important species to cooler locations.

440 - Plant new trees inside existing forests to exploit cooler temperatures

441 - Intercrop high canopy species in mixed planting with lower canopy species

442 - Encourage shading of germinants by mother trees

443 - Utilize shade cloths/nurseries to protect vulnerable seedlings and juvenile trees from excessive heat
