Natural rainforest in the tropics highly diverse in tree species. Continuous loss of these forests and subsequent replanting leads to the creation of large areas of planted forests which primarily rely on few species creating stands of low functional diversity. A different approach to reforestation, the so called rainforesttation, has beed developed in Leyte, Philippines in the mid-1990s. This scheme to reforestation emphasizes mixed stands and the preferential use of native species supplemented by friut trees. The approach is cosidered promising and future extensions are planned.
