Sustainable management of wild-harvested plants is crucial. 🌍 Our study is a first national step, showing both richness and risks. We need stronger coordination and regulations to secure these resources.

🌿 Doing science deep in the #Congo rainforest?

Lucette Adet, postdoc at CREAF, is doing just that with the European project #CoForFunc.

📍They need to walk 30 km to the field site!

👉 The goal: to understand how tropical forests grow, survive, and handle environmental stress like #drought.

Did you know that wild plant harvesting is an ancient practice that remains vital—from medicine to food and cosmetics? 🌿
Yet its ecological impact is overlooked. In a new study, we assessed 692 species in France (12% of the flora) to uncover drivers and conservation gaps.
