Tree seed supply for forest and landscape restoration |
The purpose of this survey is to:
(1) Assess practitioners’ capacities in sourcing and producing tree seed and seedlings for forest and landscape restoration (FLR)
(2) Identify capacity development needs to improve the availability and quality of tree seed and seedlings for restoration targets
The survey is intended for:
- FLR practitioners involved in planning or implementing tree seed collection, seedling propagation, buying or selling planting material in FLR projects or programmes
- Organisations, companies and individuals who supply tree seed or seedlings to FLR projects.
The results will be used to design capacity development tools and activities to help restoration practitioners source fit-for-purpose seed for their project needs.
‘Seed’ is used to refer to any type of planting material, including seed, seedlings, wildlings or vegetatively propagated material. Projects or programmes with any objectives or using any restoration method are invited to respond.
The survey is carried out by the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT in collaboration with the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
Completing the survey takes approximately 15-30 mins, depending on the type of activities you are involved in.
