Summary
This online training program aims to provide best practice guidelines on nursery establishment and forest seedling propagation for staff members from oil palm plantations working on riparian rehabilitation. These rehabilitation efforts are focused on conserving and restoring forest within degraded High Conservation Value forest areas managed by the plantation companies. This training event was intended to be a field course but will be conducted online instead due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
