Recultivation after the Peat Mining at Branský les I.

The contribution describes a recultivation process after peat harvesting in the Bransky Les I. location. The recultivation of peat bogs is one way to increase the volume of water in nature. This practical experience shows how complicated it is to achieve this goal. Harvesting of peat was finished in 2018. The process of recultivation was started in 2019 and finished at the end of 2020. Nowadays, in 2024, the locality was visited to see what has happened in the last six years after the end of harvesting.

Keywords: recultivation of peat bogs, peat harvesting
