The significance of using native species in restoration projects lies in their adaptability and the ecological roles they play in their indigenous environments. Native species are well-suited to local conditions and can better support local wildlife, fostering biodiversity and stability in restored areas. They have evolved alongside local ecosystems, thus contributing to established food webs and interactions that non-native species may not replicate. Furthermore, using native species can enhance soil health and resilience against pests and diseases. This approach ultimately leads to more successful and sustainable restoration outcomes, benefiting both the environment and local communities.
