Many countries in the world are faced with two
diverse but interwoven challenges in the 21st century; feeding a growing
population and how to adapt to climate change. Changes in climate are
recognized as one of the major factors accelerating the degradation of land.
Thus, land degradation either caused by human being or natural factors is
still a continuous process and the coverage of forests is dwindling. To halt
the problem successful, restoration of forest ecosystems using native
species as healthy living systems, capable of adaptation climate change
requires attention. At the establishment phase, tree selection for
rehabilitation however, remains one of the least understood and most often
ignored components where rehabilitation has been done by using exotic tree
species. Therefore, to achieve the successful rehabilitation of degraded
lands, foresters and nursery managers need to reconsider the selection,
production, and out planting of native trees in a dynamic context instead of
the monoculture exotic plantation to create connectivity across landscapes
and building in adaptability for changing climates.
