Oman’s Environment Authority is taking proactive steps to protect and document its native tree population. The Environment Department in Al Dakhiliyah Governorate, in collaboration with the Municipality Department in Bahla, has launched the third and final phase of a project to inventory and document perennial wild trees in the Wilayat of Bahla. This initiative aims to install metal plates on some perennial wild trees in the area to determine their spatial distribution and raise awareness about the environmental, economic, and social significance of these trees among the local community and visitors to the Sultanate. The project also aims to promote the culture of planting local trees while preserving existing ones and increasing awareness about the importance of preserving them.

The focus of this project is on perennial wild trees which are a crucial source of seeds for several local species that are part of the national initiative to plant 10 million trees. In addition to their role in providing seeds, these trees play a key role in moderating the atmosphere, absorbing carbon dioxide, reducing dust, and providing food and shelter for various creatures. By enhancing knowledge through modern technical means, the project also aims to reduce the need for printing books and paper publications, which often leads to deforestation. The Environment Authority is seeking to engage the community as a true partner in achieving sustainable development goals and conserving natural resources.

The project in Bahla is a part of wider efforts by the Environment Authority to protect the environment and preserve Oman’s natural resources. By documenting and inventorying the perennial wild trees in the Wilayat, the Authority can better understand the distribution of these trees and the importance of preserving them. Through this project, the Authority is also working to educate the local community and visitors about the environmental, economic, and social benefits of these trees, and to encourage the culture of planting local trees as a way to protect the environment and enhance biodiversity.

The efforts to inventory and document wild trees in Bahla are crucial for the long-term preservation of Oman’s environment. These trees serve as habitats for various species, provide essential ecosystem services, and play a significant role in maintaining biodiversity. By increasing awareness about the importance of preserving these trees, the Environment Department and Municipality Department in Bahla are working towards the sustainable management of natural resources in the region. The installation of metal plates on these trees will not only aid in determining their distribution but will also help in monitoring and protecting them from threats like encroachment and illegal logging.

In addition to their environmental benefits, perennial wild trees in Oman also have economic and social significance. They provide valuable resources such as food and shelter for wildlife and contribute to the overall health of ecosystems in the region. By spreading awareness about the importance of these trees, the project in Bahla hopes to engage the local community in efforts to conserve and protect them. The Environment Authority is committed to working with the community as a partner in environmental conservation and sustainable development, and the project in Bahla is a testament to their dedication to preserving Oman’s natural heritage.

Overall, the project to inventory and document perennial wild trees in the Wilayat of Bahla is a crucial step towards protecting Oman’s environment and conserving its natural resources. By raising awareness about the importance of these trees and promoting the culture of planting local species, the Environment Authority is making significant strides in sustainable development and environmental preservation. Through partnerships with local communities and stakeholders, the Authority aims to ensure the long-term sustainability of Oman’s ecosystems and biodiversity. By using modern technology to enhance knowledge and reduce environmental impact, the project in Bahla is setting a precedent for responsible environmental management and conservation efforts in the region.
