      back in the 1990's I was involved in a project in TX that started in 1930. It was a 90 year project, but one site reverted back to having springs on the property. One was a total abject failure by 1970.

    The plants will pull the moisture to itself changing the climate in a positive way. The plants will also give out oxygen into the atmosphere. The plants will also create soil out of sand as they drop leaves. Very exciting as the deserts around the world have been growing and becoming unsustainable and as world population is also growing.

      Looks like they were trying out a variety of trees each with there own plantation to see how each developed and what effects each has on the eco structure, The deciduous trees appear to be surrounded by more grasses than the pines, maybe something to do with deeper roots holding more moisture in the ground and the leaves dropping, providing more bio mass to form soil and hold moisture, Pines have a shallower root system which takes up a lot of the surface water and don't drop so many leaves, pines also create very acidic soil which is not good for a large variety of plants.

      @@spiritanimal7516 Mesquite is ok in a managed area, like a garden or a farm, where you can use it for mulch before it spreads its seeds. Once it escapes to the wild it is a HORRIBLE pest that lets nothing else grow, injures animals and people, sucks water dry and kills the remnants of any native plants that might have yet survived. The point of such plantations is to prepare the conditions for other species to grow in a decade or two with no human management. Once the pioneer species survive the seedling stage, you can come back and add a few other species if you want to speed things up or just move to another area and use your resources optimally.

      @The Guru of Kang if the box is open after some time, doesn't it mean that we need to provide constant water supply to the trees afterwards? if we have a constant water supply infrastructure why would we need those boxes? (no offence, im no farmer or so. I am just curious)

    Great result! Now continue this with a variation of ten different species (three are in my eyes still too much like a monoculture), and maybe not plant in rows. So this can become a forest, resembling a natural one.

    • @rubbermallet3873

      rows are a necesity to acumulate more moisture, better irrigation absorption, cleaning etc
      later, when the woods grew up then the landscape will change dramatically with rain, rivers, flora & fauna .. etc 😍

    Felicidades por este proyecto realmente es gratificante ver que haya humanos que se preocupen por reforestar a la madre tierra, deberian probar con el ficus microcarpa es una arbol que se adapta a cualquier clima,seria en mi opinion una especie idonia para reforestar, pues es un arbol caducifilio, produce abundante capa de materia organica y crece en suelos humedos y secos en zonas bajas y altas he tenido esa curiosidad de observar y pensado en una planta para reforestar.
    Si bien quieren creer que vean el video de como hacer nacer agua o como cultivar agua o usar el agua viva.

    • @hahahuy8636
      @hahahuy8636 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Se usa el pino porque crece muy rápido y los políticos no piensan en sus proyectos a largo tiempo, por lo que para asegurarse de que se llevan el mérito y así tener más votos las próximas elecciones usan estos árboles. Por eso en Madrid y en todas partes los están utilizando. El problema esque realmente es un árbol muy invasivo y dañino ya que las ojas de esos árboles tienen una sustancia ácida que elimina todo resto de vegetación (así no tiene competencia) y si los pones en exceso inutiliza el suelo. Por eso si te acercas a un Pinar veras que en todo el suelo no hay nada. Es algo que a la larga va a ser negativo porque los políticos son incapaces de mirar por más de 4 años

      @@AndresLopez-jo9xd pues obviamente no hay un árbol concreto para toda España, depende de la zona pero siempre habría que mirar hacia vegetación autóctona. En Madrid por ejemplo las Encinas puedes sobrevivir ya que es una tierra muy rocosa, árida y prácticamente de granito (pobre en minerales), lo que pasa es que estas se quedan muy pequeñas y tardan mucho en crecer. Además la solución siempre está en la variedad no sólo en un árbol. Espero haberte iluminado.
