Abstract
Eco-mixed Seeding and Planting Method, the technical skill to introduce diverse native species distributed around the site by seeding and planting seedlings, was developed in order to regenerate forests close to natural composition of tree species and their gene pool, through natural selection. In the former experiments, mainly introduced plants by direct seeding, light seeds, most of which was born by pioneer trees, could not survive. Therefore, we developed the technique to plant several seedlings (1 or 2 years old) by pots and the mulching technique using macadam and wood chips to prevent the obstructions against the survival of the seeds and seedlings, as drying, erosion and invasion of herbage. In accordance with the application of public involvement on regeneration of nature-rich forests, we clarified the possibility to save the cost for planting and maintenance and to increase public interests.
