For desert and dry arid regions, a plant called "Spekboom" of the genus Portulacaria, which is indiginous to South Africa, would be ideal. It is used to augment fodder for sheep,goats,cattle and wildlife. It can extract vaste quantities of C02-gas from the atmosphere. This makes it the ideal plant for mass-planting to assist in counter-acting the effects of climate change. A must for use in any greenbelt program to roll back desert regions.

Re Permaculture rain harvesting: In a place where there is less than 2 inches of rain per year (50 mm), the Al Baydha project is growing a forest in the desert too. The source of water is ....the sky. Rain. Yup. Look at the youtube Reversing the Cycle of Desertification. No need to use well water (depletes the underground water in acquifer) or river or sea nor truck water in from somewhere, nor do expensive desalination. Just use what you got. The area in the video above sometimes gets 0 mm of rain for several years. Yet they harvested 13.5 million litres of water when the rain came, using berms and 3.5 kilometers of swales. They had enough water to irrigate 2000 trees for 6 years without another rainfall. Oh yes, they will plant trees that provide fruit, wood, oil, shade, mulch (to keep moisture in soil) fodder for goats, sheep, camel, and flowers for bees to make honey. Will all be free to the inhabitants. Year after year.

Have a look at what Ernst Gosch is doing using eucalyptus to kick start food agroforestry. He basically chips up the biomass putting that into the soil to increase water and nutrient holding capacity and the trimmed trees also create a microclimate. As the forest ages the soil becomes carbon rich allowing higher food value species. All forest have a successional process so by using a species that produces large quantities of biomass that can do that in low fertility soil, it speeds up the process. Some people say they use up a lot of ground water but this isn’t really true because they are actually very shallow rooted. Anyway any water used is returned because the respiration action of a forest attract and create rain. You also get a night time dew condensing effect that would not happen if you have no forest. The other thing that you can do growing eucalyptus is trim them and make biochar with the branches. There are also many species that actually throw of limbs as they grow that you can simply pick up the branches off the ground and make biochar with those but you get a much greater yield if you trim the branches. This is permanent atmospheric carbon sequestration and the char holds a lot of nutrients and moisture plus is a great home for beneficial soil microorganisms. The mature logs can be harvested for high value timber as well.

+Red Guard1945 The thing is that once you plant trees they exude a few chemicals that actually attract water vapor in the air, changing the climate. Certain trees exude more than others. Pine trees and other similar trees exude less because they can drive their roots farther into whatever soil is available. The trees that loose their leaves are better nitrogen supplements to the soil. Their leaves will improve the soil as they compost in the winter. Evergreens tend to acidify the soil which does not encourage undergrowth of grasses. I am not saying that evergreens are not good at all but I am saying a variety of trees is a better Idea.

It has been done else where. It can be done here with careful planning. There are thousands of varieties of trees in the world. Some of them grew here originally. We must discover which they were. I am pleased to see permaculture ideas being used here, but don't let's get caught up in one family of trees.
