Implementation activities
2015:
Counting of the Japanese acacia specimens on the sidewalks; Establishment of relocation / transplantation sites; Location of pits; Digging of pits; Extraction of Japanese acacia with the original soil; Packing of earth bales with wire mesh (tightly packed on the bale);
Transportation of acacia trees to planting pits;
Expansion of planting pits, as long as paving of pavements allows;
O Removing all root remains found in the soil; Transport of lime trees to pits; Disinfection of lime trees with Bordeaux broth;The placement in the bottom of the pits (after measuring the height of the ground bale) ; Place the lime in the pits, with the COLLET at the same level as in the nursery, in a vertical position; Required watering, for compaction / settling of land without air voids; (5)
