Community forest rangers patrol the Assisted Natural Regeneration (ANR) plots to provide regular advice to participating farmers and monitor their forest regeneration status. Between January and June, they visited 601 miombo conservation plots, covering 4226 km! This photo (above) was taken in Malembeka village, where this particular farmer, Bernadet M., was found to be following all ANR practices, including fire and apiary management, perfectly. She’s shown here standing by a ring-weeded tree where one of her 10 beehives is installed.
