Since the advance of the agricultural front and the expansion of villages on the outskirts of Faro National Park in particular, people have modified natural ecosystems and used their resources. However, this modification is often synonymous with environmental degradation: intensive use of land, soil and water pollution, loss of habitats and biodiversity … Restoring land and reintroducing trees to landscapes, including existing forests, helps provide forest products, conserve biodiversity, improve hydrological flows and soil fertility, and limit soil erosion . To succeed in restoring the banks of the Faro National Park, the population must be made aware of the importance of conserving the area, limiting the expansion of crops on the banks and relocating agricultural plots over a perimeter of 50 meters from the course of water and reforest the banks of the park with agroforestry species beneficial to the populations.
