Protected areas should serve more than just scientists and MBG is proud to host the marathon "Trail d'Ibity" at the spectacular Ibity Massif #Madagascar. Well done to our team who completed the 12 km trail in record time (for us).
The field genebank adjacent to Analalava Reserve Foulpointe #Madagascar is like a mini botanical garden for the conservation of rare Malagasy trees. Useful but becoming very attractive.
At Analalava #Madagascar we are trying to develop a value chain for local people based on the production and sale of biodegradable nursery pots made from the bark of the troublesome alien invasive tree Melaleuca quinquenervia. Thanks @howellconserve
Research at Parc Ivoloina #Madagascar launched to help define best methods for growing native trees in difficult conditions: 50 individuals of 10 native trees planted under each of 4 treatments: +biochar, +shade, +biochar and shade, control. Thanks @MadaFaunaFlora.
More success with female nursery women at Bongolava: target produce 200,000 seedlings of native trees and out-plant over 75 ha of degraded dry deciduous forest. Thanks @UKBCFs
Make native forest restoration in #Madagascar even better by integrating threatened trees. Last 2 years restoration launched 77 ha at Analalava/Ankaraboalava/Tsihomanaomby by planting 257,585 young trees (267 sps) including 55,925 plants of threatened species. Tks F. Franklinia.
One of four planned nurseries now finished at Bongolava #Madagascar. Together (and with management by Fikambanana Bongolava Maintso) they will enable 320 local people to produce and plant 200,000 seedlings of native trees to restore 75 ha of burnt forest. Thanks @UKBCFs
Can biochar help restore native forest to degraded land in #Madagascar? We are testing it. First make the biochar: a) break up charcoal made from alien invasive trees; b) soak in water 24 hours; c) soak in urine for 24 hours; d) dry; e) compost with cow manure. @MadaFaunaFlora
This already degraded part of Analalava Forest #Madagascar burnt in 2022. In these sunny and windy conditions we are testing whether locally made tree guards can improve the survival and growth of out-planted tree seedlings. Thanks Fondation Franklinia and @FAPBM.
This plant (Calantica sphaerocephala), now safe in the ex-situ conservation collection at Parc Ivoloina, is classified as EN and known from just 2 forest fragments in NE #Madagascar – one of which, at Ambatobiribiry, has been almost destroyed. Thanks @NatGeo + @MadaFaunaFlora
Evaluation for certification of restorative endeavors under the Global Biodiversity Standard #Madagascar includes consideration of soil quality using Berlese Funnel, soil coring for carbon content, water infiltration and earth worm counts. @UKBCFs @bgci
Impeccable nursery for native trees and fruit and spice trees managed by women's association adjacent to the Makirovana-Tsihomanaomby Protected Area #Madagascar. Thanks @UKBCFs + @FmhlMadagascar
Charlotte Taylor has named 500 plant species — more than any other living female taxonomist. The @mobotgarden scientist joined @STLonAir to share her insight into solving the mysteries of the plant world. ✍️: @D_Towski bit.ly/3OKRqV8

Fantastic talk by Rudy Aguilar of the Belize Botanic Garden on community #agroforestry at the #BotanicalBridges Congress 2024. #biodiversity
To sustainably manage tree species under pressure by over-exploitation, it’s important to understand key life history traits. #Conservation #biodiversity sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
The #BotanicalBridges conference has started in Cartagena! MBG is here to engage with our colleagues and partners in botanical gardens across Central America and the Caribbean to advance botany and conservation 🌱🌳 @mobotgarden

Surely modern graffiti can help understand the drawings of our prehistoric ancestors. In the south of Madagascar walls and here a trunk are frequently embellished with zebu cows – often with exaggerated fat-storing humps.
More success with female nursery women at Bongolava: target produce 200,000 seedlings of native trees and out-plant over 75 ha of degraded dry deciduous forest. Thanks @UKBCFs
Nice new signs for the field gene bank at Analalava Forest #Madagascar. Note Analalava's very own ebony species. @MoBot_Research
