Mimusops elengi as the dominant species planted and they complied with the urban forest health status guideline, whereby a diverse tree population might slow or prevent the spread of insects or diseases, and in the event that such pests should become established, the impact on a diverse tree population may be less severe In Borneo there is a lot of rainfall and this also helps to revive existing crop. | |||||||||||||
2. | Through the use of low maintenance plants and strategically planted plants , UNIMAS strive to create beautiful and eco-friendly outdoor spaces that not only conserve water but also contribute to a more resilient and sustainable campus environment.In programs such as tree-planting events, indigenous tree species are chosen because native plants have adapted to the soil and climate conditions, requiring less watering. Among the tree-planting events that have chosen indigenous species to be planted in UNIMAS is Tagasako-Unimas Educational Forest . | |||||||||||||
