HARIT Aaykar (Hariyali Achievement Resolution by Income Tax) Initiative
Nov. 1, 2022
HARIT Aaykar initiative recently launched by Income Tax Department for increasing greenery and creating micro forests
About:
It was launched on the occasion of National Unity Day to increase greenery and create micro forests.
Under this initiative, the Income Tax Department resolves to increase the green cover by planting trees and creating micro-forests in and around Income Tax Department's buildings and other public areas.
Micro forests:
A micro-forest is a small, planted forest that maximises tree density and biodiversity.
The Miyawaki method, which was devised by Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki in the 1980s, is a technique to create micro forests over small plots of land.
Achieving this goal requires planting a wide variety of plants in a fairly dense manner so that the plot of land has different layers of a forest such as shrubs and canopies and not just trees.
Plants typically require anywhere between eight to nine months of care before reaching a point where the micro forest becomes self-sustaining.
