Mangrove Reproduction by seeds and Nodes at La Rinconada Swamp in La Pacha, Magdalena

The project to plant mangrove seeds and nodes in the
swamp is based on the study of mangrove forests. Its objective is
to reproduce native mangroves by means of seeds and nodes in
nurseries to repopulate the banks of the La Rinconada swamp
at La Pacha, Magdalena, and to use it as a pedagogical tool on
the conservation of water resources and wildlife once the plants
have reached an adequate stage of development. The study was
approached from a qualitative perspective. The instrument used
in the initial stage was a structured interview performed with
students at the La Pacha School. The main conclusion is that
the student community is aware of the benefits that mangroves
offer to biodiversity, and the main task ahead is to get them involved in the process and motivate them to do something with
the knowledge they have acquired; in other words, to get them
to plant mangroves.
