Key lessons
Restoration of the riparian forests requires careful selection of reproduction material (origin of seedlings and preparatory care). Integration of the measures in forestry planning documents is necessary to guarantee long term preservation of the restored habitats. Follow-up cares for the young forests and removal of invasive species are necessary.
