MANGROVE PLANTATION |
The
Mangrove trees planted over the coast
line would serve as the natural habitat
for fish like Mud-Skipper, Prawns and
birds like Kingfisher, Log Horn, Curlews,
Waders, Humming Birds and Seagull etc.
The plan is to develop a Mangrove plantation
in front of our plant shoreline. This
plantation will serve as a breeding nursery
for fish and prawns which will attract
birds.
