The installation of mini-greenhouses for growing seedlings with a closed root system will appear in three forestries of the Krasnoyarsk Territory under the national project “Ecology”, the regional forestry ministry reports.
According to experts, such seedlings have almost 100% survival rate. More than 15 million rubles were allocated for the construction of greenhouses. A total of five mini-greenhouses will be installed. It is planned that this year two more will be built in two more forestries of the region. Next year, two more greenhouses will also appear on the territory of two forestries.
Planting seedlings with a closed root system began last year. However, the problem was that they had to purchase materials from outside organizations. Mini-greenhouses will increase productivity up to seven million seedlings per year.
The national project “Ecology” is aimed at improving the efficiency of waste management, drastically reducing the level of air pollution in large industrial centers, as well as preserving the unique flora and fauna of Russia. National projects initiated by Russian President Vladimir Putin started in 2019.
