- Observation Pinus halepensis regenerated readily after relief from goat grazing.
- Recommendation Artificial regeneration is needed where too few Pinus nigra seed bearers remain after fire.
- Recommendation The authors judge reforestation impossible until herbaceous colonizers reduce soil movement on denuded high altitude land.
