We hosted a day dedicated to local farmers to share insights from our belowground biodiversity work with Malang University. Participating in various activities, they explored how 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀, 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗶𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘀𝘀 play vital roles in improving soil health.

The results of our research are now available. Our findings reveal how **earthworm diversity and activity significantly improve soil structure**, water retention, and nutrient cycling, all critical factors for sustainable crop production in Sumatra.

A White-throated Kingfisher (Halcyon smyrnensis) was detected by the acoustic devices installed on the field by Biometrio.

With the acoustic monitoring equipment installed by Biometrio, we were able to detect and record vocalizations of a Picus puniceus, commonly known as the Crimson-winged woodpecker.

Our inventory of above-ground and below-ground biodiversity in West Sumatra continues to expand. Phototraps carry out above-ground inventories, with stunning results.

Our above – and belowground biodiversity inventory in West Sumatra is giving first results. Soils and earthworms are analysed in the lab of Malang University. The bioacoustics and camera traps do above-ground inventories, with unbelievable results.

Our team is building a new nursery adjacent to the old one, thereby doubling the size of the nursery to 0.5 ha. This will allow us to raise around 400,000 seedlings during one cycle.

The NOAH Conference just concluded, where we had the opportunity to share our work at the project stage and get together with restoration and conservation champions, tech companies, and impact investors.

With several years of erratic rainfall, bad rains, a continuous supply of seedlings from our nursery, combined with farmer solutions, trying to beat dry spells during the rainy season, we believe that we can fight climate change.
