CONCLUSION
Based on the latest maintenance and validation activities conducted, it can be noticed that the survival rate of each planting site is slightly decreased. The decreased of survival rate is attributed to the long drought experienced in the TRWFR, particularly during the 3rd quarter of 2018. However, the survival rate of the planted seedlings is still more than 85% which is the minimum requirement set by BCWD for the Adopt-A-Forest Program. Replanting is scheduled on the 4th quarter of 2018 to replace the mortality and in order to successfully achieve higher survival rate.
