With the help of soil-cultivating implements, specialists from the Sevastopol forestry today cleared mineralized strips to protect them from fires. In 2023, it is planned to equip 10 km of such lanes in the forests, as well as clear and renew 1,977 km of existing ones.
Special equipment digs up the soil and frees the areas from grass, dry branches and old foliage, the soil is cleared to a mineral layer. A properly equipped mineralized strip helps in the prevention of forest fires.
