Project in East Tyrol

Reforestation from the air: drones scatter seeds

The province of Tyrol is using a special method to promote reforestation in East Tyrol. Around 250 kilograms of seeds have now been scattered in selected areas. This project is not the first to be carried out using special aircraft.

It is a special pilot project designed to promote reforestation in East Tyrol. Storms and bark beetles have taken their toll on the local forests in recent years. In order to reforest inaccessible sections, drones are now flying over numerous municipalities.
