Bio-diversity

As human impacts and pressure on nature increase near settlement areas, there is an urgent need to take preventive measures and sometimes even experience more strict actions to stop continued depletion of grassland and trees near villages and small towns, where people easily reach outskirts and deteriorate the nature practically every day around year. The project is funding a local NGO`s initiative to establish a community garden in the right bank Haraa river near Darhan town with future intension to create a recreational green zone. A 8 ha area in the right bank near Darkhan has been taken under a strict protection to see how the nature rehabilitates itself. Moreover, about 1500 fruit seedlings were planted in the protected area to make the protected area as a community recreational zone for Darkhan residents. After one year some good results have emerged. Hundreds of willow trees have grown themselves naturally as the field is protected and hay making was stopped.
