Miyawaki Forest in Tripura grow billion trees
In the lush landscapes of Tripura, a remarkable environmental initiative is taking root, quite literally. The Miyawaki Forest, a concept pioneered by Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki, is transforming barren lands into thriving ecosystems. This method, known for its rapid growth and dense biodiversity, is gaining momentum in Tripura, offering a beacon of hope for ecological restoration. The Miyawaki method involves planting native species in close proximity, mimicking natural forests. This approach accelerates growth, with trees maturing in just 20-30 years, compared to the 200-300 years it takes for traditional forests. The result is a dense, multi-layered forest that supports a wide range of flora and fauna.
