More than just the odd tree: report on incentives and barriers to rural woodland conservation, using grassy White Box woodlands as a model

Date Issued:1997-06-20

Abstract

This project has focused specifically on grassy White Box woodland because of its scarcity and the extent to which it has disappeared or been degraded through competition with other rural land uses. However, much of what comes out of this project is applicable to other forms of remnant vegetation, and in particular other Box woodlands. Grassy White Box woodlands can be used to build awareness of the plight of remnant woodlands, the loss of woodland trees and their equally important understorey communities. That awareness can then provide a focus for expanding targeted actions in rural communities for vegetation management on a landscape scale.
