Help forestry student!
Hello!
I need some help translating a Danish word into English. The word describes a kind of planting-technique we use to protect the new, small plants from predators, drought and spring frost. In the same hole as you plant the valuabel future tree species you put a less valuabel and more resistant species, the "mantle" (e.g. picea or pinus!). The idea is that the resistant species will grow up to cover the future species and hereby protect it from the harsh condition on a bare land. Over time the future species will take over and "outgrow" the mantle. We call this method "mantle-planting" (direct translation) but i need to know the right term in english/american or german if anyone knows! If you got experience or know about litterature on the subject I would be glad to here from you. Yours Sincerely Rasmus Dalhoff Andersen |
